So long story short, I was with my mum earlier today and left the room to get something. When I came back, I noticed she was on Tinder on her phone. It was definitely Tinder, I recognised the message layout straight away.
I did ask her after a short pause if she was on Tinder and she became all weird and twitchy and was denying it a lot. “Tinder? Why would I be on Tinder? I’m not on it.” etc. and acting all flustered.
And why would she be on Tinder? She has a partner of TWO YEARS and I thought they were happy together. Why would she cheat? It doesn’t even seem like something she would do.
So obviously I’m extremely conflicted right now about what to do, because on the one hand- it’s my mother and I don’t want to ruin our relationship by getting involved- but on the other hand she’s possibly cheating.
Any advice on how to navigate this?
TL;DR: I think I caught my mum using Tinder today. She has a partner of 2 years, so I have no idea why she’d be using a dating app. What do I do?

EDIT: Just want to make it clear that I do not have any plans to tell her partner. I’ve never met him or spoken to him properly and I have no idea how I’d even tell him. It would also completely destroy my relationship with my mother. I’m just looking for advice in general because I feel really weird and guilty right now and it’s weighing on my mind a lot.

Also I never meant to purposely involve myself in my mother’s business or pry. I didn’t even mean to see her phone when I came back in the room, I didn’t expect it at all.
