Try your very best to wipe the slate clean for the both of you - you guys together doesn't have to end the same way. Worrying about it happening and your insecurities will not stop her cheating again - if she is going to do it, she will, so you're kind of putting yourself through a self-inflicted hell here. There is no point thinking the worse if you see her dance with other men, or talking to other men - the first perhaps she could avoid, but the second is pretty much unavoidable so please try not to let jealousy ruin what you have.
If you're struggling with this, perhaps try therapy? If she has issues too, perhaps couples therapy? If you can't see a way out then perhaps it would be better to split up before you get even more emotionally involved. Prob is tho, that the next lady you would meet may never had cheated before, but it's no guarantee that she never will. It can always be a risk, but sometimes someone is worth taking a leap of faith for and letting yourself trust again.
Wish you luck.

Yes I am seeking counseling for it. I know that it's my problem and I know that she has not given me a direct reason to distrust her. You mention dancing, I just find something inherently wrong with dancing with the opposite sex if you are in a relationship. A man is not going to walk up to you and ask you to dance because you have nice shoes on. It's because he wants you, so knowing that why would you want to dance with him? That is the question I always find myself asking.
