To be suspicious of his receipt!?

My partner of nearly 4 years, we don't live together (used to, kicked him out a while ago and I don't want to move back in together) we're on our way to a weekend break this morning, in his car. He got out to go shop, I seen a receipt in his central reservation, had a look, found a receipt for a bottle of vodka and bottles of coke for a night we weren't together.

Fair enough if he hadn't done me dirty in the past. We were on a break, he met with some girl and spent the evening with her. Whilst still living in my house. Also the fact he drinks too much, in my opinion.

What's got me worried is he panicked when I asked him when he'd been drinking vodka, (I've never known him to drink vodka) he was desperate to snatch the receipt out of my hand, ripped the top part away. I don't understand why he would snatch it and screw it up.

Anyway, I've seen it in his pocket. I seen all I think I need to see on it so don't think I need to look again. He's probably got rid of it now anyway. We haven't been great lately, infact i tried to break up with him earlier in the week.

Guess I just want to know, would this unsettle you?

You 'tried to break up with him' a few days ago?

Why are you still with him?

TheObstinateHeadstrongGirl · 04/03/2023 09:54

Youre kicking off because he bought alcohol and pop and jumping to all sorts of conclusions? A man you’ve already kicked out your home?

Why are you even together? What does this relationship bring you? None of this behaviour is even remotely normal. If my OH ever questioned my purchases with accusations and nonsense he’d be getting told to shove the receipt where the sun don’t shine

What are you doing?

He's not a partner or anything other than a pain in your backside.

1000s of guys out there who'd be 1000x better to you than this drunken cheat but you'll never have ]the chance to meet them as long as you continue to let this loser waste years of your life.

Get out there and date other people. He sure as hell is!!!

I despair of this threads, like seriously, why are you still with him

NoSquirrels · 04/03/2023 10:07

Last push to break up for good, surely?

qwertykeyboards · 04/03/2023 10:18

I mean you’ve already kicked him out and are adamant he won’t be moving back in so at this point staying in this “relationship” is just a waste of your time.

LookingOldTheseDays · 04/03/2023 10:23

He's cheated on you.
He drinks too much.
You don't trust him.

Why are you with him at all? You say you tried to break up with him - just bloody do it!

StickofVeg · 04/03/2023 10:32

You've already kicked him out - just finish the job and dump him.you don't trust him so the relationship is never going to work.

The purchase of vodka may be totally innocent, but his reaction when asked about it is redolent of guilt. You do not appear to be secure or happy in this relationship and if you want to end it, you can do so unilaterally-his consent is not required.

IHaveaSetOfVeryParticularSkills · 04/03/2023 11:10

This situation is toxic.

But as these threads usually go, it eill just be reeated this and that while posters get more wind up about OP not wanting to break up. Such is MN life
