boyfriend talking to other girls..

to make a rather long story short... this is the 3rd time over the last year that I’ve caught my SO talking to some girl inappropriately on his phone (via text or snapchat or whatever). All 3 here are different girls, never the same girl. The 2nd girl he actually physically cheated on me with. She thought they were dating, like enough so that she put it on Facebook, because he told her that I was just a roommate.

I stayed with him after he cheated because I believe cheating doesn’t have to be a deal breaker (We have friends who are happily married with two kids and they both cheated on each other at some point in their relationship. We talked to them a lot for advice. They suggested counseling, and I want to try that but right now we just can’t afford that). And I know I love him way more then I could ever hate him for doing it.

We have lived together basically our entire relationship. We just moved to a new place in a new town last month. He has a fantastic job, and next week I am (finally) going to start babysitting to help make money as well so we don’t have to put our 2 year old in expensive daycare (We are raising his daughter together. She knows me as her Mom. She has zero relationship with her bio-mom).

I just don’t know how to feel or what to think at this point. I think counselling would be very helpful to us, but like I said, right now we just cant afford that.
