I dont know what to do!
I find myself loving a man I have only been with for 5 months. How is this so? He treats me good and my kids like him. He says he likes and cares for me but I still have my doubts. He says we must trust each other but I have been in two failed relationships due to cheating. So I have trust issues. He gets angry when I ask him questions, presuming that he's cheating. He says im insecure and to stop asking him questions. Sometimes I feel like backing up but at the same time I dont want to lose him. -

Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?

I'm glad. It's difficult finding someone that you can gel with so well but he's out there.
I say I'm glad because, he says he "likes" you not loves you that he "cares" for you not loves you and then you state he gets "angry" and he won't talk about things that concern you.
Perhaps you are in-secure, perhaps you do have trust issues but a decent man will see that and work with you over it, not get angry and certainly not say he likes and cares, rather is falling in love.
Or is.
He's out there Sasha.PUT A LITTLE 'LIKE' IN MY SOUL!Comment

Like Kitty, I went back and re-read your other posts. With him needing to know where you were at all times and then refusing to answer any of your questions, the inequality could certainly put a strain on the relationship.

Any reason that YOU can think of that he may not like constant questions as to whether he has been faithful? Or put it another way, do you think that this is something you should NOT ask him?I find myself loving a man I have only been with for 5 months. How is this so? He treats me good and my kids like him. He says he likes and cares for me but I still have my doubts. He says we must trust each other but I have been in two failed relationships due to cheating.

You need to ask yourself. Don't look to him, look at your actions. If you can justify them, well and good, if not....Comment
