He has form but from years ago.

Just returned from lads holiday.

I left the living room to do something but ended up coming straight back in as forgot something.

He was on an app. Black and green. Shut it down when I came back in which raised suspicion. May have been a green or white W? Can't be sure.

Yes I could ask but they never tell when confronted. Once bitten....

He is into running so could be something like that but haven't seen anything like that.

How did you react when you saw him quickly close the app? Would he have got a sense that you might now be suspicious?

Amsx · 01/07/2024 12:24

I think you're going ti Jane to just say you saw the app he was on and what's he got to say about that?

In my (very limited experience) Kik is used by liars on dating apps.
I just block anyone who suggests Kik as the 3 times I used it, they were married men or not who they said they were.
I wouldn't trust anyone using Kik, but as said - my experience is very limited :)

I stayed calm but then asked him later. No doubt deleting everything.

Just downloaded Kik. Wasn't that.

What did he say it was when you asked him?

chipsandfizz · 01/07/2024 12:25

He said he wasn't on anything and must have been WhatsApp and looked at a few apps on his front screen. Didn't hand phone over or anything. Then we entered into an argument about me wanting to argue apparently. Usual pattern.

Sounds like you should just call it quits to be honest. You deserve happiness

Danbury · 01/07/2024 12:30

If what he's saying is true then I would have expected him to reassure you, not immediately deflect and go on the offensive.

If he actually was up to something secret then his reaction is quite normal. They deflect you and go on the offensive.

WhatsApp can be set to have a black background, mine does. Are you sure it wasn't that?

chipsandfizz · 01/07/2024 12:56

It wasn't WhatsApp. Looked different even with a black screen.

There’s a dating app that’s music taste based that I’m sure has a black and green background. I can’t remember what it’s called, maybe turned up? Something like that.

TeeBee · 01/07/2024 15:16

Oh goodness. Will there ever be a point when you trust him not to cheat again? Is there anything he can possibly do to appear trustworthy to you every again? If not, just get rid, however difficult. You deserve a life not looking over your shoulder, we all do.

Yes I agree likely to be Session which like Kik doesn't require you to sign up with a mobile number or email, so you are giving out no personal information to whoever you are messaging. Had experience of Kik a long time ago when on dating apps, it was always dodgy men trying to get you onto it. Plus some of the stuff on there is rather unsavoury. Got to the point as soon as they mentioned Kik I stopped messaging with them. Not used Session.

Could it be gambling?
