Still haunted by this so called facebook banter ((((

Mumof3girlys · 11/10/2013 20:42

So will try and keep this brief have been with my bf 2 years, 3 months ago I found done facebook messages between him and his ex, not just any ex the 19 year old he left his wife for when he was 27, he is now 37!

Now I always knew they chatted via fb every now and then even saw some messages nothing to be concerned about but three months ago I came across a conversation that basically was talking about meeting up, he was nearly begging her, these are done if the messages he sent

"Before I hit 40 we gotta meet up lol"

"All this talk of meeting, drinking, dressing up has given me movement in my pants"

"One day and night were getting a hotel for old times sake and you can do what you want to me"

" I'm up for meeting if you are"

" def 100% want to meet up we have threatened to do this for ages"

"Call me next week after Tuesday and we can arrange, you can take your midlife crisis out on me, it will be awesome" (the ref to Tuesday was because he would be back at work and not with me)

Basically he clearly didn't here anything on the Tuesday because 8 days later he then contacted her again, she was away in France and he left that convo with this message

"Have good hols, catch up soon ))))))) xx"

This was the day I found out!!! I of course went mental texted bf saying know about name/hotel etc and switched phone off and messaged her telling her what I thought, she came back to me very sorry about it, had shown her husband and that he wasn't worried as he. Knew there was nothing in it and that she is a terrible flirt and that it meant nothing just shit convo as they really have nothing to say to each other, she also have me her husbands number so I could call them and chat about it.

My boyfriend immediately drove to mine was sorry said it was just drunk banter (and I know 100% he was drunk when the messages were sent) it was a horrible emotional few days that followed and I tried to except that he was sorry and that he meant it when he said it would never of happened!

Now 3 months on I'm really struggling was it just banter??? Can't help think that the fact he made first mov and messaged her again 8 days later means he had every intention of going though with it!

It's driving me mad, it hurts, I just don't get it our relationship was going great all this came at a time when we were talking about moving in.

I just can't seem to get over this, I'm still so bitter, please help me with your views, advice etc xxx

Hello Mumof..I dont know how to link to it on my phone but maybe you can search my recent thread in relationships. Its virtually a carbon copy!! My fiance (not living together/him spending half+ the week here being supported by me) messaging another woman for months.

Telling her he had a hard on. Loved her lots. Had "naughty" thoughts about her et etc.
This was month ago today that I found out. A day when I thought we were really happy! !
Sold my wedding dress yesterday.

Unfortunately I still have to work with him and he continues to try to get round me by minimising it all..it was not sexual, not a come on to tell her he had a hard on etc .
It has killed me and my confidence is shot. But I dont feel the same about him now. It hurts but I had to end it. I couldn't have forgotten how he "love you lovely ####"
Wishing you strength.

Oh Holsten - he told her he had a hard on, but it 'wasn't sexual'?
Jesus Christ! Hmm

holstenlips · 12/10/2013 10:00

I know..thats how desperate he is to maintain his "im a good man not a sexually incontinent twat" image. F idiot. Also Mum in my case I believe it to be the tip of the iceberg.
Have since found webcam sites, hook up sites as well as other women at work who have had his "meant to be a joke not a come-on " emails.
I actually thought I knew him!

Wishfulmakeupping · 12/10/2013 10:05

He sounds awful. I wouldn't trust him at all and to be honest he sounds like he's using you. Stand up for yourself and move on you deserve better

holstenlips · 12/10/2013 10:21

Trust your instinct Mum. It normally tries to point you in the right direction . If I can help at all let me know.

Mumof3girlys · 12/10/2013 11:06

Yeah I think I know your all right, guess I was just trying to hold on in the hope it was really nothing!

Been feeling especially shit about this for the last few days and the events of last night and this morning especially have just really opened my eyes to what a selfish year he really is, at midnight last night he was on the phone drunk telling me I had to drive 40 miles to get pick him up as he couldn't find his key....... I DID NOT, no regard to the fact I have 3 children at home in bed, he finally found the keys and got in but continuted to keep calling until 1.30am until I got pissed off and switched phone off and took home phone off hook!

Then this morning I got done great news, after 5 years finally got the letter to say CSA successfully got a liability order on Monday to take legal action against ex of outstanding money, I was on phone to him listening to his troubles of a hangover when I opened this, of course I was over the moon but when I started telling him he basically cut me off and said call you back in two just getting a cuppa! That was over a hour ago....... Just wanted to share my good news ((((

Sweetheart, he's a waste of space, a cocklodger and a cheat. You deserve more.

pictish · 12/10/2013 12:02

And you certainly don't owe him anything. You are not obliged to stay in a relationship with someone who treats you like like an idiot, while he seeks out sexual encounters with other women.

Never judge a person by what they say, but by what they do!

holstenlips · 13/10/2013 22:34

How are you Mumof3? Just wondering really as I know its so hard making a decision like this.

Divinity · 13/10/2013 23:19

So you're there to be his emotional support at all hours of the day and night but he can't reciprocate even when you have good news?

He's not interested in what you think or your circumstances. A normal person would not ask you to get your three children up in the middle of the night because he can't find his keys.

He's an emotionally draining cocklodger.

Yey about your CSA news though you must be thrilled!

Boosterseattheballcleaner · 14/10/2013 08:13

Great news on the CSA Mumof

Hope you're ok this morning.
