Relationships

He’s sharing personal things with others?

I’ve just found out that my boyfriend has been sharing extremely private details about sexual conversations we’ve had with his work colleagues and possibly other people I don’t even know about... am I wrong to be upset about this?
I know people share things but he asked me to pass him his phone so I did and as I did the screen came up with a message from his colleague using what i’d said to him against me as a joke.. and he was laughing about it.

I told him I wasn’t happy but not sure if I’m overreacting now

He doesn't think he is in a relationship. For him what you share is casual. He wouldn't be so disrespectful otherwise. Ditch him.

Dump him. That is completely unacceptable and a betrayal to you.

Dump him OP. Just finish the relationship, it's just going to get worse.No one who cares about you, makes you the laughing stock with deeply personal information. He's humiliating you. He's treating you with contempt.

YANBU = you are not being unreasonable.
I'd be upset by what he's doing, I don't expect he;d like it if it was you doing it to him.

BIN! What an arsehole. You can't put up with this, or you're giving him a license to treat you how he wants. He's shown you what he thinks of you with his disrespect. Act accordingly and block him.

A healthy marriage is composed of windows and walls.
The windows, which must stay open, are between you and your spouse. This is how you communicate and pass intimacy, trust, secrets, and love. The couple may also have close meaningful relationships outside of their connection. However, the windows between partners and their other relationships should remain much smaller and not as transparent.
The walls are between the two of you (together) and the outside world. The wall gives your marriage privacy. No one should know more about your relationship than your partner, and any private information shared inside the marriage should not be shared with anyone outside it.


Not my words but ones that firmly believe in. He has disrespected you and your relationship.

He has been utterly disrespectful to you and you deserve someone better than this uncaring and hurtful person in your life. Send him packing OP. 🌷

Just be wary of him unblocking and trying to wheedle round you when he fancies a bit of sex. Best to block him back.

He's far too immature for a relationship, and totally disrespectful.

@twentyviginti this has made me chuckle because he’s actually just unblocked me? 🙈

@twentyviginti so he’s keeping me dangling basically by waiting for sex one day?

You ended it, so he's hoping the blocking was 'punishment' enough for you to want to go scuttling back and begging forgiveness the moment he unblocked. And yes, he'll want sex. He doesn't deserve sex with any woman, the way he is about them with his equally twatty mates.
