We’re both in our early twenties. I’ve been talking to this guy since July and we both really like each other and talk constantly and see each other multiple times a week. I know he’s told some of his friends about me. Him and his ex girlfriend have a toddler together. He told me he had moved out of his parents and lived on his own for 3 months. When we first started messaging when he was sending me snapchats I noticed him on a bed that a girl would only have and had girly bedding. I never brought this up as I didn’t want to accuse him of anything. He moved out of that house and back home a month ago and he has recently got a new place. I decided to finally ask him about this a few days ago. He was completely certain that he lived on his own and not with ex and he said he got the bed for free. He told me they broke up at the beginning of the year, but I had found her TikTok and I saw videos of her implying they were together in April I asked him about this and he said we definitely broke up at the beginning of year. I also saw he heart reacted her Facebook profile pic at the beginning of July before we met but that minor not mean anything. He then told me that she constantly accused him of cheating and saying his friends were bad people and trying to turn people against them. Also just to add he hasn’t followed her on any social media the whole time we have been messaging. I want to believe him as he said he really values honesty and thinks he’s really important. What do people make of this advice please?
All of that sounds pretty unremarkable and I wouldn't worry about it. It's all historical, it happened before you met him.
Worst case scenario, he wants you to feel like he's over her and that he's not moving straight on from her (which would be reasonable). If you like the person that he is then I'd take him at face value.
