My boyfriend started a new job on Tuesday morning we had falling out on the Monday night and he had said it was done and after his work he would be staying at his friends house. He left out 6 Tuesday morning I wasn't up and from then he's been leading me on saying we're done he's not coming home then we are together now the latest is he's saying we are on a break to Friday. He's not been home since that Tuesday morning he's said both on Wednesday and Thursday afternoon he would come and see his daughter for a few hours as she's not been well and has been up a lot during the night so I am shattered and could do with a nap. But cancelled both times with no excuse he said it's not a break if he comes to the house and he'll see her Friday when the break ends. I just find it very suspicious I haven't really heard from him a lot what are you thoughts?

I think that "on a break" means that he's shagging someone else.

This is very strange, I feel like something suspicious is going on. Do you know who the friend is?

You will feel much better if you make the decision not to have him back, rather than letting him mess you about like this. It's pretty obvious that he's got someone else. What a nasty piece of work to do this to you.

Yeah I know the friend he's supposedly staying with

I am so fed up of crying about it I feel like he's absolutely making me look like an idiot not only is he letting me down but also our little girl something I never thought he would do

He can't have a break from being a father for 4 days. That's not how parenthood works!
He's an arsehole.

He is either shagging around or treating you so badly that you beg him to come back and he knows you will let him treat you like shit and be grateful for little he does.

Or possibly both of the above

Well my answer to his “we’re on a break” would be “great. Only til Friday? Can we extend it to next August?”

My first thought was control freak. Closely followed by manchild.

Sorry, no advice, but he’d be getting the sharp end of my tongue on Friday. Don’t be upset OP, be bloody furious.
