Partner lying...what do I do?

Hi,
The last two weeks my parter of 5 years has been away for work with other members of his team. Him going away was a huge issue as we have just had a baby and I was worried about being on my own as have no family support nearby. Anyway, we are two weeks in. He has been calling me and messaging me while he has been there and he was saying he hated the whole thing.

He came home for the weekend on Friday and for some reason I got a funny feeling. I can't explain it but I felt something weird and I looked on his phone. Turns out one of the women he is working with he's been messaging her, going to the gym with her everyday. Some of the messages were in my view innapropriate.

I confronted him straight away. He said he was just trying to get along with his team members and he wanted people to like him. He was very apologetic and said he understood why I was upset but there was nothing in it at all.

My problem is the amount of lies he told me. I told me he was in the gym on his own when he wasn't, he also never told me that the training he is on has been extended and now it's 4 weeks instead of 3.

I feel like I've been punched in the gut. He's going back there tomorrow morning and I just know I'll be spending all week going over it and wondering what he's doing.

He's also put a new password on his phone today.

I don't know what to do.

Jesus, I would end that messaging straight away. With an email to her and copying in HR. And then I would LTB.

What an arsehole your partner is, totally selfish.

The password on the phone shows his contempt. Get rid!

Could you go somewhere this week?
Family or friend?
Do you have no-one in the same country?
