    What can I say to earn my boyfriends trust
    Ok,so I lied to a guy that really liked me,and I liked him, I lied to him where I was staying, I told him a girls house but it was a close guy friend of mine, he found out, and now he does not want any kind of relashionship with me, nor does he have trust in me, I feel horrible and I'm willing to gain his trust in me again, what should I do :( ?

    Hello d:

    Trust is like pregnant. You either HAVE it, or you don't. Once you lose it, you'll NEVER get it back.

    Hello again, dim:

    Sure, keep trying... But, you yourself KNOW, that once you've been lied to, you're NEVER going to trust that person COMPLETELY again. EVER!

    If your intentions were harmless, tell the guy you like that you were afraid he might be angry. If he doesn't believe you, there's really nothing you can do.

    However, lying wasn't the best choice. If someone wants to be with you they need to know the real you. If you have guy friends, the guy you are interested in needs to know that you intend to keep those friends and there is no reason not to distrust you around those friends.

    OP there's nothing you can say to win back his trust, you've got to show him, that you can be trusted, talk is cheap, actions are what's needed now.

    But don't hold out for it to work just like that it can take seconds to destroy trust but years to rebuild it.

    Whatever made you tell him lies, Honesty is always best.
