Should I stay or go

I've been with my other half for 5 years we are due to get married in June and have a 2.5 year old son. We are 24 and 25.

My problem is I don't know if I should leave him or not. Over the past 2 years or so I have been finding out things in regards to cheating, he lies a lot to me, lied about money. So many things yet he swears he loves me and my son and it would kill him if we left. Every time I think things are fine something comes up and I'm thrown into turmoil again. I want it to work but I don't want to be a mug. Has anyone got any advice?

Thanks

No. You will find someone who treats you how you should and will look back on this with relief you did not marry him.

He has said everything to your mother that he was telling you through his actions since ages.
If you stay now, and by some miracle he does too, you will still be looking over your shoulder always. And he will say he told you he didn't want it anyway.
It will mess your head. Leave now, make your life and help your son through this. It will all get so much better in some time and then you will look back and laugh on him actually. You look like you have a good support network. Don't worry. So many of us have been here and done that. It works out so well in the end. You deserve so much better.

Totally agree with Wishiwasmoiradingle2017!
Try figuring out who you really are, and what makes you happy. It's not love if there's no respect...
I know it's a tough one but try to stick up for yourself. No one will do it for you.

Thanks everyone. Never thought I'd be in this situation but I guess no one does! Luckily I have everyone behind me including his own parents

Another chance, to what, carry on lying and cheating on you; OP, spend some time on your own and raise that bar of what you find acceptable; most of would not be accepting of him.

Thanks everyone. We have cancelled the wedding. Now I need to figure out my life :(
