In my case, Rebella is convinced I will get back with my first wife, despite knowing everything that caused us to divorce. My daughter lives with my ex wife but i have her from Friday night to Sunday night. I can guarrantee that my darling will be on Yahoo at 10pm Sunday(5am Dipolog time) asking me a thousand questions about what my ex said, what i said to her, blah blah blah.
No matter how many times i talk to her, and patiently explain that she has nothing to fear, her paranoia doesnt leave her and to be honest, i dont think it will.
So let me say here what i tell her, if all i wanted was a bit of fun, we wouldnt be married. I cannot change my past, i'm not going to ignore my daughter and for her sake i try and be friends with my ex. If you dont trust your partner, then the only one who gets hurt is you, because you spend all your time in fear, needless fear of something that doesnt exist. But no marriage will survive when there isnt trust, so you have to leap off the cliff and dive in, and until your betrayed assume your not going to be. I think you'll find you never will be and your relationship will be much more enjoyable for both of you.
Here endeth the lesson hehehe
