To cut my husband's ****edited by MNHQ**** with blunt scissors?

So my husband works shifts and this week it is his early shift - he is gone from the house by 5am. I came down this morning to find he had left his iPhone on the worktop. As I was making breakfast for DC's I pressed the home button on his phone to check the time and saw an unread message from my best friend of 27 years saying "is she in bed yet?".

Now, it's my birthday next week so I thought they were arranging some special surprise for me. So left it as that. Dropped the kids off at school but something was niggling at me, I just had this feeling in my gut. His iPhone has got a passcode which I don't know. On my third attempt, by pure and utter luck, I managed to guess it right and get into his phone. What I have seen has made me sick to my stomach. My "friend" has been sending my husband dirty naked pics of herself - full on legs spread and sex toys involved. There are no replies or conversation from him but then I guess these can be deleted??? I noticed he's saved the pictures to his camera roll also - presumably for quick access. I have no idea if they have met - I can't think straight at the moment it feels like everything is in slow motion

My husband NEVER leaves his phone at home so I suspect this was a mistake. I've currently packed all his bags and I am just about to post the pictures of my "friend" on Facebook with a tag saying "you are welcome to him"

I don't know what to do

What a horrible situation shame on both of them and her husband for turning a blind eye. Flowers

BitOutOfPractice · 28/09/2016 15:59

He's just going to deny it all isn't he?

SarcasmMode · 28/09/2016 16:00

Anyway I hope your P has told you the truth.

I'm sorry you have nobody to talk to IRL.

Feel free to PM me if you want to add me on FB to have someone to talk to online.

MiddleClassProblem · 28/09/2016 16:00

He can't deny it, just pass the blame at best but I think OP sonnds string enough to not fall for his shit

mysistersimone · 28/09/2016 16:00

I really feel for you, you don't deserve this Flowers

ClopySow · 28/09/2016 16:02

Stop with the "slack" thing. It's vile and misogynistic.

Sorry OP, don't mean to derail. Sorry you're having a shitty time.

CheshireChat · 28/09/2016 16:03

If the husband is not the main carer he might be worried he won't get to see his children without a fight. Or is unhappy that through no fault of his own he'll only see them at weekends.

Champagneformyrealfriends · 28/09/2016 16:03

Clopy I second that.

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 28/09/2016 16:04

Bloody hell. I thought this thread was going to be do I dare say light hearted.
You poor thing. No wonder you're sickened. You've been betrayed by the 2 people who you should trust the most in the world.

The bit that's getting me is. "Is she in bed yet.". SHE!!! Is the mother of children. Referring to you as SHE like you're a nothing.
(((((((((((((((())))))))))))))))))Flowers

SestraClone · 28/09/2016 16:05

That wasn't her husband replying to you, it was her.

hellsbellsmelons · 28/09/2016 16:07

Jeez-whizz
What an absolute nightmare for you.
I try to blame OW but dear lord, she's a feckin' bitch.
I hope you are getting some space right now.
Flowers for you.
This must be pure hell!

nilbyname · 28/09/2016 16:07

Whoa!

hellsbellsmelons · 28/09/2016 16:09

I try NOT to blame OW!!

Babydontcry · 28/09/2016 16:09

I can't imagine what your going through, I'm guessing your silence means he has come home, I'm thinking of you xFlowers

MitzyLeFrouf · 28/09/2016 16:10

Well I'd certainly blame the OW (as well as my husband) if she was my best bloody friend of 27 years!

OnionKnight · 28/09/2016 16:11

hellsbellsmelons why don't you blame the OW?

PollyPerky · 28/09/2016 16:11

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this (I don't have time to read 20 pages) but...

is it possible that the OW (for want of a better word) has seen this on MN?
She could be a MNetter and told the OP's DH what was going on...

or she could have friends on MN who have tipped her off.

Worth thinking about- anyone could be reading this and the OP has given quite a lot of info away.

ammature · 28/09/2016 16:11

Hope you're ok OP (flowers)

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 28/09/2016 16:11

I just want to hurt them in the way they've hurt me.
Of course you do. You wouldn't be Normal if you didn't, but. The best revenge is moving on which you will do, and being happy. Let the 2 of them fuck off together, but If she thinks she's in for a cushy ride. I'm afraid she's highly mistaken. If the prick will do that to the mummy of his little ones. He'll have no qualms about doing it to some slag, and to that to her friend of 27 years. She is a SLAG., karma deals with the revenge and she'll get them sooner or later.

MiddleClassProblem · 28/09/2016 16:11

Lol I think people might read your typo correction as a stand alone comment hells

MiddleClassProblem · 28/09/2016 16:12

Although I tend to just blame everyone

Tryingtostayyoung · 28/09/2016 16:12

Shitty situation OP. Hope your ok. You may not have loads of friends in RL but we're all here to support you and hold your hand Flowers

witchywoohoo · 28/09/2016 16:13

I agree Derek. The guy is maybe just doing what he needs to do to make sure that his kids are not affected by their mother's behaviour. That's his choice to make and he has no duty to tell OP.

MitzyLeFrouf · 28/09/2016 16:13

'The best revenge is moving on which you will do, and being happy.'

Well yes. But not on Day 1!
