We’ve been going strong for more than two years now. I recently learned from a mutual friend that she had a boyfriend. It so turned out that she dumped him without giving any good reason and started going out with me. I was of the opinion that she was always single. I don’t want to flatter myself by thinking that she gave up somebody just for me. The thought that’s troubling me now is if she’s capable of repeating the same with me someday in case she find someone else.
