42-year-old man discovers that his wife of 10 years has been repeatedly going to "help out with the dogs" of a co-worker who she claims goes "out of town" a lot: 'What single man wants to spend 2 hours a day talking with a married woman with kids?'

Listen, being someone's dog sitter is an important job. Taking care of someone's dog when they are on vacation or something, when they need help, is not something to be joked about. And it's not something to lie about either. Fine, maybe we're latching onto something small, but we think that we are just upset with this wife. No matter how you look at it, what she is doing is wrong, and "suspicious" would be too kind of a word for it.

Usually, we do not support airing people's dirty laundry on the internet, but this time, we can't even be mad about it. This husband seems to baffled by his wife's behavior that him posting the story on the internet came off more like a cry for help than anything else. He genuinely didn't seem to believe that his wife of 10 years and the mother of his 2 children could do something like this to him and their family. I was "helping with the dogs while he was on vacation" was her excuse when he confronted her about it, but… how many times in a row can someone go on vacation?

Really, the biggest offense here (sort of) is using the dogs as an excuse. The dogs are innocent and should not be a part of this insanity in any capacity. Do not get them involved. They do not deserve it, and you do not deserve them.

We agree with the comments. Trust your gut. Occam's Razor - the simplest explanation is probably the right one. Now, it's just a question of how to move forward, and we are truly so sorry that you have to go through that. No one deserves to feel like this, certainly not after 10 years of marriage with 2 kids.
