Going out of my mind

So as not to dripfeed, DH had inappropriate communication/behaviour with a woman some years ago which I couldn't prove was anything more than heavy flirting but strongly suspected it was. I am still with DH, obviously as otherwise I wouldn't be posting here, but as you can imagine there are some trust issues.

So, to the point of the post. I went on to my FB messages to post something to a group I've got set up but realised that it was logged in as DH. The first message was from a random woman and yes, I looked. It just saying "Hi, how are you?" which was sent yesterday. There were no responses that I could see, but I kept it on the screen and after a few minutes she came online, I then saw her original message disappear, only to be replaced with one that seemed a response to something DH had messaged her (also not present) along the lines of, "yeah, me too - unsurprisingly", that also disappeared before my eyes. Basically, it looks like they are speaking to each other on FB but he is deleting the messages as they go along - wouldn't you agree?

At the top of the message box it also said,

If you want a tip Op on secret massaging, I’ve only ever used it with one person who asked me to when going thru a tough time with her husband, if I go to her name on my messenger and click her name at the top, then click on the drop down list on secret message, it then invites me to send a secret message to her and in red writing at bottom it says ‘this message will delete 1 minute after being viewed’. If I check on anyone else’s no such message appears and I presume this is because when I sent the previous messages I would have had to put some kind of settings in for when it deleted itself

Secret massaging!

Now that's DEFINITELY a reason to ltb...

Make your choices just for you OP - as a PP said, you don't have to follow the advice of anyone else.

Including this advice I'm currently doling out Wink

Op, I agree with the others re LTB, however totally appreciate that you need to be in the right place to do that. If you're not there yet, be kind to yourself & I honestly hope you're able to find peace.

FWIW, this won't be helping your mental health at all, so please prioritise that in the first instance.

Wishing you well. Thanks

Thank you all for the advice. I am indeed putting myself and my mental health first - this is most definitely not over but I am trying to deal with it in a controlled manner and minimising the stress whilst also confronting the situation. I am not ignoring it by any means and I really don't know what the outcome will be over the next few weeks.

Some of you may not understand why I've not gone in all guns blazing and kicked him out etc. and that is your prerogative, and I very much appreciate your opinion and thoughts, but I'm dealing with it in a manner that I'm comfortable with and that hopefully won't be too detrimental to my mental or physical health (long and short term).

You have to do what's right for you. Glad you're able to deal with it. Stay strong & good luck Thanks
