Sleeping at "ex's"

So a guy I've been steadily getting to know, (due to meet tomo) has kids with his ex, no biggie,
Has been off work this week and taken ex and kids to theme park abd seaside, spent £1000, (not a high earner particularly)
Tonight he's with his kids.
Just sent me a video of a cat attacking his feet, I said "I didn't know you had a cat" he said I don't it's my ex's.....cue confusion, turns out he sleeps at his ex's whilst she's on the town, now this is a 2 room place and hes clearly in an adults bed, second room has kids sharing....
Ex wants him back and makes no bones about that and as such im thinking she comes in after night out and gets into same bed....
Would this sit well with you guys,
Thoughts please?!

But who's to say she's trying it on? Why assume that either of them are still interested in each other? My ex stayed at mine quite a bit to see DC and I wasn't in the least bit interested in him!

If you're not happy with it then that's perfectly fine, it's just that everyone is jumping to conclusions that could be way off the mark so I'm trying to offer w different perspective.

@BungleandGeorge

He’s spent 1k on a trip to a theme park and the seaside? That wouldn’t bode well for me either!
Thanks! I though given that he has a mid level job, and outgoings, it surely means he would have to compromise elsewhere, I don't expect any man to spend 1p on me but in time this wouldn't be feasible, unless it's all credit which I don't believe in, it wasn't even any occasion!

Whenever my ex (my child's dad) would stay at my house to watch our daughter so I could go out, we would always end up having sex when I got home and we absolutely hated each other.

He's told me he had to walk away and she won't move on because she wants the family unit.... I mean he could be lying, he's make after all! At this juncture I don't know what to think....or rather I do! If it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck....

And he told you this?

Yeah - he's after making you do the Pick-Me Dance.
No thanks, sucker - go & find some other unsuspecting bit on the side ...
