Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12630340 So I don't think it is a case of "she won't leave him alone." He's completely in the wrong. Looking to cheat (if it's not ready ongoing) get out now.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 41936242 United States 09/15/2014 07:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My first thought is "What the hell are you doing snooping on his phone?" Mind your own business. Quoting: DanInKC The second is you're obsessive to the point of stalking her to find out she's a single woman. Crazy obsessiveness is big minus in most men's book. In general, you shouldn't be going to bed before him unless you are inviting him to come along for some whoopie. If he refuses, then you need to get better at it because apparently texting a hot chick is better than having sex with you. Now, if he's the cause of the debt, dump him/ keep him...it doesn't matter. If you're the reason and he's the cash cow, shut up about it and enjoy the ride You can touch each other...just not each other's phone! Am I right??? How I HATE technology. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 58686169 United States 09/15/2014 07:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Long story - basically a house we could not afford combined with stupid overspending (put a stop to that!) & a cycle of debt stemming from that. It was a lot of stupid mistakes, basically, and really crappy money management. We stopped accumulating debt, hunkered down, and figured out a plan 2 years ago. Now we are in a position to pay it down quickly over the next 6 years. If we really push (as we have talked about) we can do it in 3. Let's be clear here. I can glean from what little you have revealed that the stupid overspending was done by you. And is it perhaps true that the sucky situation you have trapped your husband in was caused by your irresponsibility? He probably feels bitter that you've fucked him over and that a good percentage of his check is going to pay off your debt. Really? Like what? What did she say to make you think that? It sounded more like his husband might have more to do with it. I mean, he goes off somewhere to have sext message with chicks and this wife works 2 jobs to try and pay off debt. It sucks either way. Work hard to pay off debt but too tired to do the duty for the husband... |

I just can't stand to talk to him right now, I am so angry. His solution is that I violated his privacy and so he's going to go down to Verizon & get his own phone line, separate from mine. Because THAT will clearly fix this whole problem. Then I guess he can just text away without me knowing. PS I never snooped on his phone for everyone who keeps saying that. I looked at our PHONE BILL, which is mailed to our house & itemizes our usage (texts, calls etc) by line. Once I saw this number appearing so much, I logged into our account online (which I am in charge of paying) and looked at the last few bills. Usually I don't even bother opening the bills and I just pay it online or by phone. So I wasn't doing any secret phone hacking or anything like that. Thanks you guys for giving me a little LOL! :) |

I work full time and then I have a second part time online job which can be up to 6 hours every night and on the weekends. Then come Saturday night he wants to stay up until 2 or 3 AM sitting on the patio drinking (and apparently texting) and I just can't hang. Shit maybe I need to develop a coke habit. |

Have some self-respect. CUT HIM OFF NOW. Document his texts, save the phone record you're viewing online. CALL A LAWYER TOMORROW. F HIM. Your relationship may be broken, you may not give him good head, you may be fat, I dunno---but his having an affair while still married is wrong, a treacherous betrayal. Get out. He can and SHOULD do his own thing and not answer to YOU---but he must be divorced or unmarried to do that. He signed up for marriage. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 16094033 United States 09/15/2014 08:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | How many times has he been separated from you and he would have had time to cheat on you? Has he come home later than expected and something didnt seem right/suspicious? Does he have time at work to go meet her without your knowledge? Any other times you suspect he was WITH her? If the answer is yes to any of those questions, and he officially declines marriage counseling, Nd its gone on for some time without his efforts to reconcile with you, then you should talk to a lawyer. The emotional abuse is, well, abusive. |

I could have pressed charges but my children asked me not to so i didn't. I will have to pay for this for the rest of my life. My children wear hand me downs. I have to borrow money from my family all the time and at the end of every week I have less than 5 dollars in the bank. My house would have been payed off in 4 years, I had to file for a hardship reduction and will be paying for 25 more years. I will be dead by then.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 48369909 United States 09/15/2014 10:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is something modern relationships need to learn from old timers. These lame modern relationships were there are no rules and it's okay to have opposite-sex friendships, otherwise you are "jealous" and overly controlling, it's all B.S. My ex-wife thought I was overly jealous because I wouldn't let her go 'hang out' with her male coworkers and male musicians to play music with. I told her if you want to have opposite sex friends then you bring me and our kids and involve us in the friendship. You don't just tell me to watch the kids while you go out and hang out with your male friends. This is why she divorced me just a month ago. You were right in what you said. Absolutely correct. She shouldn't be trying to recreate her teens with a husband and kids at home. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 54995942 United States 09/15/2014 10:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wow, thank you all for the advice & similar stories. We had a major conversation tonight about it. He walked in and was like, "Don't you have something to say to me?" expecting an apology from ME for "snooping." Um, I read the bill. That isn't exactly doing detective work. Supposedly she's someone he dated 15 years ago. Um ok, fine. So why are you texting her at 2 AM after I'm asleep in bed? I told him it wasn't appropriate and he hit the roof. I told him I was going to start texting my old boyfriends. He said fine, I have no problem with that. Again, whatever dude. He says they just talk about 'whatever' and says she isn't single. I'm going to ask him tomorrow if her spouse knows & what his opinion is of these late night texting festivals. Bottom line, he sees absolutely nothing wrong with this, and will continue to do it. He even reiterated to me that he's going to get his own phone so he can do whatever he wants. He basically told me that he decided our marriage was over a couple of months ago, and that his plan was to pay off all our shit and then get a divorce & move on. This entire time I had been working under the delusion - and hope - that we were working TOGETHER to get out from under our debt and start a new life together. We had even planned to move to another town & now he's saying he had basically called that off 2 months ago but didn't tell me. Also how I am "just not a very good wife." Just a week ago on my birthday he took me out to dinner and gave me this sweet handwritten card about how we get closer every year and he hopes for many more. Now I know it was all nothing but bullshit. It makes me sick. I feel like my whole life has been ripped out from under me. I know things were not always perfect, but the ONE thing that has always kept me going through all of this is the light at the end of the tunnel. And he just doused that. We basically agreed we have to stay together for the next few months to pay things off. I can't stand being fake and pretending all is rosey when obviously he's been feeling otherwise for a long time. After this I will literally have nothing, and I am almost 40 and too old to start over. I have no family or friends, and have basically ruined my entire life. So what, I can end up divorced and living in a shitty apartment at a job I hate, paycheck to paycheck, to die alone? At this point I am honestly feeling like I will survive/work long enough to pay off whatever, and then I will probably just go somewhere and die. I know that sounds pitiful, but really at this point, I have nothing to offer and no real will to live. |
