What would you make of this

Brainstorm anyone?

I LTB because he got a STD which he says he must have got from a prostitute during a three year period where he was visiting prostitutes. For various reasons I don't think he did visit prostitutes. I think he had a FWB. But why would he use a sleazy story when he could have said it was a FWB?

He doesn’t want you to know who the FWB is? Could be someone you know, someone married, a man…

Either way, put him behind you and enjoy your new creep free life Wine

Brainstorm?????

If you've agreed to be exclusive then dump, obviously. If you haven't agreed to be exclusive then, well, it's a risk factor when someone sleeps around. Antibiotics will cure it.

Thanks Wine

Yeah, I thought about a man as it would shame him to admit to that, but I think it's extremely unlikely.

He's not the sort to save anyone else's marriage either.

Regardless of which it was, he gave you an STD, so you're well rid.
But any man who thinks a woman would prefer him to have slept with prostitutes instead of a FWB is pretty fucking stupid.
Unless he had cheated on you, in which case that was the best reason he could come up with? Again, stupid. You're well rid.

I know @Bookworm20 but it's got my brain whirring because when you think about it he could even have come up with a ONS story to explain the STD.
The prostitute story he presented over time changed and has holes in it so I just think it's a massive over compensation, a deflection, to put me off the scent.
Yes I'm well rid but I hate that he assumed I'd not tell adult DC because it is such a shameful story (I told them) I feel like I've been scammed on top of everything else.
