Update 5/20: I have a few threads going so I wanted to update on here as well. Posted: 3:33 PM, May 20th (Monday), 2019 View ProfileEdit MessagePrivate MessageHomepage
Hi all. So remember how I said I was collecting evidence because he hasn’t actually admitted? Well. I came home to change before the gym, threw my coffee in the recycling and guess what I found right on top? A Starbucks cup with HER name on it. I feel like I just won the lottery lol.
He was home. I actually didn’t Initiate any text conversation today. It’s been all him. I was very brief with our interaction as I came and went but he was kind of following me around. Very interesting...
I grabbed the cup and I’m holding onto it. I am not sure where I should put it. I wanted to confront him right then and there, but I held off and I wanted to go work out lol.
I’m going to start consulting with some lawyers and find out my rights (fear of the unknown is what scares me most about pursuing a D). We will see if we have another conversation about his affair that he won’t admit to and I will show him what I found. Then it’s ultimatum time. As much as I want to reconcile I don’t believe he will because he’s too deep in this affair fog. If he decides to reconcile great but if he chooses her, good riddance and I will tell everyone exactly why we broke up.
Have a great day.

I believe my husband’s affair started as an emotional affair. It’s a girl he sees at the gym and they started talking on Instagram. I noticed back in January, but never said anything because I trusted him and I don’t care who he is friends with. Well one day about a month ago he just went completely cold and said he didn’t love me anymore and he felt stuck and such. This literally came out of the blue up until then I felt things were actually going really well. I noticed the texting really picked up after that. That’s when it hit me that their affair crossed a line naans clearly progressed into something more..
I haven’t been able to read their messages but I have caught a few in his watch. She was pissed they couldn’t meet that morning because I worked from home and also that it was too much for her mentally. Well clearly things are still okay because I know the affair is continuing.
I do not want to get a divorce. We definitely neglected our relationship after our child was born. I want to work it out and it seems like when we do make some strides, this girl keeps sinking her claws in deeper.
I just can’t stand the thought of giving him what he wants and this woman being my daughters step mom. What a great role model for our daughter... a woman who thinks it’s ok to pursue a married man. Yes, I know my husband is just at fault.
I am trying to drag this out as long as possible. I am saving some money and gathering evidence for now (he has never actually admitted to the affair). In case he does actually leave me. I have no family here and not much of a savings so I am trying to play it smart. Even though it’s so hard.
I’ve made all the mistakes of crying, begging pleading etc. part of me wishes he would just wake up and realize that this is a fantasy world and the grass will not be greener. I know many things say you should give them space, but I’m absolutely terrified that I would lose him for good. The thought of them going off and having their happily ever after makes me so angry too.
I have been doing more for myself lately though and doing all the self care things, and it feels really good!
I know at the end of the day I will be ok no matter the outcome. I honestly could forgive him if he would come clean and admit he was wrong.
I feel like this post is all over the place but if you all read it, thanks for listening to my thoughts.
