Default Broken Hearted

Just recently, I was informed that my partner was fooling around but I haven't investigated yet. Upon hearing this news, my heart almost turn into pieces. I never realized that my partner can hurt me this way. I don't know if it's right to make confrontations when I haven't even seen any proof about this. What should I do now?

You could ask your partner about it. Since you don't have any proof, just be assertive, but not aggressive. How did you find out your partner was fooling around? If it was from someone else, you could start with, "So and so told me this. Is it true?" I would suggest not being immediately aggressive especially since you don't have any proof.

Sorry to hear about this, it must be devastating. Are you sure the information is correct? First, I would try to verify it and get proof, then confront your partner. Things like that need to be dealt with, sweeping under the rug will not work long-term.

I think it would be advisable to have a very open conversation with your partner without losing control of the situation. It is easy to assume things or to believe in what others have to say; however, it's always best to confront the person and give them a chance to tell their side of the story.

I agree with ButterflyEs. It's best to try to talk things through, let him explain himself while trying to keep your cool and go from there.

Keep your cool. As ButterflyEs said, it is best to talk it out with him. He may deny it, but you have to let him know what you know. Honesty is the best policy in a relationship.

First, you need to measure whether the one who told you that information is reliable or not. Try to talk to him at first, but don't get angry with him and if he denies it, believe him, but be cautious and try to look for evidence.

I feel the same as many of the other members have said, ie to have an open conversation with your partner without being hyper. Just speak to him what you have heard about and how badly you were hurt. Give him a chance to explain his part, be patient to hear and understand.
