Partner (37M) is controlling yet I still want to stay.

[CoastTwoCoast]

Every day I feel deeply unhappy because I believe but don't have solid evidence that his heart is wandering. What's worse is that this woman made very close acquaintance with my daughter- my 11 year old loves her a lot.

You have all of the solid evidence “his heart is wandering”. Stop being in denial! You even said he brought this other woman to his grandmother’s house AND let her use one of your suitcases FFS!!!

Ugh. I just had to keep reading...You let this bitch he’s having an affair with get close enough to your daughter that your daughter loves her now? C’mon...Get out of the picture and find someone else. They are laughing at you on these “trips” because you are looking like a fool. Move on with your life please. It’s embarrassing.
