Some of u may not be familiar with my situtaion
Have been separated from ex for 20mths now. We were married for 13yrs. He recently went out of the country on holiday, all by himself. Leaving me and 3 dc's.

My eldest had his fone snatched off him by a boy quite close to home, so as exh was leaving to go on hols. He said dc1 could use his fone while hes away.

A couple of days later a txt arrives from a flirty chat line asking him to call them. Exact wording is 'Nicola- tight MILF with firm and toned body ready to talk and txt naughty anytime on........'

Shocked and upset as i was i stayed quiet. Hes been gone 2 wks and received 2 further txts of the same nature.
Finally did mention them a couple of days ago when he rang to spk to dc's. At which he just became very angry and didnt understand why they were being received now after hes gone and not whilst he was here.

Have been checking his online fone bills and there have been calls to chat lines and subscription of explicit online tv channels.

If he is your ex it is absolutely none of your business.

Allalone0 · 04/03/2011 23:32

True, but before he left and also whilst hes been gone has been saying how he wants us to get back together again. (without asking what i want)

Sorry, Allalone0, I'm not familiar with your back-story either, so atm I'm agreeing with FannyFifer; it's none of your business.

I do know that DS1 managed to sign up for all sorts of credit-sapping "sexual" services (mostly involving over-charged texts) when he was about 13. It may be possible this happened to your ex?

He shouldn't have lent the phone if he knew these messages would arrive; it's perfectly possible he didn't.

He is your ex. No longer any of your business.

I know a lot little about this kind of text service. Your XP may well not have known the texts were likely to arrive as he may have not used the particular service for a while. What could very easily have happened is that the service provider was doing a promotion eg trying to tempt previous customers back in: it's not illegal to send adult spam to someone who has previously subscribed to such a service.

Mind you, as others have said, it isn;t your business if he wants to txtwank anyway, it's just unfortunate that your DS got a shock.
