Well it’s not really an ‘I think’ really, I just have

There was an unfamiliar beeping coming from the coat/shoe cupboard so I went in to investigate and found a phone in DPs coat, a cheap little Nokia with just one contact - a woman’s name

I am home alone with 4 kids trying not to cry but honestly I could throw up right now
Wtf

@Wallywobbles what on earth would make you think that?!!

ohdeardeardear · 03/08/2018 19:36

Just leave the phone out and see what his reaction is.

So sorry, OP Thanks

Men are such shits

Littlebird88 · 03/08/2018 19:42

stay strong

livingdownsouth · 03/08/2018 19:43

So sorry this is happening to you. Do you have anyone that you could talk to over the weekend? Flowers take care of yourself

Jjjjigoo · 03/08/2018 19:44

Are you married op? I hope you aren't, in this case.

Kittykat93 · 03/08/2018 19:44

Op I feel from your posts that you don't want to confront him or believe it, but please don't let him do this to you. Be strong and face up to it. The evidence is too strong for him to worm his way out of it. Thanks

FrozenMargarita17 · 03/08/2018 19:44

Whatever happens, you will be just fine OP. There will be shit times, and even shitter times. But you will be fine.

DontDrinkDontSmoke · 03/08/2018 19:44

My feeling is it's one of your friends. Sorry. Hope you are ok.

Some people just love a live break up thread. What a cunty thing to post.

So sorry op, really want there to be a better explanation for this but I can't think of one. Hope you are ok right now xxx

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 03/08/2018 19:47

Remove all the credit cards from his wallet

Cancel any cards he has access to that you might have to pay for

Also tell loan company that he is no longer allowed to increase the loan or take out another one with your name included

thenewaveragebear1983 · 03/08/2018 19:54

How awful, what a shitty thing to do. Hope you’re ok OP

Pebblesandfriends · 03/08/2018 19:58

How long is he out for? Can you call a RL friend?

notapizzaeater · 03/08/2018 19:58

Hope you are ok OP and ave support in RL

Hope you are ok. X

Hellohah · 03/08/2018 20:01

Hope you're ok OP, sending all my positive vibes xx

AuditBird · 03/08/2018 20:04

So sorry OP. I'm guessing he's come home because he forgot to take the phone out with him.

3girlmama · 03/08/2018 20:05

Hope you're ok x

pontiouspilates · 03/08/2018 20:06

I've just read through the thread and wanted to let you know how sorry I am that you are in this situation. Don't make any rash decisions, be kind to yourself and talk it through with a trusted friend or family member if at all possible Thanks

Newerversion · 03/08/2018 20:10

Hope you are ok,op.
It does sound like a punting phone to me (having seen some of my horrible ex’s punting messages). The way to really check is googling the number - I did this and it is not easy and once seen can’t be unseen though.
I so hope that you have managed to get through the past few hours ok and that you are ok. Thinking of you Flowers

MamaBearThius · 03/08/2018 20:10

Flowers so sorry you have to go through this OP
