To confront ex or not..?

Ex has recently told me he still loves me, he wants me back, wants to be a family, wants to marry me, move back in, you get the picture and we've been talking and Im not going to say I wasn't considering it. So imagine my surprise when a friend tells me she's seen ex on a dating site. I checked out the profile and at first he had 3 pictures and said he wanted to date but nothing serious. Now we've been talking and he still has been confessing his 'love' for me how he doesn't want to meet anyone else etc. but a check on his profile today shows me he has added an extra picture! And changed it to 'wants a relationship' I sooooo want to confront him but know it's probably best to leave it? Wwyd?

As the saying goes why put all your eggs into one basket. He's preparing himself for the dating world outside of you.

He can do that without me in it though that's my point.

He's miss led you OP, not sure why that's being minimised. Of course he can move on or keep his options open or whatever but that doesn't make it ok for him to out right lie to you! Just be grateful that you found out now and waste no more time on the desperate prat.

If I was you I'd possibly text him and tell him that you're not remotely interested, but wish him the best of luck on Tinder (or whatever site it is that he's on).

Thanks I agree. Saying I want to marry you by the end of next year. He wants to move in with me again and spend Christmas together and he isn't looking to meet anyone else is misleading. The "I'm not interested in meeting anyone else" was clearly a lie so I think he has done something wrong for that alone. It's over now and I feel better.

cheese why ask for opinions then if you already had your mind set that he was wrong?
All the stuff he was saying is what he wants, I want to win the lottery doesn't mean it's going too happen.

angels I don't think anybody is minimising the fact he misled her, but like I said technically he hasn't done anything wrong - they aren't together.

But you keep ignoring that he said he isn't interested in meeting anyone else yet is on a dating website looking for a relationship so he lied. Surely? I was more asking whether I should tell him I know that he's on there or to leave it.
