I feel stupid and pathetic for even writing such a thread but I feel so worn down by his excuses and minimising I don't even know what to think anymore.

I snooped through his phone and found messages of him texting multiple women asking for sex. He was sending pictures of his dick and just generally acting like someone I don't even know. He doesn't talk to me like that so I was really shocked by what I found. He has a pain condition (as a result of a back problem), which affects him a little sexually but we have sex regularly so his excuse to all this sexting is that "I'm not even up to it am I?" Doesn't make sense. He said it was just escapism, boredom, never intended for any of it to go further. But 2/3 women he was messaging he has slept with before he had met me.

We haven't been together long...he says I've been wanting to break up the whole time but my gut instinct just kept telling me something was off for various different things. From making comments about my weight one time. One time he said "gosh you have some extra tyres there" obviously he said it was all banter and not a put down like I told him it was. I'm fat I know that. But he met me on a BBW dating site, so what does he expect?

But now it feels like I'm being blamed for acting untrusting in the past towards him when in actual fact he was making me FEEL like I should be untrusting if that makes sense?

I don't want to seem like a victim so I'm sorry if I come across that way, but I'm so, so, tired and confused. He also tells me he wasn't happy because "I don't listen" I already suffer with anxiety and depression and today has got me wanting to just curl up in bed and not face the world.

(inappropriate). People very very rarely act like this and then happen to be trustworthy, devoted, faithful partners the rest of the time. This is him, unfortunately. Its bad enough on its own but alongside the putting you down (having even met you as a woman being upfront about her figure and dating within that niche, as it were, and the gossiping about you with his 'friends' (they're not friends), and manipulating you .... Another person who really hopes you get away from him.

Actually the gossiping/talking about you and any issues you have to anyone, let alone exes and women he's sexting and trying to fk seems as bad as the sexual behaviour. It's so disloyal and lacking in decency.
