So after a 13 month relationship, seeing each other ever fortnight due to childcare and not wanting to rush things with introducing kids due to past relationships.

We've been on holiday etc and have a holiday booked for a few months time.

Never really spoken about feelings just gone with the flow.

weve never had an argument or been stroppy towards each other before.

I've mentioned how I feel as sometimes I feel the relationship is one sided and instead of asking what's wrong ive been told I know where the door is because he's upset that I've questioned his love for me. Somewhat 1st argument and his response had really upset me.

Honestly never felt this way and didn't want to ruin things but I want to feel loved. We have banter towards each other and joke about things but the lovey dovey stuff just is non existent.

He's now saying I remind him of his ex and why can't I be happy and wants some time to think. I think he is unable to see what my problem is. And I don't want to make matters worse by saying I'm hurt by being compared to someone else.

So I've just said "ok, have a good evening. Speak soon" (I really don't like conflict or want to argue)

Have I done the right thing?

This is what my ex did at the beginning of our relationship and I’d be sat there being like why is he brining her up. It would be so random too so it throws you off doesn’t it.

Turned out years into the relationship I found out he was seeing her and me at the same time and this is what he did. He always overlapped relationships and never shut the door on exs completely.

We were due to be married when I discovered photos on her social media of them having I shit you not a champagne and lobster lunch. His crazy response was that she had an eating disorder and her hair and teeth were falling out so he just wanted her to eat.

When I spoke to the ex turned out non of that was true 😂 that is the level some of these guys will lie and still try to paint themselves as the good guy.

Wow! That’s quite some lengths he went to with this deception 😖
