What does this mean: My husband's Twitter Account is followed by 6 dating sites
I'm looking for insight here, if anybody can help

My husband has just turned 48. He's been fired a few times in the past few years because of the crappy economy, not because of his performance

I have tried my best to be supportive and helpful, and helped find him his last job, but money was tight and I know he felt embarrassed and let down

However, now he is getting nasty and cranky

He hardly talks at dinner, is always checking his cell phone and ipad, and reading twitter...so I checked his twitter account, and it's perplexing

He's following women who seem to be total c*nts or call girls...lots of people who laugh about being drunks and drugged up

I love humor, dark humor, sexy humor...but I can't even find anything fun or witty in what they say.

Now I just noticed there are 4 or 5 dating sites following him, and it isn't temporary.

Why would a dating site or matchmaker be following someone's twitter account?

He tells me it is just accidental, but he only has 50 followers, and these dating sites and matchmakers been following him for a few months now

in addition, he is following women like this:

twitter.com/Kuntspeak

twitter.com/yourcatastrophy

twitter.com/Jazzzzzmina

twitter.com/BristolSweets

twitter.com/SassyMcMelons

but at home, he has not been interested in sex for a long time. That began about the time he lost his job the second time

These days I usually have to initiate

and no, I have not let myself go, I'm not a lazy bitch, I look at least 10 years younger than my age, and men often flirt with me

I've been lurking on this site long enough to know I'll get slammed and insulted by men with issues, but I am seriously hoping someone can give me some insight

I am trying my best to be sympathetic to someone I know must be going through a difficult situation, piled on top of normal mid life crises issues

He was always the nicest stand up guy, never nasty, never rude, always polite to people...I don't understand the change

I just want to understand what I am dealing with and if someone has ever been in this situation

thank you

I have asked him outright if he is seeing someone

he says no

the strange thing is, he is not following any dating sites...just the sluts...but the dating sites are following HIM

isn't that weird?

now he wants to Friday nights for his own...to go "carousing" as he calls it

he says all men get a night to go carousing

we've been married for 20 years, and up until now he would come home on Friday, we would go out, make plans

now he won't even respond to my phone calls while he's out on his nights, nor texts

He's cheating it's obvious. you could follow him on his nights out..but would just find out your being cheated on. Leave, while you still have some pride..and don't wait for him to bring home an STD.

It does look as though your hubby is up to a bit of the auld heave-ho else where.

Personally my woman lets me go out when ever I want, with no questions asked, both parties need time apart. Let him go out carousing as he calls it.

I know I couldnt bare to spend every free minute of my time with my other half. It would drive me insane, and I know I would her also.

On the other hand, you'll maybe get closure on the whole thing, he's a bloke and as smart as we like to think we are. We always slip up somewhere along the line, so if he is banging some other chick while hes out carousing im sure you'll find out.

On the other hand maybe you could find out what it is that girls like SassyMcMelons have that turn him on?

doesn't have to mean he is cheating. When I signed up for twitter I had several dating sites follow me and I in no way am interested in dating anyone, I'm female, married. Anyone can follow you on twitter. I keep getting emails from eharmony and match.com and I have no idea how they got my email in the first place.

I hate to be naive, but why?

do they make money like this? do they get clients?

wtf?

unless I had seen them on my husband's twitter feed, I would never have known there were people like this out there....

Get out while you still can.

BTW: about twitter.com/SassyMcMelons...

That's a good one, laughed for 10 minutes at that, but the one that really killed me was twitter.com/Kuntspeak...

My ribs hurt from laughing at that one!!!

Seriously though, if he's sitting up all night beating off to tweets, you need to pack your bag and shag ass as fast as you can, especially if he wants nothing to do with you and is nasty and cranky like you said.

Get out now. If you have kids, take them with you.

On twitter anyone can follow anyone,unless block followers of your account. Is it possible that your husband just doesn't take too much notice to who follows him? Troll accounts, like those you listed will follow everyone and anyone. A mildly smart person would not use his or her main account to cheat, sounds like you, imo, have nothing to worry about, my 2 cents.pigchef

I really do not want to leave..I'm the kind who always thought I would stay married, not quit if it got difficult

I know people go through phases...men go through them too, and I know mid-life is a tough time for a guy, especially if he feels short on money and under pressure at work

I'm just trying to gauge what is real, what is temporary

the disrespect, especially in front of friends, however, is really getting to me. It's reached the point that most friends say they don't like the way he treats me....and the few times I've mentioned it, he doesn't care. He just says

"fine, then I won't see them anymore if they don't like the way I am..."

I have been spamed by adult dating sites on twitter, they just start following you idk why. Or just all sorts of random spam/fake accounts on twitter.

I wouldn't worry too much. Worst case he's probably looking at half naked pics of Twitter sluts and maybe attempting to flirt.

 Quoting: DallasDog


He feels guilty for his inability to live up to the promises he made himself about how he was going to take care of you. He feels like a failure. He is probably trying to push you away so that you do not have to see him being a failure and so that he will no longer feel the guilt of being unable to provide. If, as you say, you have had a good marriage thus far, then if he suddenly finds himself gainfully and successfully employed, this nasty behavior will stop. This "fine, then I won't see them anymore if they don't like the way I am..." is pure defensiveness. You need to find some way to break through his defensiveness and talk to him and let him know that he does not need this guilt. That you are in it together, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health. I know nothing about him so I have no idea how you will break through his defensiveness and get him to talk.

Well OP I was initially going to tell you that he is probably addicted to porn of ALL types. IPAD to watch and TWITTER to read. But now he wants to run around on Friday nights? If he hasn't cheated already, he is looking to.

I would definitely follow him. Get the proof (pictures) and then kick him out. You are the bread winner so you can't take him to the cleaners financially but you will at least have the proof that he is the one that SCREWED up. He may think twice about getting your 401k or other assets that you may have once he knows you have the proof.

Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.

Yeah I was going to say, it's not his fault that someone is following him especially some spam/commercial accounts.. he could go back through and take the time to block them but after so many followers it becomes annoying to do manually.

He does have a choice who he follows though, obviously.
