writes:I have recently found out that my boyfriend has been cheating on me having cyber sex on skype with random girls on the internet. I did this by creating a fake facebook and pretending to be another girl. I know that this is wrong, but I was already positive he was cheating on me, I just needed solid proof so that I wouldn't second guess myself. The problem is that I don't know where to go from here. I know that I do not want to be with him, but I haven't broken up with him yet. I just haven't answered his phone calls or texts since I found out. How do I go about this? Do I give him a reason? Do I tell him that I made a fake facebook? Do I just never talk to him? I'm afraid to start the conversation because he always has a way to manipulate me into either feeling terrible about myself or getting back with him.I really just dont want to talk to him again, but part of me wants to tell him that I know that he was cheating on me. I want to be the mature one, I don't want to make him feel bad or anything like that. I just want to say "I can't trust you anymore and I think it's best we go our separate ways." but is it even worth it? Or should I just leave him wondering as it is and wait for him to get the point by never responding to him? What is the right thing to do?

 hi
well done for finding out the truth. it is maybe a bit futile to tell him what you have done, like you say we will TRY to manipulate his way back in but this time he really has no chance does he? its tempting to leave him dangling, not knowing what he has done wrong but it would also be tempting for me to let him know that i know! i hate cheaters so i would have little game with him first, where i mention things that he and your character have talked about, that there would be no way the 'real you' could've known about.
this jerk needs to be taught a lesson, maybe this could be enough to prevent him (or at least give serious thought) to not doing this again to his next unsuspecting girlfriend. whatever you decide to do, do it in your own time, not because he is getting inpatient at now hearing from you. let him sweat for a bit while you decide

 Well, since you're playing this game, do it until the end, date him in person under this fake user. He'll sh*t bricks when he sees you, when he sees who's behind that user. This way he won't have anything to say in order to defend himself and manipulate you.

 You're right...its not worth talking to such a pathetic creep. I can imagine why you dont even want to go down that road and have that meaningless conversation. But you will have to give him a reason otherwise he would keep dancing on your nerves, and each time you see his number flashing on your cell, it would irritate you even more.
Just tell him that you have reasons to not trust him anymore and you dont want to be with him. Let him just deal with it himself after that...thats his headache. Just completely cut off all contacts with him.

 Well if you tell him and he makes you feel terrible this time, can you blame him? It’s not hard for you to get his attention, since it’s you who’s pretending to be another girl, after-all he likes you! So, why wouldn’t he like “Her”? She is you! Think about it! He fell for you all over again, you said all the things he like to hear, your responses was that of what he would receive from his girlfriend, so all I’m saying is this thing you started don’t count! Stop playing games! You lucky it was you, and not another girl who caught his attention. You got what you asked for! I wish he tell you, he knew it was you alone! LOL! #GROWUP!

Don't let him talk you into anything or make you feel bad- he is the one cheating on you! I can't trust you anymore and I think it's best we go our separate ways is good thing to say to start out. He may try to talk his way out of it but don't listen. If this is a deal breaker for you stick to it and move on.
