Update to husband getting selfies from his ex

Hi, I had another thread recently asking for advice about my husband’s inappropriate texting relationship with an ex girlfriend. It had reached the stage where he was being really inappropriate and they had made plans to meet when he visits her country.

Well just before he left I told him I had seen the messages. He laughed and said it meant nothing as he was always drunk when he sent the messages. Then tried to say his life is so hard that it had caused him to do this.

I stuck up for myself and told him how inappropriate it was and that I knew his family were involved. So he says he’s going to fix it all while he’s away and has texted to say he won’t be meeting the woman. He was going to speak to his family about their lack of respect for me but I very much doubt he will.

Just thought I would update, I am enjoying being home alone.

Being single rocks. You don’t have to take any shit, just saying

Yes, exactly. "Oh I was drunk, inappropriately messaging my ex, my life's so hard, and I'm going to tell my family how horrible you are..."

"Oh fuck off" would be my answer to that drivel.

I've not seen your other thread but it seems like he's just been using you when the one he really wants and parents approve of?? is back in his home country?

Did you dump him before he left?

I remember your other threads about your DH. He has history for inappropriate behaviour with other women as well as this ex, who lives near his parents. He always needs validation from other women.
You said you had talked to Women's Aid about him previously.
Personally I don't think he will ever change OP.
I'm glad you are enjoying life better without him being around.

I don't care if he was drunk or not when doing this. He obviously isn't sure about you two if he has need to entertain his ex. Either he's all in or he's out.

Please tell me you are not falling for his lies of course he is meeting her.

Do you believe that he's not meeting her OP? Use this time to yourself to really think about what you want your future to be 💐

He's telling you what you want to hear. It could be true, but more likely to be a load of bollocks.
