Bf downloaded dating app while I'm pregnant

Hey ladies just looking for abit of advice because I don't know what to do. Basically me and my boyfriend have been together for a while and he has been on dating apps/talking to other woman twice before in our relationship and he swore he'd never do it again so I forgave him and took him back. Yesterday I seen on his phone he had a well known dating app on his phone and I confronted him about it and he said he only downloaded it because he was stressed and because we had a little disagreement (it wasn't even a argument) he said he never spoke to anyone on it, but he's done this twice before and I have a feeling if I didn't see it he would of spoken to other woman on it and its the fact I'm 5 months pregnant with his child and he still downloaded it. I honestly don't know what to do. I'm so upset that he'd do it again and this time while I'm actually pregnant! I feel like if I forgive and forget so easily this time he will do it yet again. I'm torn on what to do right now.

Dump him or tolerate, my friend chose to tolerate for half a century. If it had a pulse he was there.

In the gentlest way, I'm not sure what you expect. He has shown his true self not once, but twice before, and is now doing it again.

He won't change.

I see you have posted threads before about him.
That's who he is: he won't change OP.
You would be much better off without him.

“he swore he'd never do it again so I forgave him and took him back”

This is where you went wrong. He’s a liar and a cheat and he’s never going to change. You deserve better.

He’s not your boyfriend he’s anyone’s boyfriend.

He isn't your boyfriend.
You are in a one sided open relationship.

Three strikes.

What did he do to change after you found him cheating before besides make meaningless promises? Did he go to therapy?

Your options are do what you've been doing and he keeps on cheating or leave.

Get your ducklings in a row and prepare for a single motherhood 100%. Forget about this cheat, he has no respect for you. Sorry!
