Evening!!

I am feeling so angry right now!!

Cut a long story short, my boyfriend was on my laptop earlier and it crashed and wouldn't reload so he just left it.... I've just loaded it back up and his Facebook comes up, still logged on!

Anyway, he's on his phone right now at the other end of the sofa, & I'm on my laptop... I can see that he's just 'waved' at 5 women, 3 of which have replied and he's having conversations with!! Every time he sends a message, he deletes it so the convo disappears. But little does he know, I'm watching them pop up and reading every word.

I know I shouldn't be invading his privacy & I have never done this before but bloody hell...

What an absolute C**t. Or am I over reacting?

No advice. But what a nob!!

Get rid delete and block you don't need any more evidence

CougheeBean · 23/02/2018 08:59

Clearly it’s a habit, one he’s not willing to give up. My ex did this, caught him asking girls for sex on messanger within a few months, years later and we broke up after i found out he was begging his ex to take him back. Should have ditched him the first time. Just ghost him! Hes not worth getting wound up over, i know it hurts now but you’ll find someone who isn’t an arse and wonder what you ever saw in this sleazy prick. It’s about his ego, these women don’t have anything new or special for him.

branstonbaby · 23/02/2018 09:04

Omg! What a knob! Send him packing...

purpleviolet1 · 23/02/2018 09:13

The nerve!!

FreeNiki · 23/02/2018 09:21

Just curious why you didnt dump 5 years ago seeing as these were sent in 2013.

First thing i noticed. Purple drawing added by me.

Facebook messenger!!!
Purpledahlia88 · 23/02/2018 09:23

She said already these were archived messages sent while he was with his ex

whatwedointheshadows · 23/02/2018 09:25

They were old messages she found @FreeNiki, from when he was with his ex not the OP.

AthenasOwl · 23/02/2018 09:25

These are archived messages he sent when he was with his previous partner. Op checked then when she discovered him messaging new women.

Excitedforxmas · 23/02/2018 09:32

Text him back saying his stuff is in the front garden - twat

AthenasOwl · 23/02/2018 09:35

Just wondering if you can send messages as him while you're watching him? I'd be tempted to start typing stuff like 'I'm watching you' 'I can see what you're doing you cunt' and watch his face!

FreeNiki · 23/02/2018 09:36

Shit how did I miss that. Sorry.

Anyway dump his arse now.

FreeNiki · 23/02/2018 09:38

In a way you are lucky. I mean that sardonically.

You've found out what he is after little time and investment.

My ex was the same wish Id gone through his phone

troodiedoo · 23/02/2018 09:42

If you want to be really classy, just ditch him with no mention of the messages, no confrontation. Just say you don't want to be with him any more. Goodbye.

Dez85 · 23/02/2018 09:48

@troodiedoo was thinking of doing that!! Leave him wondering.

ThatsWotSheSaid · 23/02/2018 09:52

Just tell him your looking for someone who is more on your level sexually and intellectually and LTB.

pudding21 · 23/02/2018 09:54

My firend had this with a guy she was living with. He was a serial messenger and she suspected he was up to no good. He had given her her password for something else, so she thought she would try Facebook and the idiot had used the same password.

Anywya, she sat there while he was sending loads of messages to basically anyone. In the end she decided to play a bit with him. She set up a fake facebook profile, he was so dumb he didn't think it was weird it had only just been set up and didn't have that many friends. Anyway, she kept this game up for a while, and they "arranged" a meeting. She watched him out on his coat and head out. Then she changed all his passwords on facebook, got into his email and deleted the notifications. A woman scorned and all that. I don;t think he ever realised it was her that "cat fished " him, but the idiot deserved it.

TheVanguardSix · 23/02/2018 09:59

Good for you! Good riddance indeed! No need to keep watch.
It's horrible when you realise you've fallen for nothing but a time bandit. And that's all he is: Just some guy in your way, being an obstacle, robbing you of time and your chance to have a decent relationship with someone worthwhile. Don't be his clown. Flowers

strawberrysparkle · 23/02/2018 09:59

Have we not noticed these pictures are from 2013...

Angelf1sh · 23/02/2018 10:00

^ Strawberry, op said they’re old archived messages from before they were together

FreeNiki · 23/02/2018 10:01

Yes strawberry I made that mistake too having skimmed over the bit that those were archived messages she found before they were together.

He was apparently messaging women when with his ex who was pregnant I think?

Jayne35 · 23/02/2018 10:03

Would people please rtft!

OP, get rid, can't believe he is outright lying and if he has always been like that he won't change. Hope you are ok, and it's good you know now before investing anytime with a waster.

Jayne35 · 23/02/2018 10:04

*any more time.

Dez85 · 23/02/2018 10:04

@strawberrysparkle yes, I checked his achieved messages last night and found those! That was when he was with his ex who was 6 months pregnant.

Is it bad I really wanna play him / catfish him or something?

OP posts:
Angelf1sh · 23/02/2018 10:06

Dez85 yes it’s bad, just let it go. Have some dignity and boot him out. If you start catfishing, you risk being made out as the one in the wrong (he’ll pretend he knew it was you all along). I don’t understand why you’re spinning it out. Just tell him you’re done.
