Hi all,

My husband travels a lot for work often travelling for a week at a time but recently has had several early Monday morning meeting which has meant he has left on a Sunday late afternoon. I was at a hens night last night and we stayed the night and it was too far for a cab back. I left the house Saturday, husband waved me off - have fun see you tomorrow ! The B&B we stayed at had no cell reception so I could text him to say we are on our back until about 10:30 when we stopped to get a coffee. By that point phone was really low on charge, I saw 3 messages from him asking if I had a fun night could he call ect ... i quickly messaged back to say all good and had no battery. Got back to the house and he is nowhere to been seen and I had no house keys (as I expected him to be home) by this point I had no battery to call him or check my messages. Friend called him straight to voicemail - very weird. Borrowed a phone charger from my neighbour and low a behold I had a text from him. Ok, well bad news I'm afraid. Don't rush home - I'm at the airport. Realised on Thursday that I was flying today but didn't want to add more upset to your day 😫 - would you complete loose your shit over this ? I had to get a locksmith to get me into the house. He has hardly spoken to me since, thinks I'm overreacting and it's no big deal. That I'm just pissed off that I didn't have my keys. He was being very evasive, would not take a call nor did he answer the hotel phone at 10:40 last night. As he apparently was in the hotel bar ? This isn't stacking up for me ...... am AIBU or him ?

Looking back at the original post I find this all bizarre, to me this looked obvious that something odd is going on, to me it sounds like he took the opportunity to go away for the night last minute cos wifey was away, sorry but been witness to this type of behaviour in friends affairs and that men are crap at covering their tracks/planning ahead to make convincing lies. 😏

Oh do piss off peach dont project your issues onto this poster.

A hidden key or a key box with code to enter it is something perhaps more people should have. It certainly has helped all of us over the years here.

Don't pull
Why are you soooo rude?
Am I the only one that thinks there is more to this? I really sincerely hope there isn't for but on top of extra grooming... I would have alarm bells ringing. What makes you think I've got issues? Please educate me 😂

You said you have been witness to this type of behaviour where it has turned out to be an affair. Therefore you are projecting your worries onto the poster. When honestly I don't see any signs of an affair happening at all and the op has explained why certain things were done.
I think it's awful that when women groom themselves it's fine but if a man does it he is cheating.
