Found a condom in boyfriends jeans pocket

I've just been through the laundry basket to put a load of washing on and found an unopened condom in the pocket of my boyfriends jeans.

We don't use condoms.

Aibu to think there could be a perfectly innocent reason for it being there??

I've never found a condom in my black jeans... Hmm

nibora · 22/11/2017 17:39

Was he genuinely concerned, or wanting his shower?

If he took his phone with him, it's game over.

I was in similar situations when I was younger. Alarm bells should have been blaring but I chose to believe flimsy excuses and fake acts of innocence.

I wish I'd been braver.

Please just tell him to pack his stuff and go. Tell him not to forget the rest of his condoms. I'm so sorry. You deserve so much better Flowers

myshinynewusername · 22/11/2017 17:40

I hope you are ok, OP.

GinwithCucumber · 22/11/2017 17:41

Brew bad news OP.

Best case scenario is that he's hoping/planning to cheat and he just lies to your face.

Sorry wanted to place mark while i did something but didn't have time to write anything

Just click on 'watch this thread' no-one will give you a telling off that way

loveisevol · 22/11/2017 17:43

Hope you are ok op.

QueenAmongstMen · 22/11/2017 17:44

Oh OP

I had a partner once and found a condom in his wallet. He also didn't know where it came from.... Hmm

His reaction is not normal and speaks volumes.

mrskitty15 · 22/11/2017 17:45

Sounds like a lie and bullshit, really sorry OP. Hope you are ok Flowers

Lovemusic33 · 22/11/2017 17:48

The fact it was in 'his pocket' says it all really, it's not as though someone could have snuck it in without him noticing is it?

I would be packing his things whilst he's in the shower and asking him to leave. He's probably thinking of a better excuse right now, be prepared for more bull shit.

GlitteryFluff · 22/11/2017 17:51

How did the ones get into his underwear drawer? Did they just appear too?
Sorry op Flowers

GottadoitGottadoit · 22/11/2017 17:52

lying surely

ifonly4 · 22/11/2017 17:55

Sending a hug to you OP. Agree he's lying. If my DH found something that cast a doubt about our relationship and I genuinely didn't know about it, I'd be upset and begging him to believe me, so even if by the slightest chance he's telling the truth I'd say he doesn't think enough of you to fight for the relationship.

FucksakeCuntingFuckingTwats · 22/11/2017 17:55

Yip he's talking shit. Sorry op, hope you are okay.

DoesHeWantToOrNot · 22/11/2017 17:55

Hope you are okay

pictish · 22/11/2017 17:59

I too predict more elaborate bullshit.
Or
He will stick doggedly to the current bullshit that he doesn't know how it got there...then when you refuse to accept his explanation which is clearly utter shite, he'll become angry and tell you that you're a nutcase.

FizzyGreenWater · 22/11/2017 18:01

Sorry OP.

Yes, the absolute final nail would be if he comes out of the shower and goes 'Ohhhhhh hang on - those must be the jeans I wore the night when...blah blah'.

It really isn't worth going any further with this.

Really don't like his use of 'baby' either. He sounds like a smooth hound, doesn't he?

DarkNightDelight · 22/11/2017 18:01

I just couldn't believe him, You've got to go with your gut and sort this before you're a year or 2 down the line and find something out.

Things to check, •his phone for messages and apps like Snapchat, whatsapp etc.
•condoms come in a minimum of a pack of 3 so where's the rest?.•

Sorry you're going through this, you must feel awful but if your gut tells you something is wrong then please don't ignore it.

Big hugs and Brew

DarkNightDelight · 22/11/2017 18:05

Sorry just seen the message about 2 others in his draw. Hopefully you get some answers.

DingleBerries · 22/11/2017 18:06

I take it all back.

He’s a lying fucker.

Mulch · 22/11/2017 18:10

Never in my life has a random unknown condom found itself in my pocket without explanation, he's lying and I know you want to believe him but you deserve better

DearMrDilkington · 22/11/2017 18:12

So sorry. I hope your ok, at least you've found out what his like now instead of further down the line. Flowers

Aquamarine1029 · 22/11/2017 18:17

Time to take off the blinders. He is cheating or was hoping to. Get him the fuck out of your house NOW.

Insomnibrat · 22/11/2017 18:19

Sounds like a Billy Bullshitter to me!
