I've been married 8yrs with 3 kids. About 2yrs ago I found she was chatting on a website with guys while I was deployed. We talked and wokred it out. She said it was loneliness and a her sexual fantasy. In the last year I've cuagt her on FB having what i think are inappropriate conversations with guys she know. Once I came home and she was on her laptop upstair and I was downstaris and kept hearing noises from the coumpter and it was her FB page up and chatting with this guy. She said they were only joking and i told her how i felt..said it would never happen again. Yesterday I came home and she left her FB page up and forgot and asked me to look up something for her again it was a chat message to her asking was she still coming out there for her bday. she said he must have sent to the wrong person, but her bday is next month and he lives in her home town. After that she again said sorry and deleted her FB page. Should I trust her or not? Right now I just can't seem to get over it and i'm ready to leave. Any advise? Thanks

maino, no, you should not trust her AT ALL. I would strongly suggest you slip a keylogger on her computer and see what she is doing. A good one that will email you reports is eblaster at spectorsoft.com

It sounds like she is trolling for affairs on the internet. She has very inappropriate boundaries around men and the solution is for her to end all opposite sex "friendships" and stay off the computer unless it is with you.

But FIRST, go slip a keylogger on her computer, find out what she is doing and then come back here.

Hell no, you shouldn't trust her, because her boundaries are gone and either she has no idea how close she is to going over the edge into sleeping with one of these guys, or she has already contemplated the possibility & decided to keep it alive for the hell of it, just to see what might happen. Either way, your marriage is in dire peril as long as she is in thes mindset of feeling entitled to carry on these extra-marital relationships (regardles of whether they are physical affairs or anything but fantasy). You need to reach out to these guys (and their wives/SOs if you can ID them) AND their friends & FB buddies and your wife's parents with your evidence, and blow the lid off these exchanges, embarrass them with their own words, and make clear to your wife that you will not stand for her going outside your marriage in this way.

Bumped for truth from ML and GO.

Start with "hell no".
