Ending things with cheat

Found out yesterday that my partner has been cheating on me with multiple women.

He doesn’t know I’m aware yet. We don’t live together, no DC.

I still feel in shock. I thought we were happy together. We had plans for the future. I thought we were in love but I know if he loved me he wouldn’t have been able to do this.

How do I handle this with grace and dignity when all I want to do is curl into a ball and cry? I thought this was the love of my life, I’ve never felt the way I feel towards him with anyone else in my life. I’ve had several long term relationships but nothing touches how I feel towards him. I feel so upset I can’t actually put it into words.

@peacelillie, I’m sorry that you’ve had such a devastating blow. How did you discover his infidelity?

He clearly feels entitled to pursue illicit sex and ego validation. This is due to his character flaws and not because of anything you’ve done or haven’t done.

He’s proven himself untrustworthy and uncommitted to monogamy. Not only has he humiliated you, but he has also risked your sexual health. I would swiftly end things without giving him the opportunity to manipulate you with lies and blame-shifting.

@peacelillie, do you have a trusted support system whom you can confide in?
