Only trust people as far as you can throw them.
I was in a similar situation a couple of years ago with my girlfriend. At the time, we'd only been seeing each other for a little over 2 months and she had already planned a trip to Cuba with two of her friends; one of which is a complete nympho. As you can imagine, one week in Cuba is straight partying day and night and despite how much she told me nothing would happen and that she was all mine, I was still stressed out the entire week back home. My friends tried to reassure me that she wouldn't do anything stupid and she's a smart girl but I was just set on being on a downer.
When she returned, I found out that nothing happened from her other friend. I was really relieved to hear that.
I guess what I'm saying is that you don't owe your boyfriend trust; he needs to earn it. If he hasn't done anything to show you that you can trust him, don't. If he has, you need to keep tabs. Sure, everyone lies but there are such things are white lies that people hold against each other in order to prevent greater hardship. now, I don't supposed lying about porn constitutes a white lie nor do I know how lying about it could have saved you from being hurt from something else but you can't be sure until you confront him about it. You never know.
All I'm saying is lies aren't always made with foul intentions. Don't even assume anything in a relationship. If you're not sure, ask your partner.
Don't give them your trust until they earn it.
