I have been a serial flirt from my college days. The first guy I went out with was two-timing and we broke up. Next I just flirted with a couple of guys before I met my ex. It was a long-term relationship and we have had sex and we were getting closer to the point where I even told my parents about him. Then he broke up with me after he got a new girlfriend saying that I am bad and everything is my fault. It left me heart-broken and I went back to flirting till I met my current boyfriend. Initially when I met him, I didn’t have any intentions beyond friendship with him and even though I had given up on flirting before I met him, I was still in touch with a few people whom I had previously flirted with.

However when I started having feelings for my BF, i started edging out others from my life even as friends and finally when I knew I loved him, I completely cut ties with them. The problem now is that, have confessed to everything I had done so far in life to him. But I had lied out of fear in the beginning and now he couldn’t trust me anymore.

Moreover, he says I cheated by even talking to those people when we were friends and insists that some rumors spread by people that I’ve slept around a lot is true. Both of us are great together in all ways but these problems are killing us. We couldnt’t leave each other and we love each other with our whole hearts and yet I don’t know how to deal with this problem. I know I have made a lot of mistakes but I want to make him see that I love him and those rumors are not true. What should I do?
