New boyfriend - holiday with ex?
Comments

A 13 year member of the forum. I did ask if they were trolling as i too thought possibly fake, but apparently not!If your friend is adamant that she's faithful, why is he posting on a public forum?
Is this his normal style of writing?
e.g. 'proper puzzled' 'proper ****** off'Been with the new gf about 6 to 7 weeks now. Next week she goes on holiday for a week with a male friend shes known about 5 years. It was booked before we even knew one another, can’t help but wonder when she’s there.
She isn’t shagging him, they were together 3 years ago for 3 years and had a house together and remained friends. Back in feb they both wanted a holiday but no one to go with so booked this one together, I didn't meet her until may0 -

Ok, suspending disbelief then....
I do think it highly likely the gf is unfaithful.
However, even if she isn't, she doesn't sound a very nice person if she's spending a holiday with a 'friend' and texting negative things about 'said' friend, behind his back.
However, the OP doesn't sound ideal either. The post indicates a level of immaturity and vulgarity that I think would be off putting to most 'nice' women.
Given this, it's possible that should the OP end the relationship, he maybe unable to attract anyone who's an improvement.
My advice therefore is that the OP continues the relationship, but ensures he regularly checks his gf's phone, follows her around Birmingham, and periodically accuses her of being unfaithful.
Every month or so, they should split up, have several public rows, malign each other on fb, and the gf should threaten to get an injunction.
They should then reconcile and start trying for a baby.
Every now and then either one should, apropos of nothing, change their fb status to single, leaving the other to ask on forums why strangers think this might be.
All communication should be via fb, giving all mutual acquaintances the opportunity to weigh in and to insult both parties.
And of course, the OP should keep the forums updated throughout.

Hi,
once knew a girl who had been in the army, they called it 'the trooping of the colour'.0 -

If the guy really was an ex why not introduce them straight away?
Why hold hands? Why lie about who he was in the first place?
Sorry, but if anyone tried that with me they wouldn't be with me as the first lie would've been the last.It's better to regret something I did do than to regret something that I didn’t. :EasterBun0 -
Holding hands would be a red flag.
i'm friends with one of my exes and that would never ever happen.I'd also highly unlikely go on a holiday with just the two of us (especially as we both have partners and he has a kid!). I mean i plan to have a camping trip with my friend and his gf, but thats strictly just as friends and everyone knows the boundaries (and his gf is a good friend to me too).This is a system account and does not represent a real person.
