Did l do right

Feeling quite fragile today as no one to speak to in real life. DP stayed over on Friday night after night out with the boys. Fell asleep on the sofa. His phone pinged and l looked, at the locked screen. It was a message from a woman in her twenties, saying that age didn't matter and wishing him goodnight. He is in his fifties and has said several times over the last few weeks that he is not on socials. Anyway after some digging, l found an Instagram account he has, and also the woman's account plus others he is following. He denied this when he woke up. Definitely not following anyone etc. I asked him to leave, which he did. The following day, his account is deleted. This guy has been very kind, always there for me or so l thought. I'm very hurt just now. I feel that l can't trust him anymore. Did l do the right thing, in my head l feel l did. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Yes you did the right thing. He’s a bad egg.

Daffodiltimeishere · 25/02/2025 09:46

You found out he lies and you found out he is pursuing other women.

You found out who he is beneath the mask.

So yes OP you did the right thing.

You did. If you can't trust him, he's not going to be any good to you.

Yes you did. If there was a good reason he'd have a younger woman assuring him age didn't matter you would know about it. I'm talking about doubles rowing or forming a professional singing duet or something. Otherwise he's arsing about. It may only be online so far but do you want that going on?

You did the right thing in asking him to leave. He was both lying to you and cheating on you in plain sight.

Shoxfordian · 25/02/2025 10:19

Yes of course you did, he was cheating on you

You defiinitely did the right thing. If you let him lie his way back into your good books, the lack of trust will eat away at you.
Onwards and upwards for you.
