Today, I got a call from an ex, demanding to know why my Facebook relationship status was set as married. I got married a few months ago, and I quietly explained this to her. My wife overheard and now thinks I've been cheating all along. FML

Unless your wife has serious self-esteem and jealousy issues, you can still explain it to her.

Should have been rude about it. That way, you don't have to worry about your ex and your wife will feel good that you "really told her!" Besides she is an ex... who care? Tell her your heart was able to somehow move on and you found someone you love and actually want to marry.

Nothing wrong with talking to an ex. Not answering the phone when she calls, just because your wife is there, makes you guilty anyway. Both your ex and your wife sound psycho though. You know how to pick 'em.

I don't think YDI for talking to your ex. YDI for marrying someone who would view a conversation like that with suspicion. That is, unless you have given her a reason to believe you would cheat...

I'm with you, especially since he was explaining that he had gotten married. It's been my experience that men who cheat don't usually take the time to explain all that.

If your wife thinks you may have been cheating on her just by one conversation with an ex, I'd think there is a reason why she'd get so suspicious of you cheating on her... but YDI for 'quietly' explaining your married now, doesnt look good on your half.

First of all, it's none of your EX girlfriends business. Secondly, tell your wife to get over it because it's not like she overheard you denying being married. Are both of these ''women'' teenagers?

Her: Why is your status set to married?! OP: Uh, because I got married a few months ago. Her: Blargle blargle bitch moan blargle-- *Click* That's all that needed to happen.

You should have told your ex "Because I'm married." and hang up the phone. It's not her business why you're now married. Tell her to **** off.

Well considering your username is "married and hates" I'm guessing you hate being married and hate your wife. f your wife's life, you never even should've answered your ex's call in the first place.

I'm not a jealous person by nature, but if I heard my new husband "quietly" explaining the marriage to an ex that thinks she's entitled to demand an explanation, because he thought she deserved one, I'd be a little upset too. If this woman is still involved in your life, you should have mentioned the marriage. If she's not, it really doesn't look good, and you should have respected your wife enough to tell this woman it was none of her business and moved on. If your wife is so insecure with the relationship that overhearing one conversation is enough to make her believe you've been cheating all along, you shouldn't have gotten married to begin with.

? How long have u been broken up and dating ur wife 2 not go from single to in a relationship to engaged, then married? If she's that much of a stalker ex she would have known, y was it such a surprise 2 her? And btw he said calmly and quietly, if he wasn't whispering he woulda just said calmly.... And to that ugly girl, if ur husband was talkin 2 his ex quietly, u would not like it. Don't try 2 lie 2 urself. Mrs its ok 4 me 2 do it but not ok 4 u. And op y wouldn't u c if ur wife is there, and say omg can u believe this, then said 2 ur RV because I got married 2 her, because I love her, but its really none of ur business soo bye bye!!! Come on its not an fml its a newlywed mistake, ull learn. Out urself in her position. Go 2 her and say I'm sry I kno it looks bad but I did not think of u 1st before I said anything and I should, I will work on what my mom used 2 always tell me, think it through b4 u do..... And I'd ur cheating... Shouldn't have got married... Have fun wit allomony...
