'D'H having affair

Hi. Long time lurker but occasional poster. Have created new account for this because worried name change might go wrong :(

I feel sick. Sicker than I ever have before.
H (I cannot call him DH because I want to kill him) has bought himself a new iPad. Left his old one here switched off and is away with work until Tuesday.
Ds asked to play FIFA on my iPad but I was using it so told him to grab his dad's old one. He handed it back after his few games and I decided to have a flick through photos to see what pics he'd got of the kids.

I found he had screen shotted dozens and dozens of messages from an email conversation with another woman. I immediately wanted to throw up. From what I could gather he's been seeing someone her since February. Maybe before. Disgusting messages between them discussing what they wanted to do to each other. And pictures. Fucking disgusting pictures.
Of his dick that he'd sent her and her boobs she'd sent him.
The next part truly sickens me. There were screen shots of a swinging website where they seem to have an account together. They are 'verifying' him for being a good guy and saying how much they enjoyed the meet with him and her.
I want to curl up and die.
Thought we were happy. We are financially comfortable, enjoy our jobs, spend time with each other, gave a lovely house. I could go on. I thought we were so lucky to have such a nice life together.
My poor beautiful dc's. How could he do this to us.

Well done OP, stay strong x

BitOutOfPractice · 06/10/2014 18:08

Is it wrong that I would LOVE to see his face when he reads that message. I bet he shit himself. And now he is going to find out the horrible consequences of his selfish piggery

OP you are doing BRILLIANTLY. Keep going and take comfort from your mom. We are all here cheering you on Thanks

McBear · 06/10/2014 18:15

Is everything switched off? Does he have no way of contacting you now?

I shocked by this. It's truly terrible but how you're handling it is extremely admirable

Thanks For you

Keepcalmanddrinkwine · 06/10/2014 18:21

Someone, you are amazing. Reading your last couple of posts filled me with admiration. You are one strong woman (even if you don't feel like it).

Vivacia · 06/10/2014 18:43

Bloody hell OP you are one strong person. I'm surprised he even dare cross you.

Hissy · 06/10/2014 18:54

I too salute your power and momentum!

bear in mind that you will need to dig deep when the adrenaline wears off, but we'll be here for you.

he may of course break his way back into the house, as of course he has a right to enter, but you made a stirling point!

keep stong lovely lady!

WitchWay · 06/10/2014 19:29

Blimey! He'll really be crapping himself now! Well done you! Smile

spanky2 · 06/10/2014 19:46

Don't tell the locksmith the reason why you are changing the locks as legally he has the right to access the property. Tell the locksmith that it is because you lost your keys. I found this out as I had to change my locks as I didn't want my bat shit crazy parents to have access to my house anymore. Kaykay, love your suggestion. Someone, you are amazing.

KrevlornswathoftheDeathwokClan · 06/10/2014 19:52

Well done OP, you are doing so well.

Strokethefurrywall · 06/10/2014 20:11

THinking of you OP, what a horrible horrible shock. Well done for staying focused and controlled.

I hope you get some fantastic support in RL from your friends and family, and that you and your children come through this ok. Just take everything one day at a time Thanks

Lambzig · 06/10/2014 20:17

What a horrible shock for you OP. What amazing strength you must have to get all that organised. Amazing. Please take care of yourself.

McBear · 06/10/2014 20:33

I'm concerned that there's not been a reply for a while.

Hope it's not all kicked off.

Here to hold your hand WineThanks

Only1scoop · 06/10/2014 20:40

I think Op was with her parents tonight having a sleep over and her dc are excited....she's probably busy with that....

We are all rooting for you

McBear · 06/10/2014 20:43

Ah! Fingers crossed.

I imagine H knows where the parents live though and is able to get there...

Quitelikely · 06/10/2014 21:27

Respect to you OP. Stay strong!

WhereIsMYJonathanSmith · 06/10/2014 21:33

Wow I am so impressed at your single mindedness, your strength and determination.

Also so sorry that you are going through this.

Hope you and your DC are okay.

ChoochiWoo · 06/10/2014 21:34

Youve done really well op stay strong x

ThisIsSylviaDaisyPouncer · 06/10/2014 21:58

OP hope all is well; when the adrenaline wears off you may feel quite shaky. Here's a hand to hold and a [tea]

Charlesroi · 06/10/2014 22:24

OP - your husband is an amoeba and (although you won't think so) you are well rid of him.
Your friend sounds brilliant, btw.

statementtotheedge · 06/10/2014 22:35

I'm sorry to hear about this OP x
I remember the sick to the tummy feeling too.
You sound like you are coping brilliantly, no contact and heading to family and to seek legal advice sounds perfect x

diggerdigsdogs · 06/10/2014 23:33

Hope you're alright op. Thinking of you

SnotandBothered · 06/10/2014 23:38

I am so sorry that this has happened to you.

But you are fantastic. What a wonderful mother and woman you are.

Don't worry if you wobble later. You are running on adrenalin at the moment and there will be a time when the reality of it all floors you completely and utterly.

BUT when that happens, just look at the pictures, texts and your beautiful DC and KEEP GOING.

stupidlittlegirl · 06/10/2014 23:43

seasavage · 07/10/2014 09:56

I hope you're doing OK today OP.

Zazzles007 · 07/10/2014 10:08

OP I've just read your thread, and seen what an utter twat your H is.

Strength and courage to you, there are going to be some rocky times ahead. Thanks
