I'm absolutely broken and crying, my bf has broken up with me and I've found out he's with a girl barely out of school, I really don't know what to do. We had plans to move into a house and start a family now he's shacked up with someone much younger

That's gross, she's only just legal for sex and he's old enough to be her dad, you're well shot of him, I'd feel sorry for her, it's really creepy that he's preying on a vulnerable teen

That’s disgusting.
As others have said, you’ve dodged a massive bullet here.

how long with him?

but i’m going to guess there’s always been a lot of drama in this relationship

What an unnecessarily bitchy comment. Nothing in the OP's post suggests that.

I'm 31, he's 37

He’s basically a paedophile if she’s 16.

You are well off out of this.

So gross. 20 year age gaps are grim anyway but a 16 yr old.. he is one sick fuck.

I know I feel so sick, to top it off my friend saw him in the pub last night and he was boasting he's got some young fresh meat

Fuck can you find out who her parents are...speak to the police, anything

That is a child

I was that child once 🥺

You’ve had a lucky escape from a total creep.

He’s pushing 40 and exploiting a schoolgirl. He’s far from a prize.

CandyLeBonBon · 16/06/2024 22:42

Grim

Has he never given any indication he's a dirty, scummy perve before? Because that's 0-60 in front of other people.

I've just had no luck with guys, the 2nd engagement that I've had broken, the other one cheated on me days before we were due to get married

@SportGirl

If you really feel this is true, perhaps you may want to look inward and see if you're continuing to choose the same type of man. And if you are, how you can stop doing that.

I recently read a quote that said "I've only made one mistake in my life. The problem is I keep making it over and over". And this was me. I kept choosing the 'same man in a different body'. The only thing that broke that cycle was therapy. It took time, brutal honesty, and hard changes but I did it. And after time found the right man for me.

I know you're hurting right now, but as others have said you dodged a nasty, nasty bullet. Give yourself some time to grieve and heal, then do what you must to make the changes you need to make.
