isn’t it possible that his ex wasn’t the girl for him?

I’ve been with my boyfriend for a while now, seven months. He has done a lot. I got a ring, card with pictures in it and we’re in Memphis right now living with his real mother for the time being until we decide to go back to Chicago where my mother is and where his step mom and real father is. His ex was hurt when she found out he was messing with me while with her and she broke up with him because of it and he never even put up a fight for her to stay. It may be hard for her to see, but she just wasn’t the girl for him. He never did anything of those things for her. The only reason he has hit her up a few times, though he hasn’t done it in like two weeks, was for sex. She never gave in though, one time she told him that she knows me and him are still together and to go and be faithful to me. He never really admitted to her that we are still together after she said that he just quit messaging her. He never said he missed her or anything. He missed her sexually. It’s not like he actually wants her back. If she was the one he truly wanted to be with he wouldn’t have cheated right?

Cheating on his ex isn't a criteria to determine if he doesn't want to be with her. Now, that he is with you and you assume he truly wants to be with you, he can still cheat on you with another girl.

So, hope that cheating isn't his nature, else he will cheat on you soon.

It's possible he loves you more than his ex. You are still new in the relationship with him, so you can't tell if he will stick with you.
