Cheating/lying men

[milly84]

I have been with my man for nearly 3 years. He is 24 this year and I am his 6th sexual partner (which I don't think is a lot for a guy, opinions appreciated on that please!!!!). I recently found out he lied to me a few times about silly things such has going off a few days/nights for a sneaky smoke (coz I previously said I would leave him if he ever smoked!) So he finally admitted it (thanks to his and i confronting him!), he cried etc, told me I was better off without him and said he only lied coz he was afraid I'd leave him. We are still together but it always hurts me bad when I think about it, not so much the fact he smoked but the fact he lied to me.

 

I get scared now coz I read that men that will lie about something will lie constantly, and although I have never thought of it before I get scared he will lie about other stuff or even cheat! He has promised to tell me every single thing, and I do see him every night but can't help but always think 'he's lied before, he could lie again'. He has been cheated on quite a lot in his past relationships and said he would never ever cheat on anyone, and says that he would certainly not do something that he would not want done to him. But I have heard that if guys are offered sex etc they will definitely take it, even if they have a partner. Now how true is this? Are all guys like that? Guys out there would you cheat on your partners for any reason? What should I think about him lying to me?
