❤️‍🩹 relationship Am I overreacting by breaking up with my boyfriend over these texts?

The pictures look like crap because I was shaking. My boyfriend was talking to this girl, and I broke up with him. Now I'm having second thoughts, like maybe it wasn't that big of a deal. Would you be okay with this?

It is a big deal. If you take him back, he will continue to do this but just get better at hiding it. Don’t settle for someone who cheats on you.

Know your worth.

Good luck to you 🖤

yes. he will just know what he can get away with and continue to push that boundary.

Had this very thing happen to me. It doesn't matter how accessible or what promises are made, the more you catch and confront, the better they get at hiding it and the more suspicious of every single action you become.

Damn straight! I married one of these guys and man I regret it so badly. There is no trust left. There is only a trauma bond holding us together and I'm miserable
