Is this cheating if they say it's just friends?
So I found out my partner’s been talking to their ex for months. Like, daily texts and voice calls, even late at night. When I asked, they said it’s just friendship, that they’re just ‘catching up’ and ‘clearing the air.’ But they never told me. I had to find out from a cousin who saw their Instagram DMs. We’re not married yet, but we’re engaged and living together — which, you know, is already a big deal with my family. My lola keeps asking when we’ll have the church blessing, and I feel so stupid now. Like, how can I face them if he’s still tied to someone else? He says nothing physical happened, but it still feels like a lie. He even called me insecure for being upset. But hay naku, why hide it then? We go to Mass every Sunday, and I keep thinking — if it was innocent, why not just tell me? I don’t want to be that strict girlfriend, but it’s like he’s giving her pieces he promised to me. What do I even do?
