If he has been going on this dating site in the time that you have been seeing him, just get rid before he does something or already has. Whats the point in staying around with a person like that. Your better of being alone for the time being, than wondering what hes up to all the time, you dont need that kind of headache.

MSA agony auntHaving a profile on a dating website does not constitute as him cheating. You just need to ask him. See what his response is. A lot of times the thing that breaks a relationship is you go assuming things when it's not true. He hasn't done anything to lose your trust, right? So ask him and accept his answer.

As for replying to messages. Yes, I know it can be frustrating when you are expecting and reply and don't get one. Give him a chance, take his word for it. One time, I was texting with my boyfriend just as I was getting off work. He told me to call him. It only took me a minute to get into my car and by that time, I called and no one answered. Of course I got mad! He didn't call me back until an hour later. Said he left the house to pick up food but forgot his phone. I said really?? You had the phone in your hand texting with me! He said yea, he put it down and just left it there. Totally forgot about it. So yes, forgetfulness is a trait. Give him the benefit of the doubt!

Sincerely Yours agony auntYou don't owe him any fancy explanation. Simply state your reason and go. Your relationship is still so young, you're lucky not to have found out after a year.

You've been with him long enough that if you don't know how to bring this up to him you two are probably not meant to be. Which seems especially likely if he's cheating.

Just tell him you know he's on a dating website and you don't want to be with a cheater so you're leaving. Then leave.
