I agree, its something one shouldn't do in a relationship.

She needs to decide what recourse to take.

.

Trust is where she would trust him enough to not invite a woman to his hotel and have lunch behind her back.

All trust is gone once he does this.

This guy is nothing more than scum in my eyes, whether he cheated or not.

She doesn't NEED to make any accusations to let him know his conduct is unacceptable to her. All she needs to do is say "Your behavior is disrespectful of our relationship," and if he doesn't agree, proceed accordingly as she sees fit.
I believe, she already spoke to the bf about this, and he agreed to no further contact with this woman. I guess, its not enough....she seems bent on finding something.

I don't think still being upset with him means she is bent on finding something. Her trust was broken. That takes time and effort on both their parts to repair. And sometimes it's not reparable.

What is there to do? He's taking the necessary step/s by severing contact with this woman (as requested). Are you suggesting she keeps a tracking device on him, relinquish all mobile devices (clear of all passwords) until her cup of trust is refilled? because thats what its probably going to take to put her mind as ease.

The "cup of trust" doesn't necessarily GET refilled.

Or, more accurately, it often ceases to hold water effectively after breaking.

Here's the thing. He kept something from her. It was kind of a big deal. She doesn't trust him right now. If I were her, I don't know what I'd do. If I were him - I'd bend over backwards to try to earn her trust back. If that meant showing her all of my texts, checking in with her for awhile, etc. - I would do it. Not forever but until I had proved to her that she could trust me again.

Proud to say I am one of those rare women that's never cheated.

Directed towards the Op,

I have read through some of these posts and I will say....THE OTHER WOMAN IS NOT TO BLAME!! I ghet so tired of US women blaming the other woman!
NO ONE CAN MAKE SOMEONE DO ANYTHING THEY DO NOT WANT TO DO IN THE FIRST PLACE...


You stated that he was with someone else when he met you? Correct? Were you a bad person a ho? Or just not in the know that he had a g/f?

It could be the same thing with this girl....
You need to hold him accountable for his ****...
Bottom line?
He should have never engage a woman in a bar in any conversation
He should have never given her his number he is spoken for is the way you behave? With other men?
Why would he agree to lunch with a complete stranger?

You need to wake uyp and assess things for what they really are and make decisions
