confused

[tippytop]

I'm five months pregnant and have just been told my partner was soon with another women in a pub in he afternoon. My partner told me a story about this day before I was told and know is saying that the person has read the situation wrong the person who told me is a very close friend of my family and has known me all my life and I feel has nothing to gain from lying about this. The strain its putting on me is hard and I'm keeping it to myself I know its true but I just don't want to believe it any advice

Your partner was open and upfront about meeting the woman, saw no reason to conceal it

What is the difference between the two versions of the meeting? Ie your partner says he bumped into her at lunchtime, and they sat together/ your informant saw them cuddling and sharing spaghetti like Lady and the Tramp

I do think it depends on what both sides were. Did she just see them sitting together and jumped to conclusions?

What story did your partner tell you about this day? Could you say a little more?

Did he know he had been spotted?

What was both versions of the story op. Your partner could have told you immediately to cover up as well. The other person would not gain much. Do you have reason to mistrust your partner?
