Dear Panel,

I am Confused & Angry, a 27 year old male who is currently in a relationship with a wonderful woman which has lasted almost 5 years.

She is Equally Confused & Angry, 22, bright, funny, adorable.

Nina, is a girl that I had the one-night stand with and Wally is the guy she had the one-night stand with.

We started dating on June 11, 1997. Neither one of us trusted the other from the very beginning as we both had been burned in the past. Things have been really rocky all along.

In August of 2000, she had a one-night stand and in retaliation, I had a one-night stand last Thursday.
What can we do to put the anger between us behind us and move forward in our relationship?
