Omg, I don’t know what to do. My boyfriend has gone out on a work do. I kept hearing a pinging coming from his office so I went in to mute whatever device it was and it was his iPad. Went to mute it and saw the message ‘can’t wait babe’ on the home screen. Obviously I opened it and have now found hundreds of messages between him and another girl. No idea who she is. Haven’t even looked into that yet. Just read the messages. He says he loves her. I have an 8 month old baby I feel sick please what shall I do from here? He’s just text me saying he misses me and I can see on the iPad he’s text her saying he misses her

Op this happened to me when my baby was under 1 after 10 years. It is awful and a terrible time of year to find out. I am now 2 years on however and me and my daughter are very happy. We are extra close and she still has a good relationship with my ex. I feel glad that I found out what he was truly like when I was young enough to move on reasonably easily . It is going to be really hard but just focus on your child. There is no going back from betrayal on this scale so all you can do it work out your new future and what you want. It is good that you’ve got your mum for support. You will be great, someone who does this does not deserve you. X

Fucking bastard, he doesn’t deserve you and your beautiful baby

delineateddelinquent · 18/12/2019 22:26

Oh god, you poor thing. Whatever you do, finish it with him. He won’t know what’s hit him and you’ve done the best thing for yourself

schafernaker · 18/12/2019 22:27

Take care OP, you deserve better

Really sorry Flowers

bert3400 · 18/12/2019 22:30

That is truly shocking and I'm so glad you have your mum for support. Don't do anything rash, get your head together and come out fighting Flowers

BodenGate · 18/12/2019 22:30

I’m so so sorry. I’m glad you’ve got your Mum there to support you.

IdiotInDisguise · 18/12/2019 22:30

Oh dear, whatever you do, do it with a cool head. Don’t take any rushed decisions now, there will be time for that. And remember, from now on you and your baby come always first.

Queenest · 18/12/2019 22:31

Sending hugs to you Flowers I would have to leave after this if it were me. it will be hard at first but you will get through it. Good luck OP

CalleighDoodle · 18/12/2019 22:33

Id keep the ipad with me and not let on what you know or how. Give yourself some time to plan your exit.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 18/12/2019 22:34

So sorry OP- eugh there are no words for what a low life he isFlowers

WWlOOlWW · 18/12/2019 22:36

Glad you have your mum with you OP. Don't let this sleaze back into your life. You deserve better.

NorthernLightsInWinter · 18/12/2019 22:40

I'm so sorry. What an absolute dick of a man.

I'm glad you've got your mum there and you're taking pictures of everything so he can't deny it. Find anything else that you need to plan an exit and keep them safe.

If you're not married and can move your share of any money into your sole account, I'd personally suggest you do so then let him know not to bother coming back at all.

Amazing advice here and lovely words from fellow MN's. I can't add anything better than already said but you and your little one are the most important thing in this shit storm. Always look after number 1 Thanks

Creepster · 18/12/2019 22:44

If you go to your moms be sure to collect all your important papers to take with you. Do not leave them behind.
