writes: My boyfriend and I have been dating about 2 years. We have been arguing a lot lately and have broken up some but then gotten back togther. I have never doubted his faithfulness to me. And I know he feels the same about me. So trust has never been an issue. However , he told me Saturday evening he was going to his nieces birthday party( I was having dinner with my family too). and somehow ends up going to a casino an hour and half away and staying the night. I find out the next morning as he drives home. My first thought was he was meeting someone. This is very out of the normal for him to do this. He said he just wanted to get away. However I can't help but find it peculiar. Thoughts? Would you be thinking there's more to the story here or just a guy wanting to get away at a casino , staying the night all by himself. Things that make me go hmmmmmmmm. Reply to this Question Share |

It sounds dodgy to me, if he needed space he should have been honest and told you he needed time to himself, but he didnt he said he was going to his nieces party and ended up at a casino spending the night all alone? Sounds fishy to me, you know him best though so maybe try talk to him about it and tell him how you feel.

One, he had to lie about it. Two, he spends the whole night out in a casino. Three, you have been arguing a lot lately. Not a good mix. I would let it slide for now, but not without keeping my antenna up. How different was this rough patch from all the rest that you had anyways? Men have a different coping mechanism compared with women, depending on the severity of the stress they're dealing with. Hope it works out for the best.

Although I agree it is rather odd, if as you say it is out of the ordinary for him give him a chance. However keep an eye open for things such as constant texting which didn't happen before and keeping the phone at his side, key trademarks of a cheat.Also if he seems to become slightly angry and exasperated at your question on the subject he may very well be lying, but until these things happen it may not be the best to start accusing. Also when talking to his family maybe slip it in the old "oh how did the party go he must have had fun didn't make it home till early hours."ect. Hope it all goes well.

I would go mhhhhhh too.
I don't know... when I feel I need to get away from it all , I usually end up at the public library :). At most at a health -and- beauty spa.
Now there's no law that say you cannot go far from the madding crowd ..to a casino, and stay overnight, but yeah it's peculiar.

He went to a casino all by himself? That just sounds fishy.
