What are the chances this is innocent? I was just going through my laundry and found a pair of white knickers that are definitely not mine.

No big problems in our relationship, he would like sex more often than me but when we do have it it’s very loving. He isn’t acting any differently and has always been very loyal.

Wwyd?

This has happened to me a few times. They always turn out to be my sister in law or mother in law's!
(When we go to visit, we occasionally do washing there)

Could your situation be similar?

Did your OH go on some kind of (business) trip lately?

I did wonder that. I did have to ask my auntie to do us a white wash a while back but she is usually a couple of dress sizes bigger than the knickers.

Should I ask her? It feels very embarrassing asking if they are hers!

Leave them causally with the pile of washing and await his reaction if any.

Are they your husband's size?

There's a big difference between saucy knickers & granny pants. What do they look like & what size are they?

Would they fit your husband?

the size I am in trousers/skirt isnt the same size as my knickers, so the chances are they 'could' be a relatives.

I dont want to scare you OP but one of my friends had a fling with a married guy last summer. She was in love with him, he wanted to stay with his wife, she left some earrings in the bedroom on purpose to make the wife suspicious. Hope not that something like that is going on in your life....if I were you, I would ask your auntie! I am sure she won’t mind you asking in this kind of situation as most women would understand very well you want to be sure what is going on!

No not his size!

Do you think I should ask my auntie before I ask him?

It's highly unlikely your partner is shagging someone in your home who left with out their knickers and they were then put in the wash basket. Let's be honest here.

They’re not sexy which is a good start

Hopefully your aunties. My cousin found a pair of knickers that weren’t hers. Turns out he was cheating

Surely this is the explanation then.

Start with your auntie - if she did a white wash it's very likely they're hers.

Ok, I hereby withdrawl my previous post Grin.
Those panties are either from your auntie or someone else did laundry at your auntie’s house too and auntie mistook them for being yours.
I was expecting a see trough thong to be honest.

Are they clean ? if they are then sounds like they got caught up with your washing that your Aunt did. I'd ask your aunt first.

Yeah sexier than my knickers too! I bet they're Auntie's though.

They'd be classed as sexy in my house!! (post hysterectomy I can only wear granny pants!) Luckily dh isn't bothered, says it's what's under them that counts.
But seriously, they don't look like 'affair knickers' and the fact that you did a white wash at your Aunts, suggests there's an innocent explanation? Send her the photo maybe?
