From my box

Good Morning Ma,
Please I really need opinions on this. Hide my Id please.

I’ve been in a relationship with this guy for 2years+ (almost 3years) He’s kind, compassionate even to my family too, supports me in everything I do.. We can literally talk about everything concerning us. He isn’t rich but he’s comfortable for his age.
Though few months ago, I found out he was flirtinggg with another younger girl, I broke up with him because cheating is my deal breaker. He begged and begged and I later forgave him and told him that I won’t hesitate to walk away if it repeats itself. And even though I was so hhurt because I was loyal to him, I considered giving him another chance because of his numerous good qualities. And since then, he has tried so hard to be very honest and transparent to me which I really appreciate.

But the main issue now is that I just found out that he lied with his age from the very beginning. He told me he’s a year older than me which made it a bit hard for me to accept his proposal at first considering that I didn’t want to be in a relationship with my age mate at first, but his behavior towards me changed my mind. Now finding out we were born the same year and I’m even older than him with 2weeks+ is even more devastatinggg He opened up to me when we were having conversations about our future being that we’ve dated long enough and it’s the right thing to do.
He has been apologizing and said he was scared I won’t accept him because of this same age issue if I knew from the beginning.

I’m so confused on what decision to make because he ticks all the boxes on the qualities I want in a man. He’s mature for his age and doesn’t keep malice. We even hardly quarrel because of how he handles those issues. He fills me in on everything including his financial decisions too. I’ll be 28 in few months time.
I really need your advice on how to navigate this. I’m also seriously praying about it too.
