Question - (20 April 2011) 9 Answers - (Newest, 21 April 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, *eardrop3 writes:

Hi I am 43 years old and my partner is 48. Tonight we had an argument and I am wondering if we should break up for good? He openly admitted tonight that he chats and flirts with other women but is only interested in me cos he loves me...I am a very insecure person so this did not go down well. Secondly I nearly always pay for the meals out and that is beginning to bother me. He did have a lot of females (95%) were young but he did delete them after we argued about this as I got a nasty email about him as regards this. We have been together 9 months now and I am just not sure what to do now. Thanks

mrg123 agony auntHmmmm have had a look at your other post. Not really qualified to advise on the issue there but is there any trust left in the relationship? I think that is the major problem....

mrg123 agony auntYour quite welcome. The key thing is not to take this out on yourself. Easier said than done, I know especially given what you have gone through which is horrific. You have certainly reinforced my view that the last thing you need is to carry on with this guy who will only make you feel worse. Time needs to be spent on healing yourself which is probably going to be a long process but worthwhile in the end. Your welcome.Good luck and take care :)x

Thanks for your reply. Yes I am very insecure due to my marriage of 14 years was partly filled with drink,verbal,physical and mental abuse. Then I had another relationship..we got engaged but with him he put me down all the time especially the way I spoke,never really said my name but if he wanted me he always shouted "Oi" again he was another one for online women....maybe my bad luck but hey ho lol.Thanks again x

mrg123 agony auntHe's only interested in you because he loves you??? Okay, so thats a new one. Problem with this line of reasoning is that doing these things means he *doesnt* love you at all. I don't think this is going to work to be honest, I dont trust him not to go back to his old ways and neither should you. What you have to ask yourself is how far would have gone had he not been caught?

Your a very insecure as well so I would be highly surprised if you could trust him again and *even if* he did genuinely change his ways this thought would always be nagging away at the back of your mind. I think its time to let this one go to be honest. Sorry but I just dont see this working and I think you know that deep down. Good luck and take care.
