Is this an offense that I should easily forgive, or do I have a right to be upset?

Asked by dazedandconfused (545points) March 17th, 2010

Last week, when trying to sign into my email account on my boyfriend’s computer, it was already logged in. Before I noticed that it wasn’t mine, I saw emails about “Your craigslist ad looking for a dancer…” Curious, I clicked on them. Only to find emails responding to an ad that he had posted pretending to have a club and looking for strippers. He had asked for pictures to be attached… Not just face shots… Disgusted, I threw a fit. What made it worse was that he responded to the emails with an alias name (Jim) and played right along, pretending that he did have a club and asking for other pictures, basically. I wanted to break up with him right then and there. I don’t deserve that.
But, I didn’t. I basically said that I would eventually get over it, but that in the meantime, I don’t exactly trust him. Tonight, he gets in this huge fight with me about how I basically overreacted and that I caused so much drama and fighting that weekend. It was basically MY fault that we fought because I didn’t forgive him properly/fast enough. Apparently a two day turnaround isn’t good enough. My friends told me to dump him.
Also, he swore to me that it wasn’t his idea. Then I find out that it was. He says that he must have forgotten the details. I did forgive him but do not completely trust him still. I haven’t brought it up in a week, and then we were fighting and he brings it up as though it’s my fault.
Am I wrong to be upset about this?

Please, no personal attacks, just honest opinions.
