Long story try to keep short. Partner of 10 years(two kids) went to family wedding last year. Made an argument to ensure I didnt go. Took the kids. Came back and said "selling the house,moving back" 4 hours away to where we moved from. Completely disconnected from me. Went on already booked holiday where he taunted me "make the most of it,im gone when we get back" Was in bits whole holiday. Made it clear he cant just sell andd
expect us to follow. Kids settled etc. Anyway with that he was normal and nice and said we would make a go of itConfused. Whole year of not really getting on. Twice taunted me "I did cheat you deserved it" then convinced me he had just said it to hurt me. My gut feeling was off scale. Found out other week he has been messaging ex if around 16 years ago (mother of his grown up Daughter). Reminiscing about old times,how she still loved him and they should give it another go. Him telling her how horrible I have been to him. I dont get on with his parents(they are very interfering and when he has seen them we row). This could have been going on for months. He could have done more,will I ever know. Im distraught. Feel so betrayed that he is talking to her about our relationship, our kids and making me out to be an awful person. Never knew emotional cheating would be so painfu. I said it would have been easier if he had with some random person. One minute he is sorry,next he is his usual cocky self. Not really doing much to reassure me. If it wasnt for kids I would be gone. Im too old in the tooth for drama! Keep convincing myself I can get throufh this but im crying every night he is at work. Not sure why posting . Havent anyone close by to talk to xx

That’s awful he sounds horrible! Can you leave him? He obviously has little or no respect for you (taunting you) tries to control you (moving thing) and blatantly cheats on you.
So he said he’d be gone, why is he still around?
You deserve a lot better than this, being single forever would be a better option! Xoxo

Come on OP, take control here, get angry, no one has the right to treat you like this, kick his cocky little arse right out the door and dont look back

He's awful!!! Mollie3 is right, trust me, being single is a much more relaxing life xxx And almost anyone new you meet would be an improvement.

You need to leave him. But if you can't, go to therapy and get strong so you can. You are wasting your life with this abomination.

There are no redeeming factors here to stay in the relationship. He is a cruel and horrible man. Don't waste any more time on him!
