Long story short he's cheating, says not but caught him out in a web of lies about a woman. It is what it is and the lying alone is enough if that makes sense but I'm 99%sur eit more.
My house I own outright pre relationship. One joint child, 3 dsc.
Im asking him to leave, he has somewhere to go to namely family. But I'm prepared to give him 28 days to get something sorted.
What do I need now... sort Internet (only thing in his name). What else? Childcare? Cms?
He's going to likely fight me on him leaving but knows its what I want. I desperately wnat to keep things okay and civil for our joint child plus to ensure his relationship with half siblings is okay.

Probably not going to make this time much less painful for you, but just wanted to say you're going to look back on this one day soon and be SO proud of yourself and how well you've handled it!

Good luck with your exams.

Any chance of getting a Dr's note? My fil died on a Sunday, needed post mortem, funeral Friday my finals at 1st/2nd class level the following week. I got a note - don't know if I needed one but I got one just in case. I was almost a bit shocked when I passed.

Billy1966 bit harsh. He want like this, the drugs actually make sense tbh as he changed and I think the timing match up. The lies are unforgivable and I'm just sad now. It will be fine.
I've spoken to work and exam bored academic team. I've spoken to a counselling service to help me work through this sensibly. I've got some emergency childcare provision in place for the next week at least. Got my keys back to the house.
Ive just got to phone the Council to sort single person discount etc out. I have an apoitmnet booked with a family solicitor just so I know my position and to ensure my son is safe.
I will be fine (if I say it enough I will belive it)

@Pleaseaddcaffine well done on getting the practicalities sorted.

You will be fine, honest.

OP, that wasn't meant to be harsh to you, just a warning.

MN is full of stories of young solvent women recruited by recently single men that need an au pair/skivvy, preferably with a home to take on their parenting role.

They often have a child with the new partner to trap them in their role.

Most women with self esteem would think twice before they would settle for a man with three children that moves into their home.

I mean it kindly, but most women would say no thanks.

This was not a good deal for you.

He will definitely try and reconnect with you now that he has lost his comfy number.

Going forward protect your.
You deserve better for sure.
