What would you do if you caught your SO entertaining other females? Do you think it’s something that can be worked through or would you leave and keep it moving?
Thank you everyone for your advice. I’m still undecided. It may take me some time before I figure out what I’m going to do from this point but y’all have really helped in giving me some things to think about.
I'd say it depends on how long you've been together and how much effort you're willing to put into your relationship. I saw my husband entertaining other females on his phone when we 1st got together, I decided I didn't want to walk away. We got counseling and were able to move past it. Now years later we're married with 2 children. We still go to counseling, not for that issue, but just because relationships take work and that's our time to sit with each other and make sure we remain on the same page.
@trippsmommy214 I feel like most things can be worked through, tbh. You did indicate that it was females, plural, so that makes me not so sure. If it was flirting with a girl, talk it out, set expectations IF he is remorseful. Obviously if he didn't see a problem with his actions, then he won't change. If this was numerous girls, any time you aren't around etc then I'd have to end it. I feel like people are too quick to throw in the towel when things get rough. You know him best, you are the best judge with what to do next.
You can either leave or forgive him and seek counseling. If you forgive him you will go down a very hard path. It’s easy to say I forgive you but to actually forgive and forget is really hard. You will both have to put in a lot of work and he will have to put up with you having no trust in him for a long time. I’m sorry you’re going thru this. I really wish you guys the best with whatever decision you make.
@squishysquashy, honestly... I am. Every moment I feel like I’m having a different emotion. One moment I’m mad the next I’m sad, one moment I feel like maybe we can get counseling and work it out or something and the next moment I hate him. I don’t know what to do. I’m super confused. I did leave but a part of me wishes I didn’t. Idk 😐
