Yes. In a purely pathetic way, pretend FBI lady is entertaining. Her batsh*t crazy factor is huge.
She/he isn't actually anything other than a poorly written troll.

you may not like what is said ^ but you can't deny it.
and FWIW, I'm not white, I have a graduate degree, and despite the pull back in the market, I am still worth quite a few $$$$$. but you do you - paint with the broad brush and try to insult and deflect rather than acknowledge what is true.

I did not realize how strong the pull is to emulate a father who had cheated and acted like cheating was not only ok but a positive good (follow happiness, etc). Cheating is definitely a function of mental health problems for the cheater, immaturity, etc. We are working to reconcile now but it takes a tremendous amount of therapy for cheater and marriage. Find experienced emotionally focused therapist (Gottman method). Cheater has to have no contact, full transparency and work very very hard on themself. They need to feel for themself deep remorse and shame. We are not a year out yet so I dont know yet if it will work but investment is worth it for me (and not for money reasons). Obviously the other woman is a complete piece of shit — in our case someone who clearly had daddy issues and inappropriate conduct including in a work place. She is also married. Best wishes PP whose story sounds like my own.
Thanks. I’m sorry this happened to you as well.
Hell- it probably could have been the same woman doing it again with my husband![]()
Are you living in separate homes now? Do your kids know something is going on?
Did the other woman’s husband ever find out?
OP — I would be happy to talk with you directly but don’t know how to send a personal message. DH and I have stayed in the same house. What you are experiencing is equivalent to post traumatic stress. It is horrible, devastating, one of the very worst things that can happen to you. I am seven months out and struggling so much every single day. It takes years to reconcile and what is required from the cheater is enormous because they have to be the one to change themselves and help heal you at the same time and they were not equipped before this which is why they cheated. In our case, the OW’s husband knew about it — they are young and have some version of polyamory or something like that. So he knew and was ok with it. All fo them knew I did not know and was being deceived. Also, you need to be sure to take care of yourself physically — may need to assume sex was unprotected — not shocking when you think about the mindset. I immediately got tested. I know that might be hard right now but call your doctor. PM me if you know how and if you want. So sorry. Also think about who to tell if you might want to reconcile. Some people are so opposed. What you want is emotionally attuned support for you. I had one girlfriend who was the absolute best for months and then several others also.

So somehow she got my friend’s number and was calling her for phone. She wasn’t pregnant, and it was unclear what the money was for. My friend was floored.

She told him to go F himself, threw her dogs and a suitcase into her car and drove back down to the DMV to her parents house. They didn’t have kids but they had been college sweethearts and she had put him through law school with her teachers salary. They got divorced, but not before my law firm and his had to close a huge deal together and I was forced to spend a week in a conference room with him, 14 hour days and he knew that I knew.
My friend met a new man a few years after her divorce, they got married and now she’s living happily ever after with him and their kids.
Lol did you friend get remarried and have kids at age 54?
Sweetie... age is nothing but a number.
True, having kids at 54 is a challenge, but all of life's other adventures are still wide open and ready for the taking!
Or haven't you heard?
Women are like fine wine, we get better with time.
well that only applies to the rarest of vintages....99% of the others turn into vinegar. and are completely undrinkable just saying

I’m so upset and sick and haven’t slept so I can’t function to find one.
I’m working and have my boys- 12/14 who I am having to pretend dads on work trip. He does work in an area it could be believable
I've been in your position, OP, and I'm so so sorry. Do you need help making a plan?
1) I know telling people is scary, and you don't really know what words to use, but I would beg you to pick up the phone and call your closest girlfriend. I promise this will feel better when you aren't holding it inside. You've done nothing wrong. You have nothing to be ashamed of. You feel in love with someone broken, and who made bad choices, but who among us hasn't?
2) Your employer probably has an employee assistance line that will get you 3 free therapies. It won't be great but will give you practice telling your story.
3) I'm sorry.

Ok FBI agent here. I’ll give all you goofballs some of my secrets eventho I should be charging you.I bought about 6 mini digital voice activated recorders. I used Velcro to attach them to places I thought covert convos would happen. Inside car for sure, under his/hers office desk, and places in your house where they might carry on conversations. Under your bed if he’s a real slime ball and he has someone over while you’re away.. These things are amazing and I caught those rat bastards every time! But now with the loss of verbal Communications that’s a little harder. Renting a gps is what I did too. Renting is so much easier because they come already set up and all you have to do is put your login they give you and a password on the computer and attach that magnetic sucker under their car. Oh boy was that fun watching their every move even while I would be talking to them.
You really don’t need to rent them long if you suspect anything trust me. Mine was going to massage parlors during work hours. Ugh. You’re welcome! btw if you’re not ready for the truth don’t do it, keep your head in the sand.
It's so easy now. Even back in the day it was simple to catch a cheater. Mine had a pager, but was really secretive. I went and ordered a Motorola pager just like his, put a scratch in the corner like his, then they were identical. Switched the pagers out and I kept his for 3 days. When his got a page I would immediately call my pager and put the number through. Sure enough he was getting a partial number or code that was suspicious. Immediately me and a friend followed him from work in her car, sure enough he was cheating on me.
I taught a lot of women that one back in the day, LOL. Today I've given a few friends a website with a good gps with a magnet where you just log in and can see in real time where the vehicle is. One husband was parking his car in a shopping center over a hour. My friend went and waited and sure enough the W was picking him up. It's always a mistake to put your head in the sand whether it's finance related, or partner related. Get to the bottom of it and solve the problem.
