DEAR DEIDRE: WHILE my girlfriend has forgiven me for having a one-night stand, her son says he\u2019ll beat me up if he sees me again.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m a divorced man of 39. My girlfriend is 41 and has a son of 23.\u00a0<\/p>\n
We met at a \u00a0festival last year. She was so chatty and I felt captivated by her. I couldn\u2019t resist asking her out for a drink.<\/p>\n
She agreed and we met \u00a0the next weekend in a pub. We had such a great time that we started dating.<\/p>\n
Her son lives \u00a0with his girlfriend nearby. My girlfriend lives with a dodgy landlord. She rents a room in his house and, because he doesn\u2019t work, he is always there trying to charm her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I sleep in the box room at my family home, where I still have an amicable relationship with my ex despite our divorce.<\/p>\n

There is nothing I would love more than to live with my girlfriend but we have not been able to afford a private rental together. <\/p>\n
It has caused huge arguments so we have ended up having a break.<\/p>\n
During our time apart, I had a one-night stand. It meant nothing. I told my girlfriend because I thought she deserved to know.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was devastated and felt I\u2019d cheated on her. But I\u2019ve never been unfaithful to anyone.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
Now I also have a new job, as a delivery driver, and things are looking better financially. I can afford to rent somewhere and I want my girlfriend to be with me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
We are talking again, and she\u2019s forgiven me but says moving in together would be impossible as her son won\u2019t allow it.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s furious because of what I did. I\u2019ve offered to talk to him, to prove my intentions are good, but he won\u2019t have it and has threatened me.<\/p>\n
DEIDRE SAYS:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>If you were only having a break to give each other thinking space, this was a huge betrayal.<\/p>\n As a young man with a single mum, your partner\u2019s son is bound to be protective, especially if she has been let down before. <\/p>\n You\u2019ll have to work hard to regain the trust of both him and your girlfriend.<\/p>\n Tell her that cheating was a mistake you\u2019ll never repeat, and you\u2019re sorry you hurt her. It is her life though, not her son\u2019s, and she has to convince him that your intentions are sincere. <\/p>\n My support packs, Standing Up For Yourself and Cheating Can You Get Over It, will help.<\/p>\n<\/picture>DEAR DEIDRE <\/span><\/p>\n
