I have been speaking to him for about 6 months.
His wife is pregnant.
We've shared pics, had video chats, spoken about everything for hours and made plans to meet.
I did not know any of this at the start, but now I do and I'm struggling to let go. I know I have to though.
Should I say something or just block him?

Just block. He’s an utter, utter, shit. He doesn’t deserve another second of your time. His poor wife.

You’ve been messaging someone with a pregnant wife for six months, but have only just found out his true circumstances? Have you never met?

No, just cut off contact. This man is a pig and probably has a small flotilla of other women on the go.

You know the answer, just block. No good will come of it

You owe him nothing whatsoever. Say “this isn’t working for me any more”. Block. Or just block.

Block him in every way possible. Leave nothing for him; he is a piece of shit doing what he's done and you have the choice now to be a part of his hideous behaviour or you can walk away, recover and move on.

How anyone can behave that way is beyond me, but his actions are his - now you know the truth you have to be responsible for your actions. Make it final and ensure he can't reel you in with any more of his lies.

Do you want to be a woman who has affairs with a married man? A man who is an irredeemable piece of shit who cheats on their pregnant wife and will undoubtedly cheat on you given half a chance?Are your levels of self-respect and standards really this low?

If so, crack on. If not then just fucking block him as you know you should. FFS.

Of course you should just block him, you know that.

How did it come about he told he was married and wife was pregnant?
He sounds like an utter low life.
You've been sucked in to his web and now you're finding it hard to get out but keep telling yourself this man has lied to you and his pregnant wife.
Block and delete. Don't give him any more of your time and just quietly grieve what you thought you had.

Chances are you’re not the only one, I’d get an std check up too.

Grow up, ffs.

You don’t need anyone here to tell you what you should do.

I think people are mad to feed your need for drama.

Why do some men just lose the plot when their wife is pregnant. I have seen this a couple of times now.
I would tell him its massively inappropriate and just walk away. Won't feel great as you have invested in this but its the only right thing to do.

You should block him immediately, no explanation, cold turkey. He's lying to his wife, he's probably (definitely) lying to you too.

The person you think you know doesn't exist, the fact he can do this to his wife means he has no decency.

There's no happy ending for anyone here.

You're struggling to let go so you'll do the back and forward dance if you don't block him completely. This will go on for a while and you'll become addicted and convince yourself of all sorts of silly things.
Make a positive decision for your own life. Look after yourself and put yourself first. Don't accept a half relationship based on lies.
Break the chain and block him.

How do you figure she's going after married men when she didn't know he was married?

How long have you known he is married?

Say something? Like what? What would you say to him?

Just block. The man you fell in love with doesn't exist. Don't wait for him to do the decent thing, he won't. Do it yourself, for yourself. Don't waste yourself on a lying philanderer. Even a charming one.
