Boyfriend troubles
Hi, this is very king and complex but the gist is, I've been with my partner for 5 years and 11 weeks ago we had a beautiful baby boy. We have a history of issues with him struggling with alcohol and drugs, mood swings, very impulsive behavior etc.. He would drink often and at occasions would do drugs, he always lies by the way.
Just this week I found out he made a fake *** account and sent my mother a d**k pic. I asked him to leave the home until I process this.
This is where it gets complicated. He says it wasn't anything to do with her personally it was to do with the whole "mother in law" narrative, I'm assuming porn addiction going to far maybe. My family don't understand why I'm not running for the hills and it's because it's so out of character for him to do this as he isn't a very sexual person.
Does anyone have any experience with this that can help or advise me if this sounds like something is wrong or is he just a piece of ***....
I don’t think that this is okay personally, but it’s all up to your thoughts and feelings. Yes you can vent about things to people, but at the end of the day, you make the decisions.
No explanation makes what he did okay. Out of the norm for him to do ,which I could see the struggle in your mind with that. Regardless, this is something you were able to find out about. I wouldn’t be able to focus on life or my kids when I’m constantly worried about what he could be doing. That’s me though and I’m a worry wart myself with my boyfriend who has BPD and lies, so idk it’s a tough situation you’re in.
Im sure you’ll do whatever is best for you and your kids. I feel like this is merit for couples counseling if you really love him and want things to work. Also DBT therapy for him would be a good thing to bring up. I hope for the best for you.
