Am I wrong for thinking he's cheating

So I've been with my other half for nearly 2 years, recently he's been spending a lot of time on his phone and taking it with him where ever he goes, we've just come back from a weekend away and he completely ignored me all weekend (we went with a few of his friends) Tuesday morning I woke up and saw he was on snapchat, I made a joke out of and he pointblank lied to my face and said that he doesn't even have snap chat,even though I saw him on it, then we went for lunch yesterday and the whole time he kept checking his phone and turning it over so I couldn't see the screen, he point blank refused to sit next to me yesterday on the way home so I had to sit by myself on a 3 hour coach ride him.. Am I being ridiculous to think he's cheating or even talking to another woman? I just don't know what to do ConfusedConfused

That does sound very secretive and in my opinion, would make me question a lot too. I don't think you're wrong for thinking he is cheating but could also be a variety of things. He could have something planned etc?? I think you should simply sit him down and say here's what I know and have seen so you may as well tell me he truth before all trust goes and breaks down our relationship

RatRolyPoly · 21/11/2018 12:41

Well you're absolutely right that there's shit going down on his phone that he doesn't want you to see; does he think you're blind?? And lying to your face that you didn't see what you know you saw... ugh. How long are prepared to live like this? Honestly if it were me I think I'd be having it out with him, and if he continued to treat me like a total mug telling me I don't know the difference between having a phone and being totally weird about it I think that would be a terminal problem for me. Fuck it, I'd make it a terminal problem!

he point blank refused to sit next to me yesterday on the way home

Um, did he say why?

Definitely odd behaviour. And ignoring you all weekend is just bloody rude. Cheating or not, you need a proper conversation about what's going on here.

Trinity66 · 21/11/2018 12:41

Even if he isn't cheating he sounds really rude, disrespectful and uninterested in your relationship

sugersweet · 21/11/2018 12:45

The fact that he lied to me about having snapchat and completely ignoring me all weekend makes me think he's definitely cheating on me, by ignoring me I literally mean if I said said anything or asked him something he'd just act like he didn't hear it, imma be absolutely fuming if he's cheated or speaking to another women while I'm at work or home looking after our daughter, he doesn't come to bed until God knows what time of the night, I get that he could have something planned but I've never once been on his phone or even had a reason too, just makes me feel like he's definitely hiding something that I don't want to hear about x

He's definitely doing something on his phone that he doesn't want you to see.

If you don't want to / are unable to look at his phone yourself you're going to have to ask him why or it'll just eat you up. Believe me I've been there...

I hope it's nothing bad but you're going to have to find out somehow. Good luck x

NotTheFordType · 21/11/2018 12:48

When he gets home tonight, ask him straight away to unlock his phone and let you read it. Right now. If tries to leave the room or delay, tell him its over.

It sounds like he has one foot out the relationship in all honesty.

I've absolutely no idea why he didn't say why he didn't want to it next to me, but I know every time I looked him he was smiling at his phone like a fucking Cheshire Cat😔

sugersweet · 21/11/2018 12:51

I suppose the good thing is he is a really heavy sleeper so if I was to look on his phone I wouldn't get caught 😂 the whole lying about bloody snapchat is annoying me the most as I know he deleted it nearly a year ago so why re download it🤔🤔 then lie to me about it, like imagine if I was doing this he'd lose his shit

RatRolyPoly · 21/11/2018 12:54

Rather than talking to another woman, it could be porn... Well, I was about to post that until you said about grinning at his phone!

Have it out with him.

hellsbellsmelons · 21/11/2018 12:55

And what are his good points?
What is the point of this relationship?
What were his reasons for not sitting next to you on the coach?

GreenFingersWouldBeHandy · 21/11/2018 12:56

Uh-oh. Massive alarm bells now. I think your instincts are right. Sorry. Flowers

sugersweet · 21/11/2018 12:56

I'd not be so bothered if he wanted to watch porn tbh😬 but I just don't know what to think he clearly knew something was annoying me yesterday as everyone else asked me if I was ok other than him, I just never thought 2 years in to our relationship I'd be wondering this 😔

He ignored you all weekend? And refused to sit next to you on a 3 hour coach ride home? For those alone I'd be calling it a day.

Raise your bar - you and your daughter deserve respect. Do not teach your daughter that this is what to expect from the men in her life.

NotTheFordType · 21/11/2018 12:58

Wow, he's making it pretty obvious, isn't he? He wants you to force the issue and end things so he doesn't look like "the bad guy", then up will pop "new" GF in a couple of weeks...

Its literally been the last week or so that all this has started to happen, he's an amazing dad to my little girl, treats her like his own, family days out, loving cari he's just amazing, I just don't know what's changed in the last week

sugersweet · 21/11/2018 13:02

I know for a fact his mom would beat the shit of him for this too 😂😂 she's told me already that he as to ever fuck me and my daughter over he'd be fucked😂 I think it just makes it worse knowing end rather have sat by himself on a 3 hour coach trip

OP posts:
Thankyounext · 21/11/2018 13:03

Refusing to sit next to you on a three hour journey would be enough to question your relationship alone. How rude. Coupled with the phone behaviour, there is definitely something up.

sugersweet · 21/11/2018 13:05

Jesus Christ how the hell am I Kent to move Home now if he's actually cheating on me😫 we've a house, child, dog together 😭

OP posts:
Dirtybadger · 21/11/2018 13:08

Is your DD his earlier? Earlier you referred to her as yours but it sounds like you also have one together? Have you bought the house together?

If he isn't cheating he is lying about something else so it doesn't bode well I'm afraid. :(

MadeForThis · 21/11/2018 13:09

He has no respect for you. He's acting like he doesn't even like you much.

It's how a teenager would dump their girlfriend- by trying to make the girl end the relationship.

How did your friends react when he was so rude all weekend?

I'd LTB regardless. His attitude is disgusting.

rainbowstardrops · 21/11/2018 13:11

He's definitely up to something and acting with utter disrespect to you.
I'd have to confront him and ask what the hell is going on. Or look at his phone. He's clearly hiding something

sugersweet · 21/11/2018 13:16

Dirty badger

We both have children from previous relationships none together, but he's taken her own like she's his own, Jesus he's nearly 27 man and actually like a child 😫😫

Babymammy · 21/11/2018 13:16

He does sound extremely rude ! You deserve better than that.

But from my past experiences, sounds similar to things my ex would do when he had someone else on the go.

I hope u get the answer u want

sugersweet · 21/11/2018 13:19

Imma have to look at his phone😒 I don't think he'd tell me the truth if I asked him otherwise why lie about bloody snap chat 🙃🙃 dear god Imma lose my shit if he is cheating 😭😭
