Oloni, my boyfriends phone broke so I gave him my old iphone 6 to use temporarily until he gets a new one. Then he was using it in front of me and i saw he had Tinder downloaded onto the phone i gave him. I asked him why he had it and he said he didn’t remember downloading it and was adamant about it and then deleted it instantly without opening the app. I was in a bad mood for the rest of the day and he belittled my feelings saying “Are you seriously upset of tinder , are you that insecure”. Eventually I just shoved it to the back of my mind, he kept the phone and changed the password. Oloni it’s still on my mind everyday especially when i’m not with him i’m wondering if he just re downloaded it. He also has a new number saved as “P7” who keeps contacting him and he claims it’s his mother’s new number but i struggle to believe that now. Oloni am I being paranoid, do I confront him further, do you think he’s lying to me? Please advice me on what to do I’m so upset

Hey darling, thank you so much for writing in! You did and extremely nice thing, by lending him your phone, but his time is up. He’s disrespecting your kindness. He’s gas-lighting you. Now gas-lighting is a form of manipulation, it’s done when someone causes you to doubt your own sanity. So when he was pretending that the holy ghost downloaded Tinder on to the phone you lent him, then proceeded to ask if you were ‘that insecure’ after acting like he didn’t know how it got there.. he was was being manipulative.
You’re not paranoid, you have every reason to have this at the back of your mind. Bring it up with him and do NOT allow him to toy with your mind and get your phone back.

Hey Oloni long time fan here, love what you’re doing!! This is a quick one. I’m currently talking to one guy he’s nice and all but wants to take everything slowwww. Now I’m a grown woman with needs. There’s this other guy I’ve fancied for a while we used to have casual sex but we became distant after a not talking for a while. We recently followed each other on socials, he doesn’t really view my snaps and we chat once in a while. The thing is he gave me some good ass sex lol! Should I make a move & try rekindle the sex flames or wait for this other guy to come around or do both 😉 lol

Hi Oloni,my best friend and I have been having sex for years and literally no one knows apart from us two, even at times we’ve both been in a relationship we would still continue. His girlfriend isn’t very fond of me but I truly don’t care, but I’ve met someone who I’ve considered potential and he’s very serious, I feel like before me and him get serious I really want to tell him the truth about everything and also end my sexual relationship with my best friend. What advice could you give me

Do you really need me to tell you what to do…
Hi Oloni, after the death of my brother I was in a bad place and in hindsight blamed my relationship with my boyfriend. I cheated on him with an older guy who in hindsight probably exploited my vulnerability. I told my boyfriend and he ended it. I really want to get back with him but he says he can forgive me but can’t be in a relationship with me again. We are still officially living together and are in the process of moving out. Although hes staying at a friends house he still wants to be friends. He asks how I’m doing often and still attempts to help me make important decisions. Once I’ve moved out should I try the no contact rule? Do I have right to even though I cheated? What should I do?

Hey love! I’m so sorry to hear about what happened to your brother and what you’ve been going through. Sometimes situations that we’re going through influence some bad decisions, but life is all about moving forward and learning. Your ex seems to be understanding, but there’d be nothing wrong if you decided to do the no contact rule. If you feel as though the NC rule will help you move on, then why not? If friendship isn’t what you’re after you can respectfully let him know, then focus on yourself.

Huge dilemma. I’ve been with my boyfriend for 10 years I recently found out he cheated on me on two occasions during our relationship. When I found out he begged me not to leave him and we have been going to counselling to try and work on things as we have a child together and live together. He said he cheated as he saw it as a sort of escapism since this has all come out we haven’t slept together because I can’t get the thought of him sleeping with someone else out of my head. The first thing I think about when I wake up is him giving oral sex and sleeping with another female and how naiive I was to not know! I’m unsure what to do I know things will never be the same again

Hey darling, thanks for writing in! I think that the fact that you’re both seeking some counselling is a VERY good step. Being cheated on is never easy, and it doesn’t make you naive as you truly trusted him.
Waking up and with those reminders clearly shows how difficult you’re finding everything. Have you spoken about this with him and have you informed your counsellor? Because it’s very important. This might be a sign that, you need a fair amount of time to yourself to get through things, especially because you live together.. just a bit of space.
If you’re 100% sure you know YOU want to make it work, then be patient and continue seeing your counsellor to see how things work out.
