I’m 3 months pp and during my pregnancy I found out my boyfriend cheated on me. With both boys & girls.
He’s cheated multiple times before but only with girls. He said he was completely out of it and that’s why it happened. Since found out it happened twice. We had a conversation and if he’s gay, bi whatever tell me so I don’t continue to waste my time. He was adamant it was a mistake.
My trust has completely gone. I’m jealous of everyone. I’m so insecure. I know I should walk away but I don’t want to break our family up.
Help please :(

I'm so sorry this happened! But that man has no respect for you or your family if he's continued to cheated and disrespect you like that, my suggestion would be to walk away because once a person decides to cheat your relationship won't ever be the same, the trust has gone and what kind of relationship is it if you don't have trust. I think you need to put yourself first instead of trying to keep your family together, your happiness means your child's happiness! You deserve so much better x

Im sorry this happened to you
I can only imagine the pain you went through
In your case if you walk away I wouldn’t say that you the one that broke your family
He broke your family the minute he cheated on his pregnant girlfriend
You are just taking the first step towards the right direction and honestly i would say that you will be the one making thr necessary bold step between the 2 of you
He doesn’t seem to know what he wants and unfortunately he’s stringing you along while he decides what he wants in his life xx
I just feel the last 5 years has been a lie. The first time he cheated with a boy was about 2 years in but I only found out when I was pregnant. I don’t understand how you can say it was a mistake to do it with a boy?? Like I’ve never come across it before and I just feel like I’ve been repeatedly lied to and manipulated. It’s so hard because I know I’ll always love him, but I just want to be with someone who respects me. I’m completely devastated

As hard as it is. If you stay you will only be cheated on again and again and you will eventually resent him and you will find it incredibly difficult to co-parent together. You will forever be seeing things in different lights, because you will absolutely hate him for wasting even more of your time. You’ve given him a second chance and he blew it! And that’s how you need to look at it. I agree with get yourself screened for STDs and leave ASAP.

Sweetie you haven’t and won’t break your family up, he has. You can’t live your life sad and miserable it’s going to hurt now but it will get better. I always think if you wouldn’t want your child to be you in this situation then don’t tolerate it. You deserve better, it sounds like your partner may not be heterosexual but whatever he’s a cheater. He’s choosing to get so out of it he doesn’t know what he’s doing, that’s also not okay. Big hugs xx

If he can cheat on you when your pregnant that's awful x
