Just come back from holiday

I've just got back from a holiday abroad with my mum. We go to the same hotel every year so know all staff etc and I'm friends with lots on Facebook. Last week I made a comment on fb about the football and a man from where is was staying added a couple of comments. Within a few minutes I got a text from my fiance saying i was making him look like a c*. No contact from him until I got home yesterday only to be dumped by text. In total shock

He sounds like a complete arse. I'd put money on him projecting his own cheating ways on to you. He thought you'd be begging him to not finish things.

I understand it's hard to cut someone out of your life, but you will be so much better for it in the long run. A leopard doesn't change it's spots, he would have got physically violent at some point.

Stay strong, Ju!

You deserve to be happy and to find someone who loves you, treats you kindly and respectfully. Your ex does none of those things and so you shouldn't waste another moment thinking about him.

He has phoned me at work, wanting to be friends and go for a drink. Oh yes and the cat misses me too

So tell him to bring the cat out for a drink to cheer it up 🐱

I agree that you also deserve a better mum, I hope she doesn't have this man in your home ever. You deserve peace away from him.

After a heart to heart with my mum she has realised the exs behaviour is wrong. She is now proud of me for being so strong 😱
Thank you again to everyone who has commented, it has been a huge help to get impartial advice, I'd have probably caved in without it, I'm so grateful 😘

Well done! So pleased you have your mum on side as well.

Glad things are better with your mother OP. You must have been so sad, before, when she was unsupportive. Onwards and upwards to you both. 🌹

he is chipping away at my confidence again. So yes it is time to move on

Yes definately. You really should not stay with that massive tosser. Who the fuck does he think he is? And he cheated on you in the past! Thinks everyone is as shitty as he is. Please find a normal human being. I believe there are some out there!!!

Well done OP.
It's never to late in your life to be kind to yourself and insist on being treated with respect.
If you had accepted this abuse from him, I have no doubt that things would have gotten worse quickly.
He is not a good man.

He's probably baffled that you walked away so easily and haven't fallen back into line with apologies and grovelling like you might have when you were younger. He's not used to the new more confident woman you have become.
