yikes, guess they are multiple men out there. We’re no in Maryland though. If the group of ppl know why not tell the wife, or maybe she already knowsAnonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Need advice..went through my husbands phone as I found messages of him entertaining other women.

We got into a heated argument about the texts because he blamed me for having to lie about where he’s going. No apologies just deflection. I’m not texting men “I love you” or communicating with other men like inappropriately. This is considered emotionally cheating right?
Need help, do I divorce or am I over reacting?
OP, not to pry to heavily in your personal life. Do you happen to live in Maryland? Think I know who this man is.
Lol, as if this is so unique.
There are tens if not 100s of thousands of men in MD doing the same thing. Sweet summer child.
+1 Know a guy in Maryland into groups. Everyone in our crowd knows he is married with two kids.

Do this... STAT.
Even if you need to borrom money from a friend or relative to hire the PI, it's worth it!
They'll do a deep dive on his social media presence, his calls & texts, when he has to "leave the house", you'll get it all.
Then you'll know for sure... hire the PI, like now.
Honestly, this money would be better spent on an attorney. Evidence gathered is unlikely to make difference in the divorce, and anyway, you already have enough access to devices to continue to monitor and you have seen enough to know the marriage is over.
Focus on getting a lawyer and preparing to get out.
I agree. Waste of money to get a PI. Go see a good lawyer. Best of luck.

+1. Sorry, OP. But get out fir your kids if no other reason. You will screw them up with major themes around what relationships should look like otherwise.

You have a crazy roommate not a husband. Why do you need ‘evidence’ ? It’s not going to help in court. Just initiate a separation and talk with a mediator to get a legal boundaries in place.

This. And there have been a lot of them lately. It's just sad and pathetic and makes me wonder what is wrong with them.
They have young children and they don't have jobs or the skills to be able to find jobs that will pay them enough to cover their same cost of living PLUS childcare for two kids, THAT'S what's "wrong" with them. You can only make so much money selling cricut-made party supplies, PP.

Yeah, people always talk about "gathering evidence," but it won't matter. Most states have no-fault divorce, it's not going to affect custody or child support or the division of assets or anything.
I think you're imagining that you'll confront him with the evidence and he'll just break down and confess or something, but generally speaking, whatever reaction you get won't make you feel better or give you closure or whatever you're imagining. Just get a lawyer and divorce already.

+1. divorced due to these types of lies and gaslighting. It will drive you crazy and will always be your fault.

This. How is this even a question? He is lazy, lies to you about many things, and is cheating on you..
Leave now.

I'm very sorry, OP. Therapy, lawyer, start taking all the money and assets you can now. You need to calmly and measuredly plan an exit.

Talk to a lawyer and possibly a financial advisor and get your ducks in a row. Stash away money. Make plans, take your time if you need to. Don't tell him you're planning a divorce, let it be a nice surprise. And I agree you should get tested for STDs.
We’ve only been married two years, no assets together. Got a savings account thats all mine (that he just learned about). Got a joint account but I don’t put anything in there cuz he’ll just spend it.
Where is his money?
He has his own separate checking account. And just got added another line to our phone plan for the “business” he wants to start. But I think it’s a side phone...he texted his other phone the code so I now have it. Dummy
Oh boy OP my cousin was married to a guy like this and he got into tremendous debt through credit cards etc. at the end of the marriage just out of spite and ruined her credit. Get out ASAP before he starts accumulating debt for his “business” that you will be on the hook for.
