Is it a lie?

[40forty]

Could someone who knows LinkedIn well please help.? I think I'm being tricked...

If someone has all the notifications on and every time they get a new connection, they get an email and a message in the linkedin inbox....
Is it then possible that only one connection doesn't have a notification of any sort?

I think my husband is lying.... he basically connected a week ago with his ex (who he actually broke of our engagement for once So the lowest of the low).
So in his connections it said her name and connected a week.ago. There were two other connections the same day and he got emails saying "see so and so's activity for each of the others and has done for every new connection since.

So I am sure he got the email, knew he was connected with her and then deleted the email permanently. He insists he didn't get an email and that maybe it came though in a group one... this is a lie isn't It? Seein g as EVERY other one he's had is individual email.

Please help as feel I'm going mad but my gut is telling me I'm right however I don't know how LinkedIn works.

Thanks

Of course he got the email. Do you check his LinkedIn and his email?

You check?

He gave me his passwords as wanted us to have open access to everything and the email is one we use for a business.

Your husbands ex didn’t nearly break off your engagement, you husbands behaviour did.

You’re checking his emails and obsessing over a LinkedIn connection?

I think you have far, far more pressing problems here OP

Background... the reason he wanted us both to have all access is because he lied and cheated before and then wanted me to believe he was being loyal.
But he's slipped up I think...
Opening and keeping a line of communication open with the person he lied and left me for..

he left you for her before and you took him back? and now you're living with this
Sounds terrible, and yes he would have got the email.

jesus, he lied and cheated with OTHERS? not just this ex?

No only her as far as I know... it was a few years ago but he says he sent an email "acvidently" to a whole group but then she accepted his invitation bit he swears he didn't get a notification email or in the inbox.... but he got them for every other person....

So for a few years you've been living like this. and he's clearly not over her.

Sorry, but I would stop worrying about the details of linked in, it serves no purpose. No one wants to live like this years after an affair. You clearly don't trust him, or you wouldnt still be checking, years later.

What do you actually want to get out of this ? what do you want to happen?

It does though as if he knowingly connected with her and didn't delete and block then it's over....

I hate cheats BUT I am very active on LinkedIn and have to say sometimes I see someone in my connections and wonder how the hell they got there - I know I didn't accept them and received no notification. It's never been an ex but it has happened.

He'd be gone regardless

Is this how you want to live? On edge and checking up on him. No peace of mind. Soaring anxiety and obsessing over what he's doing. It's almost academic whether he's lying or not. You're going to end up rocking in a corner if you carry on like this.

From his excuse it sounds like he's invited everyone in his email contacts in one go, which is possible but the question of the email when she accepted, which he definitely would have got remains and also, there's the question about why he's been emailing her.
