After weathering two major cheating scandals withTristan Thompson,Khloé Kardashianwill be guarding her heart for a while.
“She just needs time,” says the source. “It’s going to take so long for her to rebuild trust with anyone.”
“This is the second time this has happened,” adds the source, referencing Thompson’sfirst cheating scandal. The basketball player made headlines last April when photos and videos surfaced of him getting close to other women just days before Kardashiangave birthto their daughterTrue.
Though she initiallyforgave him, they had been living apart since the fall and an insider recently told PEOPLE that things “never really went back to normal” between the couple.
“It will take her a long time to date again,” says the source. “A significant amount of time.”
Reports of Woods and Thompson’s tryst first surfaced in February. On March 1, Woods, 21, shared her side of the story in atell-all interview, claiming that Thompson kissed her at an afterparty at his house on Feb. 17. Though she adamantly denied having sex with him, she admitted that the next day, while she told her best friendKylie Jenner, 21, and Kardashian that she had been at Thompson’s house, shedidn’t disclose what had happened between them.

Kardashian initially slammed Woods on Twitter after the interview, blaming her forbreaking up her family, but softened her tone a day later andplaced the fault instead on Thompson.
“This has been an awful week & I know everyone is sick of hearing about it all (as am I). I’m a rollercoaster of emotions & have said things I shouldn’t have,” she tweeted. “Honestly, Tristan cheating on me & humiliating me, wasn’t such a shock as the first time.”
