Default Weed or not?

I'm fairly new to gardening and after clearing my borders last year,
they are now full of this plant. It's quite pretty but if it's a weed I
need to get rid. Thanks in advance.

No it's not a "weed"/native plant as such.
It's related to geraniums and used as a ground cover plant (to
supressother plants). Very invasive.
But if you don't want it, by definitionit is a weed.
