Moving Forward and Growth.

Hello I’m in desperate need of advice so ...

I’m sorry for how long this is! :)

i am 17 years old. i actually was wondering if i could get some advice about my relationship with my boyfriend.

Everything is going well, and we love each other so so much. He is my best friend and i literally could tell him anything. We have been together for about a year and four months now...

However, in October we had a big break for about 6/7 weeks and we broke up in that time as we went through a rough patch and it was VERY hard for the both of us. During our breakup, Keiran made a mistake and he spoke to another girl whilst we werent together. Although this isnt cheating, it hurt me so much because i felt like he went behind my back and it hurt me so much.

Fast forward...to now. We are really happy with each other and from October to now, it definetely did take quite a while to get used to things again and build up that comfort and trust with each other. Most of the time, things are always well and happy its just that sometimes i think about what has happened and i get really upset and we can fall out a tiny bit about the situation that happened in October.

We dont really know how to properly move on from it. I know time is the best healer, and it really has healed me and him and us together as a couple. However its just sometimes i just wish we could fully get over it and just MOVE ON.

We have agreed to not mention it a lot otherwise how can anyone grow and move on if we keep on talking about it. We decided this yesterday when i saw him. and we have decided to definetly focus on the positives more. But im just not sure what else we can do?

im wondering if you have any other advice? Also, some of my friends know and they are quite unsure as well on what to do. i dont want to tell my dad or sister because i dont want them to always know about my relationship problems because its private.

Let me know💚
