Hello everyone! I'm new here and 24 years old mother and wife. Nice to meet you all!
I have a issue, it's between me and my partner. We are in relationship for over 2 years and when we started dating he mentioned about his ex-girlfriend, he told me details about her and the relationship. Later I found out that he had not one, but 2 or 3 girlfriends before me. For over a year I struggled with a lot jealousy about this and couldn't accept or pass over it. I just couldn't accept the idea that the man I love had someone before me, but I tried my best to try to live in the present and focus on us because there was no other way. Recently, like 1-2 months ago, he confessed to me that all those stories were not true and he doesn't even remember many of the things he said to me and that I'm the only woman he ever had. I was in shock and now it's super difficult to trust him again. I have to mention that he have childhood trauma, insecurities, trust issues and when I asked him why he did that he said he felt inferior, and he wanted to feel better about himself and that he saw me talking with various guys in social media and he was very jealous so he made up that story. Now I'm so confused and I want to trust him and pass over but it's so difficult. I feel I need a proof and so far I received a confirmation from his best friend that he doesn't know about any girl until met me. I have to mention that I got pregnant shortly after we started dating so this could be kind of a proof, plus other signs which can prove that but still, I feel I want him to take more responsibility for what he did but I feel he doesn't do that enough. And it's just too hard to believe, because all that story seemed true, like, too well detailed to be just made up. I don't know what to do. What do you think?
