Hi Simon,
So sorry to hear about your situation. I've dipped in and out the Bonkers thread, and you've always been so helpful and seem like such a nice guy.
Glad you've seeing things more clearly now. Hope you manage to find the courage to speak to your parents. Hopefully they will surprise you with how supportive they'll be. You may even find it doesn't come as a surprise to them, as you say you're living with this guy and have a mortgage together. Happened to a friend of mine who spent years deliberating whether or not to tell his parents, only for them to say 'oh that, we knew ages ago'!!
Facebook has a lot to answer for! :mad: I must say, I feel a little twitchy myself when my OH is always on there - imagine him chatting to all his ex-girlfriends...
I hope you get it sorted out and there's not too much confrontation. I send you lots of love and luck.

I've been with my partner for over 9 years now and although things have been up and down, on the whole I thought things were going well.
I was then contacted by someone on Facebook who said you may want to check out what my partner is up to with someone else they are friends with on facebook as they have some dirty secrets.
So although I know I shouldn't have, I have accessed my partners facebook and e-mails and find that behind my back he is cheating on me with another man who is married and has two young kids and a wife in tow.
Not only that, they are planning to move in together or get themselves a shag pad - some of the things I have read in conversations between them absolutely disgusts me. At the moment, if I saw this married man I am sure I would rip his head from his body which makes me worried I'm not thinking straight.
We have a house together with a mortgage, so I am thinking I need to confront him this weekend, tell him to get out by Monday and if he doesn't, I will expose him to our friends, his family and work colleagues so they can see the true side of him. I am then planning on getting the house on the market next week to try to get it sold and try my best to move on with my life. One issue is that I am not 'out' to my parents so am worried he will use this as a threat or blackmail to me so am in a dilemma if I should now come out to my parents which I have never done in the past as my dads health has been so bad and I think his health has worsened because he didn't take news of something similiar with my brother in the past. But if I don't come out to my parents I am worried he will go round there and make things 10 times worse.
I just want to know if I'm being logical as I'm now in such a state about this that I don't know if I'm thinking straight.
Apologies for the long message and it's totally off competition chat I know but I just wanted some advice on things by people who don't know me and him (e.g. all of our friends) and can give me an outsiders perspective.
Firstly Simon sending you a big hug you must feel absolutely awful at the moment especially as you thought things were okay. :EasterBunI couldn't find a hug will a chocolate bunny do?
You are in total shock my immediate advice would be to do nothing for a day or two act normal as normal as you can, if he asks whats wrong tell him you are ill, get over the shock and then plan your next move.
Think carefully what to do next and more importantly how to do it re confronting him, telling his other mans wife & coming out to your parents (surely they've already guessed you've been with him 9 years!)
It seems the best thing to do is to sell up and move on it will be difficult for you so be strong. I don't know what one does in these cases with a shared mortgage.
Try & rest this weekend treat yourself well and confront everything in a few days with a clear head.
We're all here for you0 -
