He’s sharing personal things with others?

I’ve just found out that my boyfriend has been sharing extremely private details about sexual conversations we’ve had with his work colleagues and possibly other people I don’t even know about... am I wrong to be upset about this?
I know people share things but he asked me to pass him his phone so I did and as I did the screen came up with a message from his colleague using what i’d said to him against me as a joke.. and he was laughing about it.

I told him I wasn’t happy but not sure if I’m overreacting now

@twentyviginti Yeah I can see how it comes across as punishing me as that’s what I thought! He unblocked me almost instantly though how weird haha cause he isn’t replying to a message I sent him but can unblock me! Weird! Thanks hun x

Chalk this one up to experience. Sounds like your boundaries are great and you found out he's not a keeper before wasting more time on him. Next! Well done you. 👍

TwentyViginti · 12/06/2020 21:04

Just block him permanently, and be thankful you found out exactly what a low life he is!

MummaJ32 · 12/06/2020 21:07

Aw thank you @wantmorenow 😊

@TwentyViginti I do want to block him back but is blocking him regarded as childish? I’m only asking as people saying him blocking me was xx

Block him. He's toast. Relegated to history. If there is stuff to collect or return deal with it tomorrow. Block tonight and immediately once loose ends tied. He will not be a friend, he's just someone you thought was a possible long term prospect but realized he wasn't good enough. You have been awesome 😊

TwentyViginti · 12/06/2020 21:17

Totally up to you, but had this happened to me, I'd block and delete. I wouldn't give him space on my phone! I'd feel so disrepected.

MummaJ32 · 12/06/2020 21:29

Thank you @wantmorenow & @twentyviginti - you’ve both been so kind to me and made me feel heaps better about myself x

You're welcome, and you have NOTHING to feel bad about. Feel good you had the strength to end it. So many women find excuse after excuse to stay with total dickwads.

You could block him or not - it doesn't matter. Personally I wouldn't give him any reaction now, ever. So I wouldn't block (and it's always useful to see whether someone's still engaging with you or not) but I wouldn't reply either.

Well done, by the way. Never put up with that kind of shit!

He is a disrespectful pig.

Windows and walls is right. Build a big wall and put him outside.

MummaJ32 · 13/06/2020 10:36

Thank you @FizzyGreenWater & @Flittingabout 😊 agreed x

His taking the piss out of you. Get rid of him

MummaJ32 · 13/06/2020 11:46

Relationship is over - still unblocked but also still not had him message back. Guess it shows what he thought of me! Thanks everyone

In this case just block the disrespectful arsehole.
It's no less than he deserves.
No need to get a reply to your message; it's a waste of your headspace and time.
Onwards and upwards.

What a waster.
Well rid OP.Flowers
