I am currently packing his stuff. Am I overreacting?

I have had enough.

He was using the tablet over the weekend and left his Facebook logged in. He is in the pub and messages started popping up on the tablet for his Facebook account.

It was a woman I've never heard of or met but from the messages written it's an ex of his.

She was saying how he hadn't changed and how was he etc. He mentioned he had a daughter now but had been split up from me for over a year and lived on his own in a flat in his old hometown.

As far as I'm concerned we are very much together and things have been going fantastic. It fekt like a massive smack in the face and I feel so hurt and deflated . Messages have been clean but he's maintaining he's single and shes asking to meet up or for his number. He hasn't replied yet.

I do so so much for him and for him to just make out I'm not there and he's on his own is so hurtful and completely disrespectful. No mention of his stepdaughter dd1 who adores him just that he gets dd2 every second weekend.

I don't know whether to confront him now by phone or wait until he comes home.

He will completely deny it and say his Facebook was hacked even though I have taken sceeenshot and it's obviously him. We have been in this situation before and I forgave him.

I would never say I was single. I always acknowledge my partner of 5 years and my head has honestly never been turned. He is obviously playing the single card hoping to get a Shag or a new girlfriend out of it.

I am quite calm but I'm not sure how calm I'll be when he lies to my face when he comes home and I don't want to explode when dds are here.

I can't believe I've let him fool me again. I honestly thought things were getting better and out relationship has been brilliant recently. How stupid am I Sad

No way have you overreacted. What an utter bastard! How could you treat a child like that! Never mind the messages.

Total and utter wanker!

Bogeyface · 02/11/2014 23:17

'Oh god, believe me, that isn't even the main reason. Good luck if you want to give him a go love, but from one woman to another, you could do better. In fact almost anyone could. All the best, Norris'

This is the perfect response, nice one Castlemilk

Darkesteyes · 02/11/2014 23:19

he messaged another woman pretending he was single and makes a vulnerable sick child come home on a bus cos he doesnt want her in his precious car. What an absolute fucking HUGE turd he is. You are not overreacting OP Unbelievable!

manaboutthemaison · 02/11/2014 23:25

you've dodged a bullet there, kick him out, he's a complete twunt.

headlesslambrini · 03/11/2014 08:11

Hope you got some sleep last night and DD is feeling a little better this morning.

Joysmum · 03/11/2014 08:56

I can't believe he extended the period your DD felt I'll for by increasing the length of the journey home and in an environment that'll make her feel worse.

What a selfish cunt.

hellsbellsmelons · 03/11/2014 09:32

Oh bless you.
What a horrible day you had.
I hope you and your DD got some sleep.
Get some family and friends round now to help support you through this.
I hope you are keeping him away and keeping strong.
Thanks for you.

Granville72 · 03/11/2014 09:34

What a twat, made you take the bus with a sick child so she wouldn't be poorly in his car!!!!!!!!!!!!

If he was that bothered he could have bought a bucket and a towel whilst you were out shopping NOT MAKE HER SIT ON THE BUS.

Get rid. What a toss pot.

Let me see if I got it right: the guy is a cunt with a sick child. OP accepts that. DP tries to shag another woman. OP gets mad. FFS OP, get your priorities right and think of your DC!

sorry for the repeated posts, I didn't mean to be so emphatic. ..

bobs123 · 03/11/2014 10:10

Not a lot to say except very well done and hope dd1 is better this morning Flowers

BookABooSue · 03/11/2014 11:24

I hope your DC is feeling better this morning and that you managed to get some sleep. Look after yourself, Norris , but I'm guessing with an ex-DP like that, you are used to looking after yourself. You deserve so much better.

doineedhelp · 03/11/2014 11:38

just read the thread, i don't normally post but am sat here so mad on your behalf, what an absolute delight of a man! Hope that your DC is feeling better today and that your resolve hasn't wavered in the slightest, you and your DC really do deserve so much more than this.

Stay strong and safe...

BigglesFliesUndone · 03/11/2014 12:00

Hope everything is ok.

wakeywakeyteaandcakey · 03/11/2014 12:58

Hi Norris hope you're ok?

BitOutOfPractice · 03/11/2014 13:24

Bloody hell what a prince!

I hope you're OK OP and your DD is better today Thanks

Itsfab · 03/11/2014 13:53

How is your DD today?

How are you?

Is it really over?

The "ex" has a cheek telling you how to feel Hmm.

I decent person doesn't make someone get a bus when they have car, no matter what the relationship to the sick person but a child?? Beyond the pale when they are meant to be a father "figure."

ChippingInAutumnLover · 03/11/2014 14:00

Hi norris
How is DD?
How are you?
Thinking of you

AmserGwin · 03/11/2014 16:59
