love bombing, age gap, manipulation. all red flags. Age gaps like this aren't much of a big deal once both people are post college (22-25 age range), but when one is as young as you, it's a problem.
he’s now “dating” a girl he met on hinge lol when I tell him he’s not ready he gets defensive & says that he doesn’t need me to tell him when he’s healed & act like his mom. mind you this girl has also already met his daughter & they’ve been dating for maybe a month at the most.
This feels right in my soul. Thank you SO much for sharing your wisdom and kindness!??

Cut and run.
The next conversation should be you dumping him tbh.
I know that may be scary but you’ll be grateful you moved on sooner than later.
This is who he is. If you aren’t happy, break up. It was all a show. This will destroy your self esteem if you stay.

So he had a feeling you were cheating, which then he decided to act on it and found out you were, in fact, cheating even if it was emotional.
Yea, he needs to break up with you.
