Love, Marriage and Cheating: Sounds fishy

Sounds fishy

By Anonymous - 13/02/2021 11:01

Today, I told my wife I wasn’t comfortable with her going out with an old guy friend. Petty, sure, but our sex life is non-existent. I found out that she's been seeing him behind my back for months, spent the night with him last week and claims there’s nothing going on. Trying to decide whether I should stay or go. FML

Today, I found out that my wife had been debating leaving me for an old boyfriend from high school. They rekindled their relationship on Facebook, and talking on the cell phone. Both things I insisted she have. FML

What should I do?

By Anonymous - 09/08/2024 13:00 - United States

Today, I found out my significant other of 14 years roughly has been with another guy for over a year and they’ve taken it all the way, if you know what I mean. While living with me. I’d watch our 4 kids so she "could go out to the movies with a girlfriend" of hers. I definitely got fucked on that one, not sure what to do now. FML

Today, I found out why my wife has been upset with me for the last week. She told me this morning that I did something to upset her on our date night last Friday, she won't tell me what, and she said she'll leave me if I do it again. FML

Not OK

By Homeles - 16/06/2023 00:00 - United States - Fort Lauderdale

Today, I was sick and tired of my husband talking to his female friend from high school all the time. They reconnected after 7 years and have been talking non-stop day and night, to the point of neglecting the marriage. I told him it was either me or her. He took off his ring and kicked me out of our house. FML

Effed around, found out

By Ryan - 06/02/2024 18:00 - United States

Today, the woman I left my wife for says she doesn’t wanna date me because she "sees me as a best friend” and “You just got divorced, it’s kinda awkward.” I caught feelings for this woman, tried to fight it for months and finally caved in, only to be told she sees me as a platonic friend. My wife won’t take me back. FML

Policy of truth

By Home Alone 33 - 24/02/2022 14:00

Today, after two months of being apart from my wife of five years, who'd returned to Panama to deal with a family issue, she innocently slips into conversation that she’s been hanging out with her high school boyfriend. When challenged, she responded, “You get to see me all the time!” FML

Detective work

Today, I followed my wife out, since she's been acting strangely lately and I was suspicious. She met up with a guy at a restaurant, who she later claimed was her brother. Either she's cheating on me, or it's tradition in her family to make out and grope each other at the end of meals. FML

Today, my husband told me that I’m no longer “allowed” to see my best friend of 27 years. He’s worked up in his mind that she’s going to try to convince me to cheat on him because she’s single. She literally introduced us and was the maid of honor at our wedding. FML

I’ve been through this and no amount of denial and trying to convince yourself she’s faithful is going to make this better. And trust me, it’s going to hurt. My ex did it with what I thought was my best friend. I seriously implore you to reach out to some good friends you can trust, as you are going to need support to go through this this. Therapist might be necessary too, not for both, but just for you. So you can cope, because you will go through the stages of grief on this. I’m not sure if I honestly hurt via many broken bones in my life (22 to count to this date including snapping my femur 2x like a toothpick), as much as my ex cheating did. Wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy, but no matter how it may make you think it’s not over, I seriously implore you to get a separation on record asap, because if she gets pissed at you accusing her, or you leaving, she can run up credit cards and because you are considered liable until a court recognizes the separation, you could be liable for any expenses she racks up. And it will make things more complicated when the divorce comes, as you don’t want something she did stupidly to screw you in the end. If you don’t have kids, that makes it a bit less messy, but if you do, they will need therapy. Try not to do anything revenge-like, as it can and will backfire. I’ve not been a party to, but have been a witness to revenge, and saw the consequences of it. Jail time isn’t pretty, nor going to make things better. So just pack your bags and leave. And get a lawyer. A decent one. If you cheap out, you may regret it.

A relationship where there is no sex is not a relationship, as far as I am concerned. She probably needed some so she went ahead and got some. I am not saying this is your fault. But women need sex too, you know. Did you actually do anything to fix the sex issue? The fact is, in the end, she is probably doing both of you a favour by giving your marriage the head shot that it needs. It has been over for a long time, just make it official

Oh my dear friend - go - set yourself free and go find your own happy place. Stay safe and keep your chin up.

Sex or not, she hid another man from you for months. She could have invited him to dinner, or a bbq, or some shit, so you all could chill together and they could catch up. Instead she thought it was better to lie to your face even to the point of staying the night with this man (again, sex or not). I bet she drinks with him too, otherwise she probably would have made it home. Her actions are deceitful and disrespectful at best. At this point it doesn't even matter if she came clean on her own or was caught. The relationship is corroding and poisoned. Leave. Before it sucks you back in for round 2.

Gooooooooo! Even if "nothing" really happened, this will never leave you or stop you from imagining the worse all the time from now on. The fact of the matter is she HID SOMETHING from you, and not something small either. Don't wait, don't let your emotions try to tell you that its "Technically, physically POSSIBLE that nothing happened." You'll waste a lot of time doing that. Just Go.
