Anonymous has been with her partner for four years and things were fine until she realised that her partner had a drinking problem and spent a lot of time with her friends partying. 

She brought this up often with her partner but her partner would respond by accusing anonymous of being controlling and not wanting her to have a good time. 

Communication remains a big problem in their relationship as they don’t seem to see eye to eye.

Ask a Man 22 July '25: 'Can I make it work with a partner that's an alcoholic?'

Anonymous started dating her partner about three years ago and says her partner cheated on her, with his ex, early on in their relationship but they overcame this and moved on with their relationship. 

She recently found texts on his phone to his friend where he was sharing with his friend about meeting up with another girl. 

She confronted him about this and he said it’s not something that actually happened or that he went through with, he was just trying to impress his friends, who apparently thrive on that kind of behaviour. 

She’s thinking of breaking up with him, but is not sure if thats the right choice.

Ask A Man 15 May '26: 'She married the man she claimed was her father.'

Anonymous has been with her partner for about 5 months now, they are both in their 30s, they have one child each, she lives with her child and he lives at his family home with his parents. 

He often visits her place on weekends when they are both free and while this arrangement initially worked she feels like he’s become a major cost to her pocket. She brought this up and ask him to contribute a little more to her household but he didn’t like her request and it has resulted in him breaking up with her.
