Me and my partner were together from 2012-2016, broke up and went our own separate ways and rekindled our relationship this year. ( we have a 7 year old son together). It’s been great, no problems what so ever and I felt deeply in love with him, even more than before. Then it came out that he had sex with his best friends girlfriend about 3 weeks ago, now it was when he wasn’t with me so it’s technically none of my business but I just can’t seem to let go of the fact he has done this. It’s made me see him in a different light, as someone who is untrustworthy, selfish and disloyal. I’m trying hard not to make this an issue between us but something has shifted/changed and I’ve now got the “ick” with him. I suppose the real question is do you think I could/should move past this ?

Thanks and sorry for my terrible grammar and punctuation 😂

I find once you have the ick there is no going back you wont be able to shake it. (My experience anyway). I find men have different type of loyalties to us woman though sometimes what is big to us isn't them. If you want it to work you will. If you've thought about it not then do what you feel. It isn't for us to say. Xxxxx

It's such a NoNo, I can well imagine it changing how you feel about him.
