Dear Lady. Ann
My Boyfriend and I have been dating for 5 years and things have been a bit rocky lately. I have never been the girl that snooped in my man’s phone, but he recently started being so secretive with his phones and laptop. He would be on his phone, but once I stepped into the room, he would put it away. We used to have each other’s passwords, but he has changed
I could not hold it anymore, so I got his new password, waited till he was deep asleep, and I went through his text messages and emails. I saw a registration confirmation from a dating site. I logged into his account on there and I saw his chats with several women. He kept talking about how lonely he was and was looking for the right woman to help him build. He told people he was single and had even planned dates with a few women on there.
I admit that due to the length of our relationship, everything seems like a routine now, but it takes two to get to where we are now. How can he be living with me and still chatting up other women behind my back? I have been nothing but faithful to this man. I confronted him, and he swore never to do it again. As much as I wanted to believe him, I just couldn’t trust him, so I kept snooping and I was right not to trust him. He never deleted his account on the dating site like he promised me, he only changed his password. I can’t deal with all of this. I would love to confront him again, but I am so hurt and bitter. I could break up with him, but it’s been 5 years and we have a child together. Where do I start from? What do I do Lady. Ann?
