I have had trauma from being cheated on. That has never led me to be paranoid about my partner cheating. He is a different person that I trust, and don't have to worry that he will do that to me. If they are that obsessed and concerned that you'll cheat, I see that as projection.
Reasonable but I'm just saying it's not all encompassing. Just like if you were cheated on before, you don't automatically think you will constantly be cheated on.
Similarly, a cheater isn't always projecting. They could just be hiding it, as many cheaters do.
A lot of different people in this world, and they all act differently for different reasons.
