A woman has questioned if she should break up with her boyfriend after her friend discovered him on an dating app.
The furious woman took to British parenting platform Mumsnet and explained her partner of nearly a year liked another woman’s profile on a dating app – not knowing it was her friend.
Her friend sent her a screenshot of her boyfriend’s dating profile and at first she tried to give him the benefit of doubt in case it was an old profile, but it did show he’d been ‘recently active.’
She asked Mumsnet users to help her end the relationship in a ‘classy’ way because she doesn’t want to seem ‘hysterical.’
Many rushed to the comments with their own thoughts, with some suggesting she shouldn’t mention the dating site and say she’s dumping him because he’s bad in bed.

The post read: ‘In a relationship with a man for 11 months, had the exclusive chat. See each other regularly, relationship seemed good.
‘My friend has just sent me a screenshot of him on a dating site… so at first I tried to look at it as positively as can be …maybe it’s an old profile… but no he likes her profile and he has recently been active.
‘I am so hurt and gutted but I’m happy to say my anger has taken over! We were meant to see each other for the whole weekend this weekend coming all planned, dinner booked, swimming, walks a lunch, cinema… obviously now i’m not going…
‘Any advice on what I should message, I don’t feel he is owed the dignified face to face end it… seriously what an absolute b******!!!
She continued: ‘I don’t want to be hysterical in my message, classy would be good but also let him know what I have been shown! I’m so glad he has never met this friend!’
People offered various ways to dump him in the comments with some suggesting to lead him to doubt his ‘sexual prowess.’

People offered various ways to dump him in the comments with some suggesting to lead him to doubt his ‘sexual prowess’
One person said: ‘I would keep it short and sweet… ‘Listen, I was going to ghost you, but realised that would be unkind. I have to tell you the truth about why this isn’t working for me. Turns out size really DOES matter.’
Someone else chimed in with: ‘Combine the suggestions about shit sex life and the dating site. Bob you can see from this screenshot that I now know what you’ve been up to.
‘Obviously it’s a blow that someone I trusted could be so pathetically dishonest, but I’ve got to say it’s actually a relief as it was getting boring faking all those orgasms.’
A fourth said: ‘Ooo another good option.. Yes I’d go for this. Not mention the dating site or anything. Just the text. It’s not me, it’s you. You can’t satisfy me etc as above. Leading him to doubt his sexual prowess. Amazing.’
Others suggested she should mess with his head and set up fake profiles to match with him, while some said she should just ‘ghost him’.
One person wrote: ‘Oh I’d definitely keep him hanging. Set up a few fake profiles, like his profile or whatever

‘As a previous poster mentioned, there was one on here a while back who did this, flirted with him, arranged to meet, never showed up etc etc.’
Another said: ‘What would bug him most is if you just never wrote to him again. You don’t even have to block him, just never ever replied to him.
‘If you block him he’ll know that he’s been rumbled if you say something nasty he’ll be full of justifications.
‘I would either write saying that you weren’t well suited and you want to end the relationship or I would just completely ignore him.’
Meanwhile another wrote: ‘He doesn’t deserve any explanation , photo or anything else. If no energy for catfish humiliation, just ghost him.’
