Hi . I’ve been seeing my boyfriend for nearly 3 years . It’s been rocky . We don’t live together or have kids together . Me in 40s him 50s.
He text me yesterday to say he has gone away abroad for a few days alone, to get his head straight (had some health and relationship worries).
I replied saying I feel he has been deceitful and lied to me - as he must’ve known he was going and didn’t tell me . I said I feel very hurt and I don’t believe he is alone as his phone is switched off.
I don’t know if he has gone with friends, maybe even a woman - although that’s the least likely.
But am I being unreasonable by being upset and expecting him to have told me his plans .

we haven’t even properly broken up.

Yes, you have. What more do you need?

He bogged off abroad without telling you beforehand.
He has blocked you on Whatsapp.

That translates as "we're through".

Your first mistake was taking him back after he cheated.
Don't make another by hanging around and taking him back if he shows up again.

Of course you can stay in your new town because you broke up, that's daft - you'll just have to branch out on your own and make your own social network. Otherwise, move back somewhere you have connections, or somewhere new. Don't let some bloke dictate your life, fgs.

Doesn’t sound like he’s making you happy

He’s blocked you. It’s over. Move on.
