i am a new user, long time lurker.
This is a long post so please bear with me. I found a simple mobile phone that had slipped between the settee. It wasn't mine, nor my husbands. Opening it, I saw there were text messages between one number only along the lines of 'who is this' ending more recently with 'i am desperate to see you'.
This could only have been from my husband, as we dont get visitors, and just that evening, my husband had fallen asleep on the settee after coming in from work. I am assuming it had fallen out his pocket. I was angry, and barged upstairs showing him the phone. He denied it, saying it was a phone he had found and bought it in.
To cut a very long story short, he denied it completely, and I almost had a mental breakdown as I just don't know or don't want to believe he is having an affair is true. I think my almost mental breakdown came from me knowing I wasn't imagining it to be nothing but being made to believe it was.
We put a plaster on the whole thing, and tried to move past it.
We have school age 3 children together, and are from a very traditional family that doesn't support divorce or drama even. I haven't been able to tell anyone this in real life, so just needed somewhere I could write it to believe it did happen.
Anyway, if you got this far, thank you for reading, any advise is greatly appreciated.
