Can I have your help please 🙏

So around a year ago I found out my partner had a secret Snapchat account .. he was logging in at work on a morning then deleting it before coming home. Anyways we moved past it .. slight trust issues surfaced but .. well like I say.. a year ago !

This weekend I was sent a screenshot of a new profile ( different username ) this account is linked to his mobile number ( if it's a contact in your phone it will show the contact name also )

When I've questioned it he swears blind he hasn't set it up ..

Is this possible ???

I feel like I'm cracking up with the stress

An adult man in a committed relationship using Snapchat is definitely a red flag for me. In my experience, the main people who use Snapchat are either teens who use it for chatting with friends or grown adults who use it for cheating or sexting. Most adults use Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp for chatting with friends/family, not Snapchat. The only innocent explanation I can think of is that it might be an old account from years ago that he forgot about (if you have access to his emails, you may be able to check when the account was set up). But you know in your heart of hearts what the most likely scenario is.

Thank you all for just confirming what I knew .. I just wanted an impartial opinion really .. likelihood of it not been him setting it up etc.

I have now ended the relationship.

I just feel shitty for thinking he wouldn't do it again.

But you know what...

No one ever died from a break up .. I will get over it xx

@Rdhj

I'm not sure I follow. What's the issue with him having Snapchat? I don't use it. Briefly tried it about 5 years ago but it was just silly filters that I couldn't get my head around.

Isn't it just another social media platform? Are you against social media?

Sorry if I sound really really dumb! Just not sure what the problem is with him having a Snapchat account?

Sometimes when you match with a guy on a dating app he'll say 'I don't usually use Tinder (for example), add me on Snapchat' and he'll send his username which guaranteed is something random that can't be linked back to him.. Instant block from me as he's clearly cheating on someone. I find any grown man with a Snapchat account a bit odd
