I can't believe I'm writing this. 2 DD's youngest 6 months. Been going on 2 yrs on and off. He loves her. I'm devastated. What am I going to do? He told me at 10pm so I haven't told anyone in RL yet.

Glad you are all doing ok

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 06/11/2012 20:19

Checking your phone, The cheek of him! indeed. Well done Dolly glad you are doing so well.

MoppingMummy · 06/11/2012 22:56

So glad to hear from you again. Really pleased you continue to remain strong & you're doing well.

BerylStreep · 06/11/2012 23:42

Glad to hear you are doing well.

Angry he is checking your phone Shock Thinking you have another man!! Oh the irony.

It probably helps his ego to think that you don't want him back because you have another man, rather than face the sad truth that it is because he is a complete twunt.

Dolly, so pleased to hear how you're doing. Please don't waste any pity on him, although I know you will really (you were together too long to just completely switch off).

My friends said to me that I was the "old Annie", once I'd gotten rid of the cheating bastard and to some extent I probably was, just didn't realise how I'd lost the old one along the way.

Don't play his games with the phone - and don't let him think there is another man already, that's stooping to his level.

Keep strong -it's not all plain sailing but you are in the right place and doing so well - it's wonderful to see Smile Wine

Great to hear you are doing so well Smile

Basically people think you behave they way that they do and share their moral values.

For example a liar with think everyone lies to them and a thief will think people will all steal.

This is what your H is operating under. He is a lying deceitful betraying scuzz ball so it stands to reason that others you will behave the same way.

If you haven't already put a lock on your phone & bedroom door, he lost any right to be in either of these private areas of your life a long time ago!

MadAboutHotChoc · 07/11/2012 18:53

Yup, he's judging you by his own very low standards Hmm

what is he doing in invading your personal space and checking your phone?

The3Bears · 13/11/2012 23:27

Love this thread just read some pages and you seem so strong, my xp left on friday v unexpected and ive been a wreck (been together for 8 yrs and 2 children youngest 12 weeks) going to try and be strong and forget about the bastard who walked out on me and my babies x

AnyFucker · 13/11/2012 23:36

Very sorry to hear this, 3bears Sad

Have you some support in real life ?. That must be devastating. I am glad you have found this thread though...the OP is an inspiration. Take care love, and start a thread of your own for the great advice you will undoubtedly get x

Watamug2610 · 10/01/2014 20:52

I feel sick numb and don't know what to do

Watamug2610 · 10/01/2014 20:53

Please will someone talk to me

flumposie · 10/01/2014 21:00

Hi,sorry to hear that, this is an old thread so perhaps best to start your own new thread. Thinking of you.

ThinkAboutItTomorrow · 10/01/2014 21:01

Hi there. Happy to talk but you should start your own thread really. Everyone will click on this and see it is old and may not check the end.

Hope you are ok.

Cabrinha · 10/01/2014 21:02

You're not a mug!
You might want to start a new thread - people will see this is an old one, and long at that, and may not realise there a new poster.
Start a new thread just for you, tell us about it and we'll make you glad you're shot of a cheating bastard!!
Big hugs x
