Dear Queenie,
My girl and I have been together for quite some time and things were good for a long time until I told her a lie.
She hasn’t been the same since I told her that I don’t talk with my ex-girlfriend, which I used to do, but she seems to think that there is something going on between me and the old girlfriend, but there isn’t.
Queenie, all I want is for everything to be the way it was. I love her but I don’t know what to do to prove to her that I am really sorry.—Don’t know what to do
Dear Don’t know what to do,
Your girlfriend thinks there is something going on between you and your ex because you lied. Her logic is: if there is nothing going on, why did you lie about it? And I am inclined to agree with her.
Things may never be the same again between you and your girlfriend. Once trust is damaged or destroyed, it is hard to rebuild.
All you can do is try to persuade her to give you another chance, never ever lie to her again, and pray that she will eventually find herself able to trust you again.
