Our listener went through her boyfriend’s Apple watch and believes he is cheating. She discovered some personal messages that he has been sending to his ex. Now she doesn’t know what to do.

Here’s her email:

I need your help. I have gotten myself into a very difficult situation and I need some input. First, you’ll need to know a little bit about me. I am a single mom of two kids. My son and daughter have different fathers. My sons dad is very involved and my daughters dad is not. He is an addict and that’s a story for a different day. I started dating someone back in July who also has 2 kids. Things progressed very quickly. We clicked almost instantaneously and I knew from day one that he was “my person”.

He moved into my house, my one year old started calling him “Dad”. It was never pressed on her, she simply heard his kids calling him that and she just thought that was his name. He was thrilled. It terrified me but how can you explain the situation to a one year old? & he has been such a great “father” figure to her, so I let her.

Fast forward to last week.. we have been arguing over dumb things, I guess the “new” had started to wear off. Pointless fights. Well he left his Apple Watch at home when he went to work and I found texts between him and his ex girlfriend. NOT COOL. I was devastated. He was telling her that things weren’t going well with us, crossing major lines (in my book). Well, I didn’t see the whole conversation and I felt like I still needed answers. Should I reach out to her on Facebook or just ask him about it?
