To call this cheating

For two weeks my husband has been hiding messaging a married neighbour. He gave ‘them’ some of our red wine collection (he was a previous red wine drinker but I still use it for cooking) they have met up for 2 dog walks, and planned to go running together. I haven’t seen the context of most messages as he deletes them
and seems very defensive of it, it’s ’just a friend’ ‘your not controlling me’ bullshit.

her husband is apparently fine with their friendship, I’m not sure if they are in an open relationship, he just doesn’t mind or he’s not aware of the full extent of it. Friday he sent my husband a message to stay away from his wife, but the day later she was messaging him again. He protests his innocence and I’ve been made out to be the psycho at the only one not comfortable with this.

I gave him the option to end the friendship or leave so he’s going to be leaving. I can’t see how everyone is okay with this except me?! She even sent him a pic of her ‘tattos’ it was a picture from her private instagram but she’s in bra and pants and can see her nipples just totally Inappropriate. He used to call her grumpy bitch to me as she never used to say hello or smile ect, I guess he’s changed his opinion now 🫣

The photo sending sounds dodgy but the dog walking, running and wine sounds normal and neighbourly - round here there’s a nice community of dog walkers who arrange walks and message each other, regardless of their relationship status…

Obviously you aren’t the only one rightly uncomfortable with this, OP. They are behaving badly and her H doesn’t like it either.

Sadly if your H is really determined to get involved with her you are better off without him. Keep that in mind! But he might be bluffing
