Cooking for another woman's husband

Need to get this off my chest.

There's a back story so trying to some it up.DH's BF=married female.She hates me.She'd rather I was out of the way.Seems to think DH is hers and encourages problems in our marriage.

Seems to think I'm a neglectful wife,likes to tell me my house is a shithole and my husband hates coming home.

My DH spends far too much time there and stays over.We have had numerous massive arguments about the intimate nature of their relationship,him staying over,dodging his responsibilities at home and hiding there,him oversharing details of our marriage that's no one else's business and her shitty attitude towards me.

Her DH just goes along with whatever she does.I have a sickening suspicion that my her&my DH have also crossed the friendship line.I don't trust her as far as I can chuck her.She walked out on her ex&their kids for her current DH.

The tensions this causes in our relationship resulted in a temporary separation earlier this year.

Hubby stayed there again last night under the pretence of doing some work for them last night/today.He as usual has acted like myself&our kids don't exist for the last 24 hours which is what he does when he's there.Its complete radio silence from him.

Today I've been trying to pin him down about coming home and he won't give me a definitive answer.My Teen DD called her dad as her dad going off like this makes her anxious and asked him when he's coming home and his reply was he's going to have dinner then come home later.

This means that his BF rather than telling him to go home to his family and eat with me is cooking him dinner and encouraging him to loiter.

This has really infuriated me and I snapped and told him that if she's cooking his dinner then why not let her have a few more of my wifely duties like getting to wash his skid marks out of his underwear and swallowing a mouthful of his semen (that's the polite term I didn't use) and I told him that tonight they've both crossed a boundary.

AIBU in expecting him to do the normal thing of coming home from work to his wife for dinner for instead of continuing to leave me alone with our Children in our home whilst ignoring me.

My friends and family think he's a fool who's serving his own selfish needs and I should take the kids and move out as their all fed up with the way he treats his family.

Thanks for reading,it makes me feel better to just let it all out.

cooking him dinner and encouraging him to loiter.

He's not a dog...he's a dickhead. He makes his own choices...what she does to encourage it is by the by.


This with fucking bells on.
Move some money around- Tell him not to come back lick the doors and leave his shit on the front doorstep.
What an absolute turd

For the sake of your sanity and your children's sanity you need to get out of this situation. It is so unfair for all if you, he's selfish and cruel and he'll probably play the victim card as hard as he possibly can (so do be prepared for all sorts of lies about you and possibly your children to surface - some people really are that scummy).

Speak to a lawyer, sort out your finances and get the ball rolling for a divorce, and be prepared for a battle but know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it will all be so much better for you and your children when it's all over and done with. Flowers

Oh and the 'best friend' is also an issue but all the while your husband is allowing this situation to continue she is the least of your worries. Think of her as an irritating parasite that you can't get rid off - like threadworms on steroids.

For all you know the other couple could be swingers so anything goes with them.

I thought this too. I agree with all the PPs who say you should pack all his stuff into bin bags and send them to her house. Don't give up your home for this waste of space, he's already found another home he's comfortable in. You don't deserve this treatment. Tell him he's not welcome home anymore, and don't have him back because his 'friend' will probably get bored with him once she realises he is all hers and you don't want him anymore.

@VenusTiger

DH's BF=married female.

The OP's husband has a best friend, who is a married female.

how have you not knocked them both out OP

They are both the issue, they are both vile
He is doing the dirty, no question
She knows he has a family and is still a low enough bitch to go there, a decent woman would not touch a guy she knows for a fact is married

He's got what he wants. Two women vying for his affections? His ego must be through the roof. Angry

When he returns, tell him he's made his choice and you can't be arsed with him any more, OP. Withdraw all of the services you provide for him such as cooking/laundry etc and tell him to sleep on the sofa or fuck off back to his second home.

So he didn't come home last night?

Oh OP - it's an affair, it really doesn't matter what name they put on it. The relationship with her is his primary one, not the one with you.

Time to call it a day. This marriage has ended. He's ended it.

Do you have anyone in real life you can talk to? Name it, your DH spent last night with another woman.

You don't have to put up with this.

Another woman being a bitch to a fellow woman. Lovely.

OP if you can't ditch him for your own sake do it for your dd. I'm sure you don't want this relationship for her so don't have it for yourself while showing her a crap one.

Honestly fuck the both of them off. He couldn't have made it any more clear where you stand if he'd taken out a billboard down the motorway.

This is affecting your DD. You are mirroring a hugely dysfunctional relationship to her. End it.

He's dating someone.

Are you ok with that? He's clearly enjoying it....

Is her husband in the home?

Bottom line is if he's not home it's because he doesn't wish to be. He's making a choice. He's there because he'd rather be there.

You need to sit down and talk because it does not seem your marriage is in a good place. Blaming this woman is silly. The issue is your marriage. You need to sit down and talk and either find a way forward or split.

But uou being all angry, him avoiding coming home, is never going to work.

Bolt the door and go to bed.
In the unlikely scenario that he isn’t having an affair he’s still extremely disrespectful and unkind to you and the kids.

You need to think to yourself OP that this woman left her own kids for another man... she's one of those 'scum of the earth' types. I've no idea why men put their morals and values aside and get involved with these cretins of the earth that put the needs between their legs above their own children Confused.


You are not one of those people OP. You are morally intact and being taken for a mug. It wouldn't shock me if they're swinging with the husband involved

I'd echo everyone saying change the locks and ring him at her house to let him know not to bother coming home.

They are right and you should listen to them.

If he is not sleeping with her, then he is spreading lies about your life together, about how badly he is treated and that is why she looks at you like that.

Does she even have a husband or is that just something your DH has told you so you don't suspect an affair?? It just sounds so strange.. Everything you've said screams affair IMO!
I have so many questions OP Confused
Have you met her husband?
What the hell is he even doing whilst your husbands gallivanting round there??
Surely her husband thinks this Is just as strange as you do?
Does she come round your house?

Hi everyone,

It's midnight and it's still not home.My DD is 14 and is under cahms.She's still awake and has just vomited.Im furious as he's literally worrying her sick.It breaks my heart when she tells me she's worried that dad might not come home at all.

I have 3 other children too.One has SEN so currently financially I only get carer's allowance.I use to have a well paying part time job I had to give up.Childcare amongst other things was an issue especially as DH wanted the financial benefits of me working but wasn't prepared to be do the legwork of childcare or helping more around the house.Tbh it was really stressful trying to find childcare for every shift and manage the family and household and on the days he did have to provide childcare I'd come home at 6.30pm to find the house trashed and no dinner for the kids.So not financially independent.The house we live in belongs to a family member of his so I can't stay here in the event of a permanent separation.Im pretty much trapped in my situation meaning I can't just pack his bags and change the locks.

It was when I stopped working that he started to spend more and more time away from the home.He seemed to take it as a sign that because I was home constantly he could come and go exactly as he pleases.

And as to the BF's husband;I was led to believe he was there when DH stays over but I've since discovered that the Husband is sometimes on night shifts and it's just the two of them.When I've questioned this my DH told me I'm paranoid.

I'm not allowed to say anything about his relationship with them because he becomes angry and aggressive.He won't have a bad word said about his BF but it's okay for her to put me down.

And the stuff she's said to me has been on the phone/via messenger.The last time I saw her in person she didn't bother to speak to me very much.
