My husband and I have been married for almost five years. I have never caught him cheating or even suspected him for that matter. The problem is he just got a new cell phone and the bill came to the house. He tried to hide it but I found it and there was this telephone number that appeared a number of times for extended periods. Quite naturally I called the number and a young lady answered - I hung up. My questions is should I investigate it more or just leave it alone. There are no other signs of cheating. My husband is always at home, he never really goes out. I basically always know where he is at. On the other hand, he has started hiding his cell phone and he keeps it off when he is around me.

If I have learned nothing else from this experience (being betrayed) it is this:
check everything.<p>I would definitely be checking on what is going on with this number. <p>Why is your husband hiding his cell phone bill - there is NO good (as in honest) explanation to this question.<p>Why is this number, obviously owned by a "young lady" appearing repeatedly on your husband's cell phone bill? Maybe someone from work....maybe not.<p>If you are asking yourself these questions in the first place.......to me that's the best sign something may be up.<p>I had VERY LITTLE if ANY evidence to believe my WH was having an A. - Why did I search the house like a maniac??? - I still don't have an answer. But it was that search that turned up the incontrovertible proof of my husband betraying me.<p>Go with your gut instinct - it's probably right.

You could try being totally honest with him. Have you done the questionairres on the MB site? Maybe this is the just start of something and you two could get some help. Start communicating and tell him how you feel even if it does make things uncomfortable. You are entitled to your opinions about the mistrust you feel and he needs to be able to explain his actions and then get some help! Best of luck

I'm not recommending that you do this but... There is a web site that allows you to enter a phone number and will give you a name and address for that phone. The web site is www.anywho.com, then click on the reverse lookup tab.

This could be my story exactly!Only it took me a while to figure it out.Ask your husband who this "young woman"is,but be prepared for him to deny her,or even knowing her,or even ever talking to her.You may hear things like"it must be some mistake the phone company made".Or it could indeed be harmless.Find out now,i urge you.It took several weeks for me to find out who the woman was on the other end of the phone.Turns out it was a person we went to high school with.She and I were never friends.i confronted them both.Of course they assured me that they were just friends,blah,blah,blah.So I told them that if they wanted to be friends,they could have the guts to call each other at home,no secrets,either from me or the other husband.Well,they just got better at covering their tracks.The bill was then published with no itemized portion.Just a few weeks ago,I learned how to access the bill online.It seems that they have been talking every day for 3 years.I am devastated,although I truely believe this isn't physical,it's still a lie,and very destructive to our marriage.I will pray for you,but I urge you to find out the whole truth,now.It hurts so much more later.

DING! DING! DING!<p>That is the red flags popping up. Honest opinion? Yep, something is going on. Why else would he hide the phone, and the bill?<p>My H did the same. Yep OW....I went through the call list and address book with him, he got to her name, says it is a guy from work....with a girl's name??? Believe me, you are about to hear some whoppers [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif" border="0[/img] .<p>Sorry, you need to get right onto this.<p>Love and light,<p>Jacky
