My relationship with my boyfriend has been absolutely wonderful. Recently, one of my guy friends from the past has resurfaced creating my boyfriend to question my devotion to him. He has been in similar situations before and has been cheated on in the past. Ive been open with him about our friendship in the past and Ive tried reassuring him that nothing would ever happen between me and my old best friend. My boyfriend feels guilty for questioning my faith to him and Ive told him I understand and I want him to talk to me. Ive also asked him to meet my friend from the past because I want the friendship back. Hes willing to meet this friend and I know he'd like him. My question is what can I do to prove to my boyfriend that he has nothing to worry about?

I think the only thing that really can reassure your boyfriend here is time. If you have his trust than you can hang out with your old guy friend, and prove that all that is between you and your guy friend is simply a friendship. Actions really do speak louder than words. You could probably say anything that came to you in your heart to try to prove your devotion, but he's only going to see it when it happens. I think it's a great idea that your inviting him out along with the two of you, maybe this way he can put his mind to rest.

Just try to be patient and understand where your boyfriend is coming from here. After a little while, you'll probably all end up hanging out together and having a great time. Best of luck!
