Dodgy text

Found a text on DH iphone, not snooping it had popped up on front page.
"How r u? Last night was fun x"

From a number not in his phone.

He was at home with me last night, not sure what to make of it. Wrong number? I haven't mentioned it and he has gone off to work without saying anything about it. If it was me, I would have said, "how weird, I just got a random text " or similar.

If he was at home with you, then I would imagine its a wrong number. But you know how your relationship is. Are things good between you right now? Has he had any opportunity to cheat? why would you even consider this text to mean anything other than a wrong number?

I'd text the number from your phone and say something random like "I'll pick you up around 7?" the other person will reply it's a wrong number and you could ask who it is innocently.....

We've had a difficult time in the last year and have come close to splitting, but I thought things had been better lately. He uses Internet porn, he doesn't know that I know about it, so he can be secretive.

I've kept a note of the number, it is an 02 mobile.

Well if he was at home with you then it is either:

  1. A wrong number, or
  2. A carry on from a conversation about an event the other person was going to or
  3. A carry on from a conversation they were having last night that was "fun".

You can either ask your DH or try and sneak a look at messages to see if there is a previous conversation.

Personally I'd just ask. You weren't snooping, you saw it and you are intrigued.

If I were cheating I would almost certainly not have the full message showing on the front screen. It is very easy to change that.

Think it won't be anything as you know he was with you.

He may not have said anything as he probably thinks if he did, you would be on mumsnet anyway asking if you could believe him :)

I got a very similar text last night, just dodgy spam. Did you make a note of the number? If so do a web search for it. If it's spam you will probably find that other people have received similar texts from the same number.
