He is textin female friend

74 replies

rubycastle · 12/04/2016 12:01

Hi advice please. Am I over reacting and being a jealous person. My partner has a female friend, who he has had for years. She is on her own with her son. He claims they are good friends, but when I ask him about her he is very evasive. I asked him out of curiosity if she knows he is with me, and to my utter shock, he said no, she didn't. He apparently doesn't talk to people about his private life.!!!! He tells me when she has text but not the context. I ask him has he text her back and he says no, not yet. But he never tells me when he has. It appears to be all very secretive and I don't trust him. He tells me he loves me. This happened a couple of months ago with another female friend he had, and I really lost my temper and asked him to make a choice. He has now deleted the number and has no contact apparently. I think I know what you will say in your replies. I love him very much and we have a good time together, work well and I believe he wants to be with me. Why does he need to do this texting tho and it makes me so upset. He knows it does and he thinks I am too clingy. Perhaps I am stupid and should be stronger

You are still considering you might have a future with this man ?

Yes, I think you must be in deep shock because that would be utterly crazy

AyeAmarok · 17/04/2016 18:38

He has so many plans for our future together but none will happen now unless he lets me meet this ow which I am going to try and insist upon.

Er, hang on, you're thinking of giving him another chance?

He's lied to you, cheated on you, and rubbed it in your fave with the holiday home and the needing new sheets, and you think this is all you deserve?

Please value yourself more than this! This man has no respect for you. You will never feel secure in this relationship, it will be a life sentence if you stay, you'll worry about it every day and every time he's away somewhere.

rubycastle · 17/04/2016 19:08

He has cried, begged and told me he loves me, but he has gone. I have told him to go her, but he said there is no one but me. Ha I am strong at the moment. thanks everyone. Tough times ahead but been there and done it before so can do it again. Its so good to be able to get your thoughts out and worries, and have advice and support. thanks x

No one but you ?

Actions tell the truth here, not meaningless words

inlectorecumbit · 17/04/2016 19:33

Well done OP
My inner bitch would be texting a link to this thread to the OW so then when he tells her he has left you, she will see that he is lying. She is his second choice, his last resort and l hope she bins him
Flowers

AnyFucker · 17/04/2016 19:37

I hope both of you bin him. She is likely to have been a victim of the lying piece of shit too. Save your anger for him.

NanaNina · 17/04/2016 19:52

You're in a state of shock OP at the moment and have a lot to think about. I can understand why you want to see the OW in the flesh - you have been kept a secret for so long, you need OW to see you. It is a fact thought that even if you do forgive this, the chances of it happening again are very high. He was texting some other woman in the recent past wasn't he. BUT it's your call and if you do decide to take him back, do so in the knowledge that you are storing up more heartache, and you've had your fair share of that in the past.

Do you think he has gone to OW - does she had a partner - I think you only have his word for that don't you.

Hope you have some RL support from family/friends. I totally get that you want to emotionally hurt them both and I'm sure you'll find a way.

Hope you get some sleep.

diamond457 · 17/04/2016 20:02

The fact he hasn't told his so called close friend about your relationship is a massive red flag. it wouldn't sit comfortable with me.
He should have told everyone by now he's in a relationship and should be introducing you to friends by now.
It's not fair on you that you are treated this way. You deserve better.

diamond457 · 17/04/2016 20:11

Oh I just read the rest of your posts ruby.
You are not a fool. you knew in your gut something was wrong and you were right. believe in yourself.
You deserve so much better you really do.
Best revenge would be to walk away head held high. don't show him your hurting. Treat yourself to some new clothes or a hair cut or something. Go out with friends and take your mind off things. six months down the line you will realise how better you are without him and you will meet someone who makes you feel comfortable and shows you off to the world.
I've had it done to me and its awful but I have a wonderful dp now.
Just feel sorry for who ever gets him next xx

Wonkydonkey44 · 21/05/2016 15:53

Bloody hell I've got a carrier bag in my boot!

May be they are his? As in used on himself?

rubycastle · 21/05/2016 16:02

Ha Wonkydonkey, don't think so.

OP posts:
Wonkydonkey44 · 21/05/2016 16:12

Rubber gloves on and bin . Yuck!

Do people really leave evidence in cars like this? What an idiot!

rubycastle · 21/05/2016 16:40

Have just asked him about it, ha he claims he bought it for us to use, but I have never ever been approached (as yet) about all this. Cock ring def been used. Beads I think as well, they are not new! Claims he bought it and hid it because he forgot about it!!!

OP posts:
rubycastle · 21/05/2016 16:43

Sorry, wrong words. Claims he bought it for us to use, hid it, and then forgot he had got it. Beads don't look new and unused. In blue carrier bag in boot, market carrier bag!!!

Didnt you end the relationship last month? Just bin the sex toys

Perbsy · 21/05/2016 17:10

Are you still together OP?

Pagwatch · 21/05/2016 17:12

Golly.

Hagrid3112 · 21/05/2016 17:55

Shock You stayed with him?

SandyY2K · 21/05/2016 18:25

Why are you asking about the sex toys if the relationship is over?
If you didn't end it or went back and believed his lies .... it's now time to wake up and get rid of him for good.

He used your property to take his OW for a f**kfest. If he's still in your life... you need to look in the mirror for answers.

Joysmum · 21/05/2016 18:58

Never hurts to have further validation you were right. If they were for you both then they'd be in sealed packs.

Laugh at the test and thank your lucky stars once again that you realised as soon as you did.

Cabrinha · 21/05/2016 19:12

How on earth do you know he is claiming he bought it for you?

Fucking hell love, you stayed with him, didn't you? 😔😔😔

Even though he had to buy a new sheet for your apartment after he made a mess of yours with his and her bodily fluids. Just fucking grim.

I'm sorry you were in a violent relationship before. I think it has fucked up your boundaries totally 😔 Just because this one hasn't put you in hospital doesn't mean he isn't a lying, cheating, nasty, disrespectful bead-filled arsehole 😡

Please cut him off. Please.

Buzzardbird · 21/05/2016 20:04

Looks as though both you and the OW need to assess your boundaries.

MummyBex1985 · 21/05/2016 20:13

Oh dear god, please tell me you are NOT still with this prick!

Get some help with your self esteem and get the dickhead out. Presumably the sex toys haven't been there that long if you haven't noticed them before.

Just yuk.
