Ask AI: I keep questioning my boyfriend about his cheating incident and he says He understands but it’s killing him to keep answering. What does this mean?

It sounds like your boyfriend is expressing distress over having to continually discuss his past infidelity. It can become emotionally draining for both parties to repeatedly go over painful memories, a sign that healing and trust rebuilding is a difficult process. However, open, sincere communication is crucial, but it is also just as important to not let past mistakes completely dominate every conversation or aspect of your relationship. If you find that you still require answers and reassurances, perhaps consider seeking help from a professional counselor or therapist who can guide this process in a constructive manner ensuring it beneficial for both of you.
