My partner is a supervisor in a high street shoe shop, last summer he cheated on me twice with little bunts from the store, at the time I ended up in hospital with a mental break (alot of this led up to this, home, work, him ect) with counselling - both together and just by myself, we have worked through this and stayed together, but he has just phoned to say he's in the pub with 'all the guys from work' I asked him who was there and got ' oh just Anna Sophie alexa becca and sammy' so no 'guys' just girls, including the two from last year.
I told him he's pretty much given up his right to go out with them, especially the two from before because of what he did and he's just had a massive go at me and told me he's not coming home tonight now, so my only guess is that he will be staying at one of their houses! AIBU presuming he shouldn't have the oppertunity to go out with these girls? It's our anniversary today and he knows I have restaurant reservations for us too :(

sorry for your troubles and stress

BUT not up to you to set controlling rules.sorry but if he is a poon hound and cant be trusted then no amount of dont do this or that will curtail him. maybe hes not that into a relationship with you.dont prolong your heartache if he isnt

Loved him? But now doesn't, just
Like that?
Oh, I know what you're saying- it's a bit iffy.
Come on though, be
Kind.
Some people just get over stuff, really, really quickly. And have brothers who are locksmiths.

MissJanuary · 30/06/2011 13:44

Kirsty12321 - I love you! Way to go. Stick to your guns, He is not worthy of you.

kirsty12321 · 30/06/2011 13:56

Tazmin I've never seen you post a single positive or even nice message so it doesn't really bother me that your still being a twat on my post, every knows how negative you are so people just ignore your posts as soon as they see them cause they're Boyd to be pathetic Smile

Well done Kirsty! One VERY VERY important point though, sorry if anyone has already mentioned it, but if your bank account was a joint one make sure that you ask the bank to remove your name from it so that it is just in his name, otherwise he can run up debts etc and you are jointly responsible for them.

This happened to a friend of mine and it's something you need to do ASAP, I really can't emphasise enough how important this is and that you must let the bank know quickly. Also any other bills that you may have in joint names that he can run up debts on eg. mobile phone, shared credit card. After all your brilliant work in getting shot of the Nasty Bastard (in the words of Bridget Jones!) I would hate to see you get caught out like that.

All the best for the exciting times ahead!

fishandlilacs · 30/06/2011 15:47

Very good advice from tractor op. You must get your name removed from any joint credit cards etc ASAP.

And..well done you.

essexmumma · 30/06/2011 16:10

Kirsty well done! What a strong, brave lady you are. I am so glad u did itGrin

The best but will be hen he begs for forgiveness and you can tell the dirty,cheating rat where to go! Go girl.

TheTruthNothingButTheTruth · 30/06/2011 16:14

You are still with him ? What is wrong with you ? Dump him before he comes home and throw his stuff out for him to collect.

PrettyMeerkat · 30/06/2011 16:15

Wow, what an arse hole! (not you, him!) You just can't be in a relationship with someone who thinks it's fine to go to the pub with 2 girls he's had flings with . . . on his anniversary! What an idiot!

Well done you for being so strong!

TheTruthNothingButTheTruth · 30/06/2011 16:20

Sorry about my last message, didnt read the thread, you have indeed dumped that arsehole. Great job!

AnyF · 30/06/2011 16:35

oh, I love it when women find their self-respect and kick these types numpties to the kerb

brilliant

AnyF · 30/06/2011 16:37

types of numpties

33goingon64 · 30/06/2011 21:17

Agree that it sounds as if he wants to break up but in cowardly fashion wants you to do it, hence giving you a text book reason. Don't waste your energy making a scene, just change the locks.

33goingon64 · 30/06/2011 21:20

Oops also didn't read the last page. Well done!

kirsty12321 · 30/06/2011 21:29

When I went to the bank yesterday I cleared my name from our accounts, We don't have any credit cards and I've got my landlord to remove him from the tenancy, he has learnt over the years that people have a certain number of chances from me and then I just completely erase them from my life and will never speak to them again! It's going to be hard but if i let my barriers down and take him back after taking such drastic action he'll never take my seriously again, good riddance I say! Grin
