SO my dp of over 20 years has always been jealous
saying that i 'flirt' with men, and accusing me of cheating.
This has seemed pretty irrational .. I dont believe i am a flirt, and no one else has ever made that accusation, I have not, and would not cheat.
Well, this year I caught him out and it turns he had been in a relationship with another woman for the past 4 years. We are still together , and he has, apparently , ended that relationship.
I can pinpoint when it started as his jealous behavior towards me became much stronger..
One of his excuses for cheating was that he was convinced i was doing it so why shouldnt he?
Now ive been thinking, over the years hes had other phases where he suddenly. and irrationally became very jealous, so im thinking, has he cheated before?
he denies it.. But when he confessed to this affair he only confessed to a one night stand.. not a relationship spanning four years
it wasnt until i confronted her (family 'friend') that the truth came out. so i dont feel I can rely on his honesty (which has been a huge shock, i had no idea he was capable of this).
This is really weighing on my mind, and I feel like I want to ask around, and see if anything comes to light..
Should I ? or am I being paranoid now and will it just make things worse?
