You need out ASAP. Find a partner who makes allowance for your feelings.

He flipped out because you were upset about his cheating behaviour & he wants you to feel disgusting. The longer you are together the worse it will get as he continues to lose respect for you, if he really ever had any. Get out now before it degenerates into physical abuse. That's on the way if you stay.
All the best.

@Pikachu irdc what other people think, i can assure you that
curiosi · 61-69, F
What you love is the idea of who you thought he was. He is abusive and that isn't going to change. Have no choice but to leave.
@curiosi good advice!
SweetMae · 70-79, F
Typical behavior of an abusive SO. He will not change. Only get worse. Stay safe.
SW-User
Leave. He's a narcissist. Hurts you then blames it on you.
I'm so sorry .

I think you know all the answers, it's just really hard to act on them....

If you were promised a monogamous relationship then that's what you both agreed to.. he can't just change that without consulting you. And if you disagree and want what was promised then that does not make you disgusting in any way!

It's a classic manipulation technique to get angry and blame the other person when you have been caught doing something you know you shouldn't...

You said "relationship" not "marriage". Therefore , you are not "trapped".

If you want out, leave his ass. 🧳🚗 💨

Do it while he's at work 💁‍♀️
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@iamnikki Find the location of a women's shelter first if necessary.
TheArbitrator · 36-40, M
@SweetMae Women's shelter? Have you ever been to one? They're horrible.
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@TheArbitrator Fair enough ... they are in some places. Just find a safe place first.
Im so sorry.... must be horrible to feel betrayed.

Accept that it will not get any better.... make a decision... and stick to it...

{@kindaneedhelp] there there this is none of your fault and do not let him send you on a guilt trip when he has been caught red handed cheating . i assume he is your partner / boyfriend and you are not married if you have no financial ties involving the both of you i suggest you pack up your thing and go back to either your parents or see if you can stay with a friend until you can get back on your feet.you need to kick this guy into touch rapid as any relationship involving him will never work as he lacks any total commitment and just wants to play the field . he is basically a louse who is a waste of oxygen
He just asked why more people aren’t asking for clarification. Some people are really jealous. He (the so) may not have meant any harm at all. @smiler2012

@Spoiledbrat so basically we are jumping on the band wagon to give this woman help and advice she has asked for without knowing both sides of the story
TheArbitrator · 36-40, M
@Spoiledbrat Some people enjoy ruining other people's relationships, especially when they've been hurt and have the mindset that they will never find happiness. A lot of relationships/marriages that could have been salvaged, have been wrecked because of someone giving bad advice. I'm not advocating that anyone remain in an unhappy relationship but as the says goes - the grass isn't always greener - and often times, it isn't.

I have seen bitter single mothers convince other women to leave their husbands - tearing the whole family apart - no consideration for the kids who are involved. I'm not saying anyone should remain in an unhappy marriage solely for the kids, but when children are involved, I do believe they should be considered. I have also seen couples who were at brink point make a decision to work things out and now they're happy.

Sometimes people are just unhappy no matter who they're with and they blame their significant other. They enter into the next relationship - it works for a while; then again, they're unhappy. They find reasons to accuse and leave. This cycle doesn't end until person realizes they're the reason for their own unhappiness.

So why do you stay?
kindaneedhelp · 26-30, F
I have no one else, I’m heavily pregnant with his child and can’t think of a way to fully get away from him @ozgirl512
BadLion · 51-55, M
Talk to him straight forward about your feelings.

If you can't or don't find a way to let him know your feelings, then this relationship is not real.
@BadLion Read her post rather than making her repeat herself:
I’ve made a couple of posts about how I’m struggling with my relationship, however it somehow got even worse tonight after I caught him messaging other women and he absolutely flipped out on me and called my disgusting for getting upset and crying over it, he made me feel like dirt for wanting a monogamous relationship with him like he promised me when we first got together.
I’m trapped and have no idea how to get out.
I can’t live like this, he makes me feel so horrible about myself, yet I still love him and want him, it’s tearing me apart.
BadLion · 51-55, M
@bijouxbroussard I read this post but her 2 other posts are heartbreaking, and she is pregnant and lonely.

Her partner is obsessed with Social Media life: followers and likes. Which cause real life problems.

I think she is really trapped.
@BadLion Yeah, it sure looks like it. And she is pregnant. I’m not a fan of Laura Schlessinger, but her book “Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives” is worth checking out. (She wrote one for men, too.)😞
Wait for him to leave. Put all his shit in a box. Place it outside. Lock the door. Block his contacts. Call the cops if he tries to break in.

Or if you prefer a civil method... Just say you wanna break up. You'll love again. Trust me
carpediem · 61-69, M
Your expectations and his are not quite on the same page. Before you allow this to tear you and your relationship apart, have a discussion about the future. Then make your choices.

Just leave and find someone better period. Life is too short for lousy man and you will never be 25 again. Don't hang on to that promise in the beginning...its like air poof and gone
SW-User
I suggest you force yourself to let go. Build up anger inside you if you must, instead of hope. Things wont get better and hes a pos.
Northwest · M
I’m trapped and have no idea how to get out.

Why do you believe you're trapped? Do you have kids? Are you married? Are you financially dependent on him? Are there are circumstances that make you dependent on him?
Raine · F
You will have a lifetime of hell if you stay with him. Some people have to carry on this way to give themselves a weird sense of confidence, and destroy the confidence of others. You are young and can start again.
So... sit him down and talk through it, without getting angry. Effective communication can solve most relationship problems if you are both prepared to put the work into it. 🤷‍♀️
DunningKruger · 61-69, M
Get out. Get away from this guy as fast as you can, anyway you can. Put aside any feelings you have for him and understand that he doesn't care about you. He's just using you.
Our they platonic conversations?

It doesn’t sound like your happy together. Can’t you go back home?
Earthwrap · 41-45, M
Trapped is being in a North Korean prison.
SW-User
Dump his ass. Get a vibrator.
ViciDraco · 36-40, M
Sounds like you either need to embrace that he is going to be seeing other women or cut things off here and find someone else who wants the style of relationship you are seeking.

I'd lean towards cutting out. A polyamorous person who loves and cares about their partner is going to be willing to spend the time to understand and communicate with them. This is a guy who neglects you until he wants something and is running around behind your back. That makes him trash. I can't make you take the garbage to the curb, but your home is going to stink if you don't.
He’s the wrong one. Seriously, work on loving yourself and you won’t accept that type of treatment.
TheArbitrator · 36-40, M
99% of these women on here who are telling you to leave have probably discovered their own boyfriends messaging other women at some point, or probably oblivious to the facts. You caught him messaging another woman; okay, I understand your concern, but why is everyone here so ready to condemn this guy? 🤣 What did he say to the other woman?
ozgirl512 · 26-30, F
@TheArbitrator you seem to be overlooking his reaction....
TheArbitrator · 36-40, M
@ozgirl512 I'm not overlooking his reaction but we don't have all the facts. What did he say to the other woman? Did he say something inappropriate? And why was she snooping through his phone to begin with? I'm not going to condemn someone or take sides without all the facts.
I suggested she move out because of how unhappy she seems. Even if he hasn’t cheated or crossed a line, she seems unhappy. How long is she going to stay this way. She’s putting herself in limbo. @TheArbitrator
