Hello Balance100: I see you posted this Thread back on September 3. I'm sorry you're only now being greeted! Welcome to PsychCentral… from the Skeezyks! I hope you find the time you spend here to be of benefit.

I don't know as I have anything particularly useful to offer you in terms of your predicament. I understand how you feel. But, what's done is done. Your girlfriend can't take back what she did. From what you wrote, it sounds as though she does really regret it. I think all you can do is to take her at her word that it will never happen again, unless or until, you get evidence to the fact that it has happened again. If that should occur, then perhaps you will have to consider if this young woman is worth the time & resources you have given to her. Sometimes we simply have to live-&-learn, as the saying goes. I will just mention that I didn't understand the part about your girlfriend's aunt & niece. So I can't comment with regard to that. Perhaps it may help you to sort all of this out in your thoughts if you continue posting, here on PC, with regard to your concerns.

PsychCentral is a great place to get information as well as support for mental health issues. There are many knowledgeable & caring members here. The more you post, & reply to other members’ posts, the more a part of the community you will become. Plus there are social groups you can join & chat rooms where you’ll be able to connect with other PC members in real time (once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved.) Lots of great stuff! So please keep posting!
