Please move on and save your energy to completely heal. You can't control what he does or who he does it to. Your Ex ways will not change and he will show signs and behaviors to the new girlfriend. Move on with your life and don't stay stuck in his World.  

Thanks Gwendolyn_c I completely appreciate and agree with you. The one thing stuck in my mind is the quote “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”. I know it is not my life he’s messing up now but he’s a “master” ( - his own words he used in marriage counselling) manipulator. Very good at hiding his double life, it took me 7 years though I was only 20 when I met him and he was 8 years older. Hopefully this lady will cop on to him way faster than I did. All I can do is send love & light x

I posted before but basically
1. First found Grindr on ex husband phone while “celebrating” 2nd wedding anniversary at the same hotel feb 2020 after we’d gone sale agreed on new home. He got super aggressive and we had an enormous fight emotionally and physically. I ended up on the ground with my finger throbbing and swollen with him screaming at me. I found a counsellor and started confiding in close friends and family. He threatened suicide throughout if I left him, complete manipulator and he’s actually a guidance counsellor in an all boys school which freaked the F**k out of me!

2. Huge turmoil and lots of disruption, sold house, bought a house that needed total renovations, covid happened, moved in with in-laws temporarily (torture while I was trying to deal with his denying being Bi/Gay despite using Grindr).

3. After moving into the new house he had logged into the smart tv. I found out how to see all apps downloaded deleted etc uncovered the fact he’d been using gay sites since at-least 2013, we met December 2014. Went to marriage counselling - he disclosed he was abused by another child and said this is why he behaves how he does but swore he would stop and finally be faithful.

4. His behaviour only got worse, I seen a solicitor and initiated divorce. I moved out in April 2021. Officially divorce November 2022 but he still is financially abusive to this day,  he won’t reply to the credit union from my job to have himself removed from our old joint account. I will have to go the legal route which he knows will cost me more money.

5. He’s got a whole smear campaign with his extremely religious catholic flying monkey parents who actually met in church choir. His family don’t acknowledge that he’s bi/ gay or that he cheated on me with men for years but instead they are saying I was abusive and have a cocaine addiction - all nonsense.

6. I finally after 7 years with him, understood he is a narcissist and although he put me through hel

Support » Found his Grindr but he denies being Gay/Bi… » October 19, 2021 12:05 pm

I found his Grindr acc and he lost it, got really aggressive and crossed the line physically. He denied being gay/bi or any interest in men romantically/ sexually, even though he has used Grindr and other apps like Jackd/scruff/hornet etc.. for years.
After I said I was leaving he said he was sexually assaulted by a slightly older male child when he was very young. He said it was all about control for him but he used it days before our wedding and as soon as he could after, put pressure on me to have children, let his family cross boundaries and just became so
Cold. He always performed in the bedroom which has me even more confused. I said I want a divorce and he’s been so nasty since and spreading lies. I’m seeing a therapist and working through understanding narcissism and how/ why I ended up in a marriage where I was being used as a “beard”..
I’m struggling and don’t want to out him, that’s his business but he’s lied and turned very viscous - like a stranger after he ruined our marriage.
Help me please!
