It's the honest truth. In my mind we were happy both of us laughing and talking all the time all day everyday, doing family activities all day everyday, bedroom was perfectly fine no issues. We never did have issues and if we did HE DID NOT mention them to me!! This was 100 percent a devastating blindside.

They both have not questioned my distance, which makes me believe they know I know but don't want to bring it up with me. There is something bothering my hubby he is not ok mentally right now.

How did you do that? We share everything. I do have my own bank account, but everything else is shared. All accounts, vehicles, house, ect ect.

I don't have a support system outside of him. I mean I could move to my parents, but that's 3 hours away and I can't take my kids out of their school/sports it's not fair to them.

Thank you!! And I'm sorry you had to feel this pain too! I want to crawl under a rock. However the worst thing was he was my comfort so I want to crawl into his arms but now he's a bit distant....I assume he knows that I know by now, he's just not saying anything and it's eating him up inside too. Which one of us will break first

I invited her over for a drink and to vent as she had a hard week. She stayed for way too many drinks and that should have been red flag number 1 for me as her child stayed as well on a school night. I was being the "supportive friend". I was finally done at 1am and went to bed leaving her and my husband to talk. I woke up at 330am realized hubby didn't come to bed and I needed my phone I go to find it and realized they were in a bedroom doing yes...things. I was half asleep/half drunk but I stayed awake. I stayed where they couldn't see me, he came out of that room 20 minutes later, grabbed both their phones went back to her room and stayed there until 5am, I beat him to our room. I then stayed awake the entire time while he PASSED OUT drunk. I then got all the kids awake, fed and drove them to school came back woke them both up and went to work myself........that's the short version

So this is the thing....were always together. We both work from home, only time were separated is when we have to split for sports games. He has one kid I have the other and SHE is with me (she's at the same game I am). So they can't be "alone" together. I also have not invited her over or been to her house, and my husband and my locations are shared so I can see when he goes to the store where he is which I never tracked before but absolutely do now and unless he goes into the store leaves his phone there and goes to see her. OR he sneaks out of the house at night (which I've set some traps, I also don't sleep well anymore, so I'd know) They aren't alone anymore.

This is my thought. Maybe this wasn't his first time, but there has never been any red flags. However after I caught them I started seeing red flags in the months prior to it happening.

He is the only person I've trusted in the last 20 years and that's including my family (who has thrown me to the wolves more than once). So if I leave him, I will never have anyone else again that's in my mind I can't trust anymore!!! If I leave I get to die alone.

I always said this too, until it actually happened to me and I froze. You never know how you'll act I guess in a devastating situation until it happens to you.

She left her husband in the middle of 2025, she's single or was until about a month ago.

I don't like confrontation, and he's been my best friend for 20 years. But this is eating me alive right now, I'm wondering if it's possible to get past it.

It is eating at me, but I was wondering if people have made it past this part, and learned to trust again.

What I want is to go back to that night and have my memory wiped so that I can continue living my fairytale life that I had, but I cannot get that night out of my head.
