There is a reason he is looking, and you may never know the truth---fact is many guys will say the are only "curious," just looking (or so they say), or "forgot." YEAH RIGHT.

Ok, you go on his computer and his email just happens to pop up and you read his mail annd see that he has applied to several, not one, online dating and cassifieds. Something is wrong. Now one check out to see what bogus people setup these services of need, but several, not acceptable. Has there been a change of attitude towards you before and after this find that you have notice but pushed aside. He is searching for an option. You need to have a talk with him plus have the proof( like names of the web sites and classifieds he has been on. Because if you two make up and move on, you will be shut out of his computer access from there on. Trust will be still an issue with you. Take the time communicate to him how you feel and let him express himself too. There is a need for reconnection to get back on track. But if for any reason you are still feeling something is not right then back off or cut your loses. It is about your happiness too.

I've never understood what the "confrontation" is all about. Tell him why if you want, but leave. Just leave.

I would first question myself if I wanted this guy, because it looks like he is looking elsewhere. He may just be trying to see if there is anything better out there. Because if you confront him he is either going to answer yes or no. If he says yes, tell him it has been fun, and then get out of there. If he says no then he is lying and you are hooking up with a liar. So if you want to associate yourself with a liar that is up to you and you will be sorry. If you don't confront him then you will accept the fact that he has other women on his mind. I always like to talk things out with someone so I know where I stand.

Why? It's not like you don't already know the truth! Unless you plan on staying with the looser then there is no reason to confront the issue but instead plan your exit from this relationship.

No, don't confront him yet. You now know what his intentions are. Your boyfriend is either trying to find an exit strategy or checking out his options. Now, plan your plan your exit and don't accept any excuses. Next time, he'll be more careful and sneaky.

In my experience, some women are predisposed to read more into a man's words and actions than is really there and assume he wants the same things they do without ever speaking to him about it -- sometimes even in the face of evidence which makes it clear that this is not true. However, if you and this man have specifically agreed to be exclusive, then the evidence seems to suggest that he's chosen to violate that agreement -- which means that you have every right to be angry with him and to confront him (although you should be prepared for the very great possibility that he'll try every trick in the book in an attempt to avoid taking responsibility for his behavior so that he doesn't have to change). In my opinion, it also means the agreement is null and void -- meaning that you should consider yourself at liberty to see other people since it seems evident that he no longer intends to honor the agreement.

Kdare made a good point. I also get emails from dating sites, even though I haven't been active on any of them in years. Check to see if he's been recently active on the sites or if they're just something he experimented with before he met you. But don't just take his word for it. Check out his profile on the sites before you confront him, and you should be able to tell. If you find that he has been recently active, don't listen to any excuses. Just leave. Men who are truly committed to you don't cruise dating sites.

Don't confront him but do talk about how you went to check your email and his popped up and you noticed that he was still getting emails from dating sites because he may not even look at them because some dating sites actually continue sending emails even when/if you are not active...heck, I've been with my guy nearly two years and we both still get emails from the dating sites we were on before we met and neither of us even look at them...talk to him and find out before you jump to conclusions because he may not even be looking at them or even aware that he's still getting them...:D

Oh no. Just join one of the sites and approach him that way, with a false pic of some hot 25 yr old as you, and see how deep you can draw him into your trap before you arrange a public meeting somewhere and humiliate him, then ditch him.
