She goes to his run club. I’d voiced I had concerns when I was pregnant and was was overly friendly to him when we attended a GP appt and she was there. He told me it was nothing. I was overthinking it. She just recognised him from run club is all.
After I gave birth we went to the run club venue and she shared his chair. I said then I found that odd. He said it was nothing. I was overthinking it.
I told him I felt vulnerable. Insecure. My body had changed and I didn’t feel attractive.
I went on his phone and he’d been messaging her. He sent something then unsent it. She said she’d seen and he replied ‘Good. I’m glad. Genuinely ❤️’. She loved it. He said ‘in a different world’.
He then gave her his number and she responded with hers. He then went on to tell her I was mad at him and he’d be sleeping in the spare room. I was mad because he’d come home drunk and our 3 month old was sick, so I couldn’t hand over. He didn’t tell her that. She replied saying she was drunk and it must be from all the G&Ts he’d bought her.
I confronted him. He said I’m making out that he’s cheating. I said I was going to message her and ask what he sent but deleted. He said ‘thanks for ruining run club’. Am I overreacting? I feel broken. Like someone has scooped out my insides.

Maybe do an uno reverse card on him see how he feels I know that’s tit for tat but sometimes people need a taste of their own medicine sometimes 🤔❤️

You’re not overreacting at all, what he’s doing is a form of cheating - he’s keeping secrets, sending messages such as in another world, there’s really only one explanation for it in my opinion. I don’t think you are overthinking and don’t let him gaslight you into thinking that’s the case

That’s not an overreaction. He is over stepping boundaries, heck they both are! You have solid proof via the messages. I wouldn’t drop it, that’s emotional cheating. 🥺

I agree with all the ladies he’s overstepping a boundary that you’ve vocalised multiple times. Your feelings are 100% valid xx

I had the exact same thing with my baby daddy except he was seen kissing the girl in a pub not just buying her drinks. I left him at 4months postpartum. She moved in a week later and he never sees his daughter. I hope you can work it out! But if he doesn’t see what he’s doing is wrong he never will and u need to get out while you can before it breaks you like it did me!❤️❤️

Not over reacting at all, if he can’t understand your boundaries towards other women he is dead wrong. If the tables turned he would be mad. You don’t buy drinks for someone just from run club. Absolutely disrespectful. If my husband tried anything like that I would not let it go. He simply cannot respect boundaries which is unacceptable. He’s gaslighting you

That's cheating. Leave.

My partner has been paying to have sex with women he finds online on a specific website. My baby is only 7 months old and I found out he has been doing this since I was pregnant. He won’t admit it and will say I’m crazy and making things up although I saw everything on his phone. He tells me loves me and doesn’t want to lose his family. I really wanted to have a family. We barely have conversations, sex or do any couple stuff, he spends more time at work or hanging out with friends every day off he gets. I only see him for a few hours every week even though we live together. I’m asleep before and when comes back from work as he has 2 jobs. We were only a fling and I got pregnant 2 months after us meeting but he begged me to keep our baby and to stay in our relationship, and now it feels like I’m the one who begged.
I no longer feel beautiful or confident and keep comparing myself to the women he’s meeting up with (they look nothing absolutely nothing like me). It’s affecting my whole life as I barely have any motivation to do fun stuff with my baby or to even brush my teeth and make myself look nice.
Any advice?

Does anybody claim their a single parent even though they are not to get extra help?
I want a year off on maternity with my baby but me and my partner are realising we can’t afford it. We won’t get anything as we both have jobs and a mortgage.
But during maternity I’ll be getting hardly anything .
Anyone done it or been in this position?
I get it if no one will comment as of course people will want to remain anonymous.

My partner of 8 years proposed on Sunday night. Of course I said yes. But I am devistated at how he did it.
I wanted something romantic- a day out together/weekend away/we have a holiday planned in a few weeks could have done it then/scavenger hunt with places we’ve been.
He did it in front of the tv whilst we were watching breaking bad the ep where Hank gets shot. He said nothing more personal than in our home. Fine but then make it romantic. So many lovely ways to do it - Monica and chandler way candles.
He said he couldn’t wait any longer which I know is sweet but it’s also about him. I have been waiting my whole life for this moment.
I have given him the ring back and said I love you it’s a million yes’s to you and the ring but I just want something a bit more romantic. Aita?

Hello! I’m a 24 year old mom to a 3 year old and I’d love to find besties either in my area or FaceTime buddies!
I just moved to Fort Worth from Iowa with my husband and I don’t know anyone in the area. I’ve had some falling outs with a lot of my friends from back home due to unnecessary drama.
I’d love to just be able to talk about our hobbies, get coffee, have play dates, maybe start a book club? Basically anything that’s drama free, I’m down for!
I’m a yapper and clingy so definitely message me if you’re interested in chaotic texts throughout the day, book rants, gossip, and just sitting on FaceTime while we both get things done around the house.
