I am SEETHING! - 02/22/10 06:49 AM
Recap: I believe my WH was a serial cheater, although he only admits to ONE ONS. I have never been able to get the truth, although I am positive that I have figured out a few more "flings".
About 12 or so years ago, we were at an outdoor party. Because the party was so big, the hosts held the party in their huge barn. They parked their motor home nearby to provide restroom facilities.
It was chilly, so I was sitting around the bonfire with other people. My WH cme up to me to tell me that there had been an "incident".
WH said that he was helping this female guest up the steps of the motor home because she wasn't steady on her feet, when her crazy, insanely jealous husband came up and tried to start a fight, accusing my WH of inapropriate behavior with his wife.
Yeah, I should have realized that WH was doing damage control.
Anyway, there were other things that happened later that aroused my suspicions. I wa already uncomfortable about this woman, because from the moment I met her, she acted like she wanted to be my best friend. She worked back in the office of a store where I shopped sometimes, but if she found out I was there, she would come out specifically to be all chatty with me. A couple of weeks after the party incident, WH and I were at the local sports bar when she came in. WH invited her to sit down with us, and she said that she and her family had moved to another town. WH told her that we wished her well. He also told her that her H was an A-H***, but if she ever needed any help he and I would both be glad to help her. She just sat there, looking down at the table and nodding her head. It was surreal...felt like I was watching him dump her!
Anyway, a few years ago, I tracked her down and asked her if anything had been going on between her and my WH. She denied it. I asked her about the party, and she said that all that happened was that he had come on a little strong, but that he did not make a pass at her. She said that her husband didn't like how they were dancing together. First, I didn't know he ws dancing with her. When I went to sit by the fire, he was talking to a bunch of guys. Second, this does not match my WH's story.
Anyway, WH continued to deny that he had an affair with her.
This week, I found her on Facebook and saw that she is now divorced. I then found her son, and through his list of friends, I found her ex-H.
I messaged him to ask him the truth about what happened at that party.
HE WON'T TELL ME!!!
He told me that it had been a long time and that sometimes we have to "let things go". Oh...and he told me that his ex-W was an alcoholic and bi--polar, so he was sure that she contributed to the situation. As a friend pointed out to me...he told me 2 things about his ex that were none of my business, but he won't tell me 1 thing about my WH that IS my business!
After a few more messages, he told me that he was sorry that he couldn't help me, but it had been a long time.
My last message to him was that I found it hard to believe that he would not remember an incident where he confronted someone over inappropriate behavior with his then wife.
I know my WH isn't cheating NOW, but I need the truth. I cannot leave him because our finances are in the toilet due to the economy and his not being able to work for 6 months last year. I can't get a job because I have serous health issues and no insurance to pay for needed surgery. I am waiting on a disability hearing.
I'm thinking of going to see the XOW and bluffing her to see if she'll crack.
I can do this without losing my cool. I've done it before. What do y'all think?
