For the most part, as long as you both have good communication surrounding her moods and feelings, and just overall a quality relationship, I believe strongly that your girlfriend can remain faithful in the future. Just encourage her to continue seeing her doctor. I've been in my current relationship for 13 years and have remained faithful physically and except for 3 phone calls, emotionally. Good luck to you both. A good relationship can be very rewarding and I wish you the best.

That is really nice of you. Thank you so much.
Part of me really believes when she looks me in the eyes and tells me she would never do anything to hurt me. She knows how I have been hurt in the past and she knows I am sensitive about her past as well. She's an amazing girl and I guess my own anxieties are my problem. She's the type of person who is intelligent, but is impulsive, so not always wise. I guess that makes me a little uneasy. But I don't think that necessarily means she would do anything to put our love in jepordy considering how much it means to her.
