Birthday Blues or Relationship Red Flags?

My girlfriend's birthday was on December 17th, and I was out of town for work, so I sent her a gift and apologized for my absence. Today, I've just learned she spent her special day at a cafe with an office colleague – just the two of them. This revelation comes after a period of significant ups and downs between us, and I even caught her lying to me a few weeks back. Now, this solo birthday outing with another guy has me questioning everything. Is this a clear sign of infidelity, or is there still scope to talk through these trust issues? Navigating modern relationships can be incredibly complex, and I'm at a crossroads. What do you think about these red flags? #TrustIssues #DatingAdvice #RelationshipGoals #CommunicationIsKey #BirthdayDrama
