He's been cheating with a teenager.

I've had the shittiest year so far and it's only just begun. Been with dp 3 years this Monday and was really looking forward to celebrating, I'd made him an incredibly thoughtful gift and things had been better than ever lately, we've been through a lot.

Today I found out he's been seeing an 18 year old behind my back and buying weed while my 4 year old daughter has been out with him. I'm beyond disgusted and angry. He's got form for this, a year ago he had an affair with a girl whilst also sleeping with others that were between 17-20. I let it go because we were very on and off back then but also because I only found out about the other girls this last November, I thought it was just the 1 affair for a whole year.

He's 32 and sleeping with teenagers in a park! His step kids from his last relationship are that age!

Worst thing is I got pregnant and had an abortion in January and while I was going through the worst time of my life he was out with her, not using protection.

I know he has to go, I can't be hurt anymore but I'm so frightened how I'll cope. I have no friends and family around here and I'm an agoraphobic that can't work but isn't deemed well enough for ESA. I'm screwed.

I just need some hand holding, my whole life is falling apart and I don't feel like I have any energy left after everything that's happened in the last few years.

Ignore that op, you've done nothing wrong, 3 years is a perfectly reasonable amount of time, you thought you were happy. This is his fault not yours. Bastard.

I always think it takes between 3-5 years, to get a handle on what someone is like & this is a perfect example of it. What an abhorrent Individual

Honestly, I'm totally revolted by a thirty two year old man fucking seventeen and eighteen year olds in a park. Possibly as I have a nineteen year old daughter so I know this age group it's making it worse for me. He's total scum.

You're so better off without him. You will actually feel better without living with the stress and humiliation of it. Just get your finances sorted.

Legend? Hmm

OP he sounds like a creep. Just be so so glad this came out before he moved in. You will be so much happier without him!

Looks like hotbutterysandwich and Geezer69 are either under-bridge dwellers or they're visitors from other sites Hmm

Have reported both.

Reported for having an opininion. Hownrude.

The man has clearly decided he doesn't want to be a grown up and wants to enjoy life...

Bless you Flowers I'm glad to hear you can go and stay at your parents for a while. Do you drive or are they able to come and get you and your dd. Do not stay where you are because of preschool and the goldfish. Both of those can be moved without much bother. Don't stay with this idiot. You deserve much much better than that. Try and get to somewhere you'll have some support either from family or friends. You will be fine. It might be tough to start with but you'll be fine.

Good idea to have your mum there. Also make sure she has her phone on her hand to call the police if he kicks off. Actually, given that he has already been physical I would tell the police about that, and that you are about to end things and ask them to put a marker on your address.

elephantcuddles · 16/03/2017 21:28

Do you have a male family member who can be there? I'm just worried that if it's just you and your mum that won't stop him from being violent. And yes, have phone ready in hand just in case you need to ring the police!

PonderLand That's really admirable how you did that. I have to admit when I had a break from him after all that affair stuff I did notice I was getting a bit better. I just think the added stress of having a "deadline" for getting better isn't helping right now. So worried I'll have a break down, I know I'll not be ready by September to be a normal functioning person!

elephantcuddles I don't have any males that can be around unfortunately but I think he's too embarrassed to kick up too much of a fuss.
