A , anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and I have been together for over three years. We have been living together for about 6 months and have a five month old son. I also have a 6yr old daughter from a previous relationship and recently my boyfriend's ex, who is married to one his friends and has two children of her own, has been texting my boyfriend.

I found out and although there has apparently only been text once in a while, I feel betrayed. He has told her he now wants nothing more to do with her as he doesn't think it's right. but I feel betrayed and don't know how I will ever trust him again.

How can I get over this for the sake of my family and move on from it?

Hey, I have been through the same thing several times. I know how hard it can be and how tempting it is to pick up his phone and look at the texts in his in box and out box but it sounds like he is feeling bad and wants her to leave him alone so that is a but plus. also always remind yourself this... if he wanted to be with her, he'd be with her, but he chose you and is still with you and that is all you need to trust again.

Hi there. I think you already know the answer. She is his ex as in past and there is the answer. It sounds like you have a touch of the green eyed monster and you need to deal with it and stop letting it get at you so much.

You have been together for 3 years now; doesn`t that tell you something? You also have a baby together. Mothers who have just recently had a baby can sometimes feel a sense of insecurity afterwards. It isn`t uncommon but you really do need to leave the past where it belongs, which is in the past.

I hope this helps. Thank you and take care.
