Is it in my head

My partner n I had some issues a while back , I was unable to hold a pregnancy and in the end had recurrent miscarriages . Fortunately things changed and I'm happy to say in 3 1/2 months pregnant all going good there . Anyways to the point ,at one point my partner thought about cheating on me and I found out , he never went though with anything but it made me feel terrible because he sole reason was to get anyone pregnant as at the time it wasn't happening with me . I forgave that but I'm still left with emotional scars n lack of trust . We both are on that social network sight n today I've found out he changed his profile , ( i havent )and he still has that he's in a relationship with me but had advertise that if you want his number hell give it including more or less anything about him . To me that sounds like setting up a profile for someone to ask you out . So my question is .... Is this in my head or I'm I right . I've never cheated or even thought about it , he knows how committed I am to him . Please help !

To me, his reason for wanting to cheat the first time would have sent me running a long time ago.
Even though he can come up with many excuses regarding his profile now, and it may well be innocent, the very reason he thought about cheating once before would always make me doubt him.

Talk to him.
Watch his reaction and go from there.
I don't understand why he told you he thought about cheating and the reasons for it. It doesn't seem necessary when it only would have made you feel bad about something you had no control over.

I was angry as anything with him , at the time I just couldn't get my head round his thoughts of cheating , I mean I could have gone and slept with another man n said the baby was his but I'm just not that type of person . Things were rough after that because I was so hurt . We talked a lot n I forgave him , which maybe was a bit nuts but I loved him n soo badly wanted to give him a child , well a child for us both . Maybe I am reading to much into it but I can't help how I feel I feel that annoyed n angry inside I'm afraid i'll flip out . If I was to change my details like that I'm sure he'd be questioning it.

Sorry I don't feel comfortable giving relationship advice but I have suffered recurrent miscarriages and it nearly broke us as a couple, but not once did DH (or I for that matter) think or attempt to cheat because we wanted a baby with each other not any old random. His profile may be innocent but personally I couldn't live with someone who tried to go off and get another woman pregnant because I was miscarrying. Sorry you went through that.

We were the same it was unbelievably stressful , that's what made what he was thinking of worse . I don't want to be seen as covering for him but his frame of mind was up the left, doesn't excuse it I know ....

Sori I forgot to add my reason for question him is that he hates fb so why go to the bother of changing things . If he has cheated or even thought about I'm gone , I'm string enough now to walk away

Thinking about cheating.......... So nothing actually happened or was arranged to happen? He didn't actually DO anything. Tbh I would be surprised if any man had not 'thought' about cheating while in a relationship. What you have to decide is if he would have cheated had you not found about it? To me the seriousness of any plans he had made to cheat would be important too...

I think punishing someone for 'thinking' about doing something is mad!
Fb status doesn't sound too amiss. Why not ask him to remove his number if it bothers you.

Honestly I didn't think he would have cheated but I didn't think he'd ever look into it either , he had a profile all filled out to meet someone . Now I'm just so unsure of things , maybe it's paranoia in my behalf . Fb I wouldn't say was amiss , if he hated it that bad , why change things and have it that if you want info on me ask n I'll give it ? Honestly he doesn't like fb one bit , hence my concerns
