Texts to DP from young barmaid!

[Cornishpasty2]

AIBU to be angry that my DP of 3 years regularly gets texts from a young barmaid at his local? He says Im crazy if I complain about it. I've given him ultimatums and we've even split up over it, but he wont tell her to stop texting him. Seem to enjoy the attention.
Advice and opinions needed Mumsnetters......

Thanks Rachel778, feeling a bit numb at the moment, not sure how I feel. Slowly but surely I'll improve I'm sure. It's been such a long time coming, but I had no choice, I was in danger of losing my self respect!

However bad you feel when you weigh up the pros and cons of being with him you will know you've made the right decision. It's hard but you will come through it, and life will be all the better for it. If someone you love doesn't enhance your life, in fact makes life more difficult, it's easier to be on your own for a while then find someone that does enhance your life. Good luck.

Hope you feel
Better soon op!!

Thank you Tabliope, I know you're right.

Change is hard and fear of the unknown is hard but it's a journey you're on. Take care of yourself as if you have flu or some kind of an illness, be kind to yourself. Lick your wounds and bit by bit the pain will go. It's your time now to do the things you want, to see friends, take up some hobbies (in time) and who knows what's round the corner. It's exciting and scary all at once but now you don't have a dead weight holding you back. You deserve better than what he was giving you.

Had a better day today. Taking each day as it comes....thanks so much for the support.

Thank Gawd for that.

Lol, long time coming but I got there in the end.

You can't keep a Good Woman down

Good for you for ending it. You are right about the self respect thing, I kicked my husband of 13 years out earlier this year partly because of his persistent sext relationships, but more because I realised that by accepting his behaviour I had lost my self respect. I have got it back now :0)

You knew it was coming and that 'final straw' eventually came.
We all know how hard it is but you've done it.
Well done.
Keep strong and here's to your new life without this knob dragging you down
