Do i believe him?

[wandymum]

DH told me this morning to expect him back late tonight as it's his work annual Summer party.

A colleague of his has just phoned looking for him (he's a workaholic so would usually be at work still at this time of the evening). When I said he was probably on his way to the party - colleague was very confused and said that was last night not tonight.

So I phoned and left a message on DH's mobile. He rang straight back (which is suspicious in itself as he never returns my calls). He says yes there was a party last night but that was for the whole department and there is another one tonight for a select subset.

Do I believe him? Our relationship is pretty crap at the moment but I wouldn't have pinned him as a cheater (can't imagine he'd have the time to be honest as all he ever thinks about is his career).

He was particularly smartly dressed and spent ages 'grooming' this morning too.

Sounds very fishy to me. Why didn't he go to the main event last night? Wouldn't he have said at some stage that there was the annual party, but that he was going to the 'select' one instead? It may not mean that he's cheating, but it sounds like he's up to something. I'd go with your gut feel if I were you.

Well do you believe him wandy? What is your instinct telling you?

Would just point out that OP double-posted and the other thread has more responses.
