I am a 23-year-old college graduate with a 5-year-old daughter and I have been dating Mr. X for 4 years. After graduating together, Mr. X and I decided to move to another state because it was something he always wanted to do, and I agreed because there were more job opportunities there. Not long after moving, things got really bad between us. Keep in mind, we lived together while we finished undergrad so living together was never an issue.
So, once things got bad, meaning he was acting indifferent towards me, I became a detective. I instantly suspected he was seeing someone else, but he whole-heartedly denied it and asked when he would have time because all he does is go to work and come home. I tried to let it go but couldn’t. One night he didn’t come home and this was very unsettling to me. One day, I was going through his phone and I saw a number he called repeatedly. I called and asked this young lady if she knew Mr. X and she said, ‘Yes, that’s my boyfriend!’ My heart broke instantly.
