New to the forum, angry - need help - 12/22/15 01:08 PM
Dear All,
I wish I had found this forum when the seeds of betrayal were sown 7 years or so ago.
my WS and I worked for the same organisation and in the same office and i caught him sexting an OW, who he claimed he just met(bla bla bla), a few days later i felt that this was way to deep to be some random thing and I snooped and found out they knew each other. I confronted him, he apologised and promised to break off contact. I was pregnant with our first child. I later found because I was still suspicious that he hadnt broken anything off and they were still chatting as 'friends'. i also found out he had slept at her house. He promised adn promised and I fell for it.
anyway, he moved away to a remote job and I declined to follow due to the fact that I had a small child and no job in that area. He stayed there for about two years and then I got pregnant again and received a text from someone about him cheating with another OW, which I confronted him (he gave me some story) and life was more or less ok until my third child was born - where I got tired of not being allowed to touch his mobile devices. I managed to get his phone and called his OW. this OW then called his mom, who took him to task. I thought it was done.
MY WS is in another town as he is studying, and I declined to go with him (my argument was - i didnt want to be sitting at home while he enjoyed himself 20km away with whoever female caught his fancy, keeping meals warm etc and then accused of making him fail).
So last week I managed to take a sneak peak at his phones again, I found that he had two girlfriends, and a baby with one of them. This is after assurances he made to me that he had stopped communicating with women two years ago. I was upset.I couldn't send the conversations to myself because of wonky internet and he woke up soon after demanding his phones. he then confronted me after reading my phone message log ( I had outed him to a few of my closest friends). he basically said I had no evidence adn if he told my friends that I had left him to go to school alone, then i would be the butt of their jokes and laughter because I couldn't hang on to my husband.
of course I did everything wrong. anyway, I am a bit too angry right now to write down all the details, but suffice to say - I am waiting on some evidence. In my country, my culture: exposure is not an option. Apparently it is expected that men will stray and women should not because a man straying will not break the home. I have a friend who exposed on Facebook and she was immediately contacted and told not to air dirty linen in public. I am so torn - and it looks like there may even be a baby involved.
He seems willing to make things work, but how do you get past 10 years of lies (we've been married 10 years, I dont know when he started lying). I cant believe anything that comes out of his mouth now.
