    So, i saw my boyfriend’s ex mistress (added him on facebook) we broke up over her, cause they were talking online when me and him were dating for 7 months. They had an affair for 6 months before he met me, she left him and returned to her husband, her husband never found out about the affair. Yet she kept a secret facebook to talk to my boyfriend even when she knew he was with me.

    So he deleted her and took her back on facebook when i broke up with him. And when we got back together a second time, he once again deleted her and wrote her stuff, but he deleted those messages.

    So i saw she added him, and he denied the request, but he hasn’t told me? Any input?
    I just feel maybe he still has feelings for her or something to hide, why would he not tell me she tried again to add him. This woman just have a hard time letting go it seems?

    How did you see it if he denied the request?

    If I were in that position I wouldn’t have said anything either. Why stir the pot over a non-issue? He denied her request and he’s moving on. He knows that this woman has been a problem for you two in the past and he doesn’t want to reintroduce her into your relationship.

    Well i was standing in the kitchen and i saw from behind that he got a friend request and it was her but, he didn’t catch me seeing it. And later i saw she wasn’t on his friend list. Well he has lied to me about her for 7months said she is an ex, notthing about their affiar or that she was married.He even wrote here back then that he loved only her and she is more special than me.

    Of course i am concered here, and if he starts talking to her then I’TS OVER FOREVER.

    im just so scared..understand please.

    I think either you trust him or you don’t.

    It’s not that I don’t understand what has lead to your feelings, I do.

    Either you can say, “I trust him and I believe he isn’t talking/seeing her” or you can twist yourself up inside wondering if/when he’s going to do it again.

    This isn’t encouraging but you have to know, they don’t have to be FB friends for them to message on there. When it comes to cheating, if there’s a will there’s a way.

    If it’s going to eat at you, ask him. If he’s calm and forthcoming thats a good sign. If he’s angry and defensive, thats a bad sign.

    Thanks, Jules,

    Yes, he can’t see her now, me and him are leaving aboard but, she lives 6 hours away from him in his country. But she even offered him to come and work in her city when me and him was broken up, but for some reason he didn’t.

    What is concerning is that he deleted her and deleted their messages, i wonder still to this day why he deleted her messags, was it something i wasn’t supposed to see?

    To be honest, he lied about being on a dating site and talking to 20 other women on their while i broke up with hm, only 5 days he started dating other girls + his ex . i found this out he never told me about he started talking to her so fast.

    I just dont know if he truly loves me, and i do not trust him fully. if i found out he talks to her behind my back, do you think i should end it?

    You either have to trust him and let go of these issues or you’re going to have to have a conversation with him. It will only hurt you in the long run if you bury these issues

    Hi,,would you like your bf to read messages you wrote to your last bf? Why would he tell you about her having an affair – she wasn’t his mistress – he wasn’t the one married!!
    You need to calm down sweetie! People have a way of revealing things as time progresses. We all have a past. Why would he want her – she’s not available, it was probably just sex but with you he wants a relationship properly. He’s done everything he can to appease you, if you carry on you’ll drive him.away!
    Maybe when you ended he went back so quickly because he needed his ‘wonds licking’ men are not women – they don’t want to feel the pain, they just want it gone and for someone else to make it better….you have to trust he wants to be with you.
    This is about your lack of confidence imo and that is something YOU need to work on – because whether its this guy or another, id you don’t sort that out happiness will evade you!

    Well he lied about alot of things, you don’t seem to understand here why i misstrust him. IT IS NOT OK TO SIT AND TALK TO YOUR MISTRES ONLINE AND LIE ABOUT IT. You just try to tell me it’s me, well would you like your bf to sit and write to his ex messages about that he wants her …or that she is more special than you?

    PLUS I DO NOT WRITE MESSAGES BACK TO MY BOYFRIEND, I START FRESH IN A NEW RELATIONSIHP NO LIES, NO EX CONTACT. HE DOES NOT OBVIOUSLY DO THE SAME, so your scenario is not even logical

    Hi emelie,
    I think you need to have a clear idea about when he did what. To me it sounds like he did a lot of stuff when you were broken up and before you and him got together. That’s not cheating on you. Maybe he lied about it, but still he was a free agent single.
    If he really did cheat on you, its a different story, but i cant tell, because i don’t really understand the timeline you are describing. Good luck

    Emelie, you seem pretty clear on how dishonest this guy is. So why do you want to stay with him? If you don’t have a foundation of honesty, you have nothing to work with.

    I completely agree with you. He is a cheater too since he is involved with her. It shows the level of integrity he has. It is not unlikely that he is in love with her, but he can’t have her since she is already married, so the next best thing…second best (you?).

    You already broke up once because of her. Really the only thing you can expect from people is what they have already done. People do change, but he is showing you the direction he is putting his focus.

    So, the question really is what do you want to do about it?

    Thanks Bedazzle,
    you’re message made me smile.

    Yes, to me he is a cheater. And what is worriying is that he didn’t even tell me she tried to add him. Also he lives with me now, and i’m paying for everything, he has no job or money at the moment. I feel just like a “supporter” not that he truly loves me, yet im giving alot of love to him.

    Also i see that he likes this girls picture on facebook, and i saw in his web history that tehre was a message to her, but in his inbox no message at all. i just feel like the mistress same thing he might be hiding things. We had major fights about this and i’ve cried alot. he can only say im sorry its my past,i dont see anything wrong with his ex mistress.

    he wants us to go back to his country and live there, which im not so fond of cause i have my work here, and i dont feel comofortable meeting his family cause i just feel something odd about him. i just keep thinking about what he has done .. and im scared what if it happens again. I feel we have so different values of morals, integrity and so on. He also drinks and smokes alot. I’m sad… i feel like i made a bad choise with him. cause i dont deserve this.

    Hi Emelie-you answered your own question-you do not trust him, accept his habits rtc. etc. and feel you made a bad choice in him. Okay,this is easy-just un-choose him. Tell me that things are not working for you,wish him well and move on. Whether it is yor insecurity or he is not trustworthy the bottom line is that you are unhappy and this seems unlikely to change. Good luck.

    I agree with Peggy. I think you have made it clear to yourself that this guy is not the right guy for you. He sounds pretty troubled to me too. Men NEED to be productive and when they are not their life can spiral downward. Sounds like he is moving in that direction and that you don’t want to go with him.

    You are not a victim. Just like Peggy said, you can un-chose him.

    If you feel something odd about him, trust that. Women’s intuition is very powerful and I think you are right.

    If I were in your shoes, I would ask him to leave. It is not your responsibility that he has put himself in this financial situation. Plus, kicking him out might give him the motivation to get his life back on track. I doubt he is happy with himself. A guy sponging off a woman is pretty pathetic and deep inside him, he knows that.

    Take care of you and always trust your gut. Once you get past this, I am sure you will find a good guy who wants to be with you and only you.

    Dear Emelie,

    I think you have your answer.

    You are not happy and you see that you do not deserve this. You dont trust him (which I think is justified) and that’s the basis of a relationship, this relationship can never succeed so better to end it now.

    Luckily you live in your own home and you dont depend on him.
    So tell him and he should leave as soon as possible!!! you shouldnt have supported him in the first place,

    Emelie,

    If it is a friend of urs fell in ur situation, I am sure u’d ask her to leave the guy. I get that u r constantly worried about him messaging her or “cheating” on u. When u said u had made a wrong choice, we all agree. But you really were happy to hear it when we suggested u leave him. So, what is it that is so difficult to leave him, what arr u scared of?

    Girls, you are wonderful.

    I need all of your support.

    So recently, or past weeks he is very agressive, caues he supports him self or trying to win money online on poker. When it does not go well he gets aggresive, throws things around him, or goes outside and punch the wall, i saw on his hand it had a bruise. He is full of agression i feel. He has never touched me or so, but he has done emotionally hurful things , thats been mentioned about.

    He usually uses weed to kind of deal with this agression, but its expensive now where we are and i can’t give him money for it, even if he begs me to do it.

    I guess this agression might come from the unprodutivity, no higher education, debts, no job wants to gamble. He really got a good girlfriend in me, i’ve really done so much for him.. but it dosent seem to truly matter cause of what he has done ..our history and his actions.

    I see on his facebook there is this single mother on there , it seems maybe that he got a thing for her, cause he has said some lies here too. It’s like he would go with anyone, no values no nothing?

    I know i’m unhappy. i must take this serious now and just find away.

    haha holy crap. this is one of those moments where i had to wrack my brains and try to figure out if the guy you are dating is an ex of mine. (it’s not.) completely spot on: the anger, the online poker, the weed, the aggression, the mooching, the low morals. trust me, girl: ask him to not let the door hit him where the good lord split him.

    this is literally the gif i showed my guy when i realized what was happening and i was tired of his mooching:

    You have expressed that you made a bad choice, but if you learn from this, it was not a mustake.

    Oh honey you are in trouble. This guy has major life issues and has no capacity to be a good boyfriend, partner or even friend until he sorts himself out. Only he can do that and it does not sound like he is close to figuring that out.

    That your concern about him is that he may be lying tells me you are blind to what is really going on with him.You are in a toxic relationship. You need to sort yourself out too. The two of you being able to do that for yourselves in the company of each other has odds greater than winning the lottery of succeeding.

    I doubt you can hear what I am saying, but I do hope something responds inside you, like your gut knowing what I am saying it true.

    Take care of yourself. Give yourself permission to take care of yourself. Relationships are supposed to be fun and overall good for you. As long as you are unhappy, you will know you are going in the wrong direction. Focus on making yourself happy, when you follow your happiness, life becomes fun and good for you!

    So, what you do is make plans to stay with a GF for a few days. On the day you are ready you put on your hat and coat…you tell him this is not working for you and he has 3 days to get out….if he is not out by then you will call the police to escort him out.

    You leave and go to your friend. You stay there three days, you call him on day three and ask if he is out…if he is out you go home….if he is not out you call the police to get him out…you do not go home until he and his things are out.
