Dear Angela,
In my opinion, there's a simple answer to your problem. From what
you've said, it sounds like you (and all your friends) totally idolize
your boyfriend, and you're angry because he's betrayed you.
He's Not Ready To Commit
If your boyfriend is about the same age as you, he's probably in
the commitment phobic phase, which means that he probably doesn't
like the idea that he's settling down with you.
Nick probably thinks that after two years with you, the next step
is either marriage or a baby, and that can be quite frightening
for some guys.
This Isn't Just A Fling
There could be many reasons why he's cheated on you. The fact that
this has been going on for a year or more means it wasn't just a
drunken fling. Your boyfriend is obviously heavily involved with
this girl, if he's been sleeping with her for a year.
Moving In With Your Parents Is Best
I know you don't want to move back in with your parents, but it's
probably the best thing to do for now. Being in the same apartment
as him will only irritate you both after what has happened.
Find Out Why He Cheated
Find out from him why he's been having this affair, and what he
intends to do about it.
It's your choice whether or not you take him back, but in my opinion,
it isn't worth bothering.
It's probably something he needs to get out of his system while
he's still young, but you'll get hurt if you're in the middle of
it.
Good luck.
