| I know several gay men who appreciate receiving flowers as a gift, and at least one straight man as well. |
PP here who posted the coworker story above. Sorry for confusion and sorry to disappoint. Coworker is a woman and the other woman (OW) was her AP's wife who discovered the texts, and throws a mean punch too, as it turns out. I learned about all of the above during my own brief EAP with coworker. While she's incredibly attractive, I couldn't deal with the Narcissistic abuse. |
Can't conceive going thru all that mess just to catch somebody. Soon as it gets to the point where I'm that suspicious and seriously considering using GPS software or hiring a PI to monitor somebody's whereabouts - that's it. Don't matter if they cheating or not the simple fact that they have me so unsettled is all the proof I need to call it quits. Trust gone relationship over. Not about to spend my life sniffing around everything somebody says and does like a police dog in order to fully trust them. That's not my idea of a good relationship so for their sake and my sake I'd suggest we shut it down and go our separate ways - sanity over sanctity. |
You might be surprised. |
Mine had a change in music as well during affair. When someone goes from KennyG type stuff to Eminem you notice
Went with the dressing different, dying hair, lots of overtime yet less money, coffee replacing tea and other small changes. |

Warning to everyone on the precipice of a mid-life crisis:
Your spouse is going to think you're cheating because of your change in music/clothing/food to fight off feeling old. |
I assumed mid-life crisis at first, and did not worry much at all. He was comfortably cheating for just over a year, before I figured out it went beyond a mid-life crisis. |
I wrote the long post above. I forgot to mention that in addition to the 12 pound weight loss, and change in musical tastes, my dear spouse also upgraded their style of dress. |
Me again. Yes, I also assumed it was a mid-life crisis. My dear spouse even said as much, and I encouraged and praised all of these positive changes. DS was many months into this all-consuming affair before I discovered different. |
Or . . . Often if it looks like fish, smells like fish, and tastes like fish, your hubby is enjoying himself some fish! |
I'm fine with your gender neutral post, but on this forum "DS" means "Dear Son." So maybe just spell it out. |
+1000 "DEAR SON"?!? Just spell out spouse. Your posts about your son are confusing. |
| Thank,you for that advice. I will not use that DS shorthand any more, as I do not want to confuse anyone into thinking I am Jocasta, and my dear spouse Oedipus. |
Why wouldn’t you just have not opened the door? |
It might be more interesting if you were. |
