So this is it. My boyfriend and I had this conversation a few weeks ago, and he suddenly told me about his bad habits that he’s working on—he says, “I cheat and I don’t know why.” I don’t know if that was a warning or if truly it was a bad habit (I don’t even know when cheating became a bad habit you can say like that, I mean he should be ashamed). As an overthinking person, my thoughts about the whole thing changed and I felt he’s not the kind of person I want to settle for. I had to reduce the way we communicate from my end by giving excuses and not giving updates about everything as I used to. The energy dropped, but I’ve been hurting. I really do love him. He’s been my friend for years and we just started dating this year. I don’t know what to do. I feel he cheats because I’m still a virgin (he said he cheats even before we started dating), but at the same time, sex doesn’t keep a man. What if I allow him and he doesn’t change? Another thing is, he doesn’t like us talking about it. Anytime I try asking him, he’ll say he doesn’t want to talk about it. I don’t even know where I stand. I’ve been patient for love, more than what he’s offering me. I’m 21. I’m so confused, ngl I couldn’t even tell anyone
