I tricked my boyfriend on facebook!

I know it sounds bad but I was reading a magazine yesterday about a girl who tricked her boyfriend using myspace to check if he was cheating or not. I know you're all probably gonna burn me at the stake for this but oh well. I'd had reservations beforehand that he flirted with other girls as one person told me but he denied it and after all I had no proof. To be honest, I just thought that it would be funny and he would just ignore her! So I set up a facebook account and made it realistic and everything and began chatting to him. He was instantly like ''jesus you're way out of my league'' and was commenting on how good looking she was (fair enough). For some reason later on he started slagging me off to her and moaning about how much money it costs him to come see me (long distance relationship) and it made me sound so bad like I didn't care that he was spending his money on getting up here. Later on he told her that he thought she was so much more pretty than his girlfriend. As it persued I asked him to meet her and he said that he probably would and if he saw her in the pub he would chat her up.

Sorry for the long winded post but I needed to get it out, was I bad for tricking him? I just wondered that if he was like this just over the internet with people he didn't know, what's he going to be like with girls at his uni? Am I just being silly or do I have a right to be upset? Please don't be too harsh on me! Thanks :smile:

I think the fact you felt the need to check says a lot about your relationship

Clearly there is no trust in this relationship, why are you with him, if you are so uncertain that you have to check up on him everytime.

Firstly, your boyfriend's an idiot. You never rant about your life to strangers on the internet. (Har har har). Secondly, please arrange for him to meet this 'girl', and have him 'accidentally' run into you moments before she's due to arrive. Gwan, it'll make him squirm. You can stay there with him and dump him for some undisclosed reason, if you want. Coupled with him being stood up by the internet girl, all in all, it'll be pretty funny.

If he finds out about this then it looks like the inevitable end of your relashionship. The internet is a powerful but awful thing. It has ruined past friendships and rattled relashionships with me many times.
I am however, glad that you did this because you were able to find out what he is really like. and i think you deserved to know.

You don't trust him, and evidently rightly so; this relationship has no future - looks like it is over to me I'm afraid.

There's no smoke without fire... suppose its a good way of finding out really! Least you've confirmed your suspicions instead of sitting worrying about it

Well he is an idiot for flirting behind your back but at the same time, it looks like you never trusted him anyway.

i think everyboy would flirt with a hottie if they were on myspace - it only becomes bad if he seriously disses the GF (as he did here) or if he is willing to take ifurther like meeting up.

Only trouble is what happens if you do try that and it turns out he isn't flirting at all, you would look a hell of an idiot after, but obviously I am in no way suggestion your relationship is bad :smile:

Slagging you off is a bit bad. But... money is a big thing at a young age!

Also, you did this because he was FLIRTING. Not CHEATING. At least he isn't cheating on you. What you exchanged was internet chatter. There is a big difference between what people say and do. No trust as said by others.
