Well well well what an absolute c*t! I hate that word but yep what a c*t!!
In a relationship with a man for 11 months, had the exclusive chat. See each other regularly, relationship seemed good. My friend has just sent me a screenshot of him on a dating site... so at 1st I tried to look at it as positively as can be ...maybe it's an old profile... but no he likes her profile and he has recently been active.

I am so hurt and gutted but I'm happy to say my anger has taken over!!!! We were meant to see each other for the whole weekend this weekend coming all planned, dinner booked, swimming, walks a lunch, cinema... obviously now im not going... any advice on what I should message, I dont feel he is owed the dignified face to face end it... seriously what an absolute bastard!!!
I don't want to be hysterical in my msg , classy would be good but also let him know what I have been shown!
I'm so glad he has never met this friend!! He has no idea who she is ... utter scumbag

He didn’t believe me, said I was just saying it to get back at him for moving on with someone new, I had early scans due to some bleeding around about 8 weeks, that confirmed there was 2 babies, I made him come to the scan so he couldn’t keep saying it was all a lie.

Sadly we lost them at 16 weeks, and all he could say was “I take it that’s my fault for all the stress I put you under”.

What a horrible horrible man

So been here, it’s soul wrenching!!! eventually bumped into the ‘see you next Tuesday ‘ a few months later - he said he was devastated I suddenly and completely just cut him off and never had contact again- he didn’t understand and I offered no closure. It’s the way forward but you have to be strong not to respond to the pathetic follow up whining - Narcissistic torture - enjoy 😊

Loubelle70 · 24/05/2024 22:06

Id just send the screenshot of the dating profile...then block him..no other words

squidgybits · 24/05/2024 22:06

Wow! @OldPerson
I hope you are ok OP, I am afraid to tell you that this is one of those horrid things we have to do, like taking out the foul smelling trash , nobody wants to but it has to be done
Felt my whole life was a lie @ betrayal - I feel you! Now it is up to you to make your life what you want it to be , GO FOR IT! - after you heal from this atrocity
Better things await you! Clear out the crap and better will come
Sending support, Love, light and hugs XXX

If he messages you to ask where you are, say you are on a date. When he says that is awful, let him know what you know, perfect revenge.

I'm so very very sorry. I can't imagine how utterly heartbreaking that must've been for you. 💔💐

Is anyone else worried that the other profile isn’t the OPs boyfriend and she is dumping him over a massive misunderstanding?

I would get your friend to arrange to meet up with him OP so you can see who turns up, just to be sure.

Beach11 · 24/05/2024 22:25

How are you op? All go ok?

Rebook your dinner date for the most expensive restaurant in town, order the most expensive meal and champagne, if you normally split the bill, leave your purse at home, tell him you’ll pay him back later. While he waits for the bill, say your going to the loo and get a taxi home. Send him the screenshot and block him. You can do so much better than this prat, forget him and move on.

Hello 👋🏼 so here we go ... I've just got home from my friends.

Thank god you found out what he's really like. Well done for being strong! X

GuinnessBird · 24/05/2024 22:34

So you're just going to ghost him? At least tell him you know what he's been doing.

Apolloneuro · 24/05/2024 22:34

Does he know where you live? Might he come round if you just ignore him?
