What to do next

[TheNewClassic]

My dp claims to be faithful and hes not a liar etc.
The other week he went out to a club for a friends birthday and did not come home until 8 am and claimed to have fallen asleep. We had an argument he spun the usual things saying he wouldnt cheat and hes upset I have accused him blah blah blah.

I just checked his old phone. The one which is switched off in the kitchen. The whatsapp has no messages except one from a girl named Leah. There is a single message which is just the smilies of the chat icon. He hasnt replied because it was sent this morning and the phone has been switched off.
I do not know anyone called Leah. He has saved the whatsapp pic of her in his phone.

We have been together five years and lived together for 2. Im crying right now. He is at gym I don't know what to do.

I have just messaged the number from his phone with a question mark.

Don't message just ring it. Cuts out all the crap.

Hopefully it's nothing to worry about.

Get yourself a drink. Deep breaths and stay calm.

Panic and tears won't help . You don't know what is going on yet sobidr your time.

So bide your time.

she messaged back. 9% sure something has happened. I am not longer crying im fuming. He will be back soon how do I play it

I think you gain the upper hand in these situations if you a) catch them off guard and b) crack on you know more than you do. You have to anticipate he's not going to own up easily so have an idea what you might say and what outcome you want at the end.

What was her reply op?
I think ringing could be a good idea as a pp suggested!
