    Font - He approached me two weeks ago that he was unhappy and wanted to either separate or try to work on things. I said i wanted to work on things and he agreed to counseling, but that same night i went through his phone and saw he called a female worker from his new job beautiful. I confronted him and he swore up and down nothing happened and I believed him.

    Font - Now two weeks later i went through his phone again because I had a gut feeling something was still up. Turns out two days after we decided to work on things, he texted this female co worker saying that we decided to separate and he had a wonderful time with her and definitely has feelings for her.

    Font - In the text before that, the female coworker said she thought she would be okay being with a married guy but changed her mind. I also saw they had a 25 minute phone call two days ago. I am so hurt and betrayed that this man i have been with for 9 years and have a child with would do this to me. Now I need help figuring out what to do. I

    Font - don't really want him knowing I went through his phone but I also want to freak out and call him out and end it. Should I just end it out of the blue and give no reason? I just dont want to look like the villain when its him. Any advice would be appreciated as I now have to sit here with him and act totally fine for the time being when I know hes a dirty cheating liar

    Font - ThrowRA-icyqueen OP. 2 days ago I took pictures and sent them to my mom so she can save them to her phone so I have the evidence. Do you think I should just admit I went through his phone and call him out? 588 Reply Share

    Font - virtualchoirboy · 2 days ago Husband of nearly 28 years. You want to say something to him because deep down, we all want to see their face when their secret is revealed. Understand that it will never bring you the satisfaction you think it will. Plus, hanging on to that will only slow down your healing.

    Font - Ultimately, the best thing to do is save the evidence somewhere besides just your mom, file, and have him served. You will get just as much of a reaction out of him that way by blind siding him as you would telling him in person. Plus, this way, you can start to make the appropriate plans to move forward without him and leave him in the dust like he deserves. 364 Reply Share

    Font - NITAREEDDESIGNS 1 day ago I agree. When people try to satisfy their desire to "see their face", they more often than not, get gaslit and talked into staying. The only place to be is away...the position of strength. "Indifferent". Nothing good comes from confrontation. 27 Reply Share

    Font - 4459691 2 days ago It sounds like he has been planning on leaving the marriage one way of another. You cannot make someone stay in a marriage. You just can't. He just wants out. He is lying to you and to the OW. He wants to be single. 210 Reply Share

    Font - eden1994 2 days ago As someone who has been through this... The best advice ever from an attorney was to take half the money. Open your own account, and decide how you wish to divide assets before confronting. Hire your attorney, everything beforehand. Screenshot everything. You will have to go to mediation.

    Font - The attorney/friend said why wait for a judge to allow you to your half before he moves it? Lol Funny thing.. he got to the bank 20 minutes after me! He tried to convince the bank I was a criminal! Glad those days are over! Wasting time with all of that is my biggest regret! 163 Reply Share

    Font - MarsupialMaven - 2 days ago Collect the evidence. Start checking credit card bills too. Figure out what he is spending on the affair. Financial infidelity can help you if the marriage ends. If you can afford it hiring a detective can get you lots of information. Start thinking about an exit plan and work it. Be calm and cool. Make sure

    Font - ellewitt2 2 days ago. edited 2 days ago Right now he thinks he has all the power. He's feeding both of you lines to keep you on the hook while he makes up his mind which one he wants. I can guess that's not the man you married so you need to take care of yourself first.

    Font - Good job saving evidence. Play it cool with husband and contact a lawyer. Get your ducks in a row, see what divorce looks like, and then serve him. (At work would be a fun option if you're feeling petty.) He's a cheater and manipulator. You want to

    Font - confront him and get some satisfaction but I assure you the most satisfying thing you can do is leave without a scene. Walk away with dignity because he's going to thrive on your hysterics.

    Font - You could contact his AP if you want to let her know he lied about being separated but honestly it's only worth your time to dig into that situation if she's also in a relationship (because her partner deserves to know). 4 21 Reply Share
