Husband taking an Uber at strange time

[YoMommasMomma]

I was away from home this weekend with my DD and when we returned I saw an emailed receipt from Uber (my husband uses my laptop to check his email and leaves himself logged on, we are very open with passwords and use each other computer/phone) which showed that he got a taxi from our house to another address about 15 mins away at 12:10am in the morning.

I am concerned as this seems very odd. The questions in my mind are - he has a car so why didn't he drive if he was going to meet a friend? He said he didn't go out that night (sometimes he goes to meet friends for a few drinks when we are away) so why is he lying? Did he have someone over to our house and pay for their cab home? This would be odd if it was a friend as they all drive and why would he pay for their taxi? I am worrying that he had another women over and paid for her cab home.

There was also a half drunk glass of baileys in the kitchen when I returned and it was in a wine glass. He does drink baileys but would usually drink it from a normal glass.

It is all very strange and I know I have to ask him and I am sure there is a reasonable explanation but worried there isn't one.

I also feel so pathetic for even typing this right now. I guess I really just wanted peoples opinions to see if you also think this is suspicious and if you has any ideas for what to do, other than just ask him about it. Thank you.

Can you ask Uber

Have you had a nosy around his social media/internet history? I know some people are staunchly against this. If he has a Gmail account it's a veritable bounty of information that some stupid cheaters are unaware of, or get sloppy deleting. Hope there is a perfectly innocent explanation, but don't let him bamboozle you.

How can there be no ‘4, road name’? That’s really odd.

I'm guessing had a drink, couldn't drive, wanted weed, so got taxi. Does the Uber receipt suggest a one-way journey or a round trip?

So the flat listed on Uber receipt is 'number 4a, road name' and on the land registry list there is '3, road name' and '5,road name' but not 4 or 4a.
Then I would drive there first to check.

Receipt is for a one way trip, I couldn't see another receipt to come back.

I'd be really suspicious, sorry op.

There could be a black of flats on the road, so the address could be Flat 4, 20 Any Road.

Type the road name into Zoopla and it will bring up all the houses on the street. Or use Royal Mail postcode finder, omit the house number and it will list all the properties on the street.

Hi op, hope it goes ok if you speak to him tonight. My friends have turned up at mine drunk a couple of times and I've sent them off to random destinations... other parties, boys they were seeing etc. that was in my early twenties though. I can't think of another viable reason off the top of my head but there could be one.

I think you should say you noticed an Uber email but didn't open it. See if he lies about when it was ordered and where it was going. Maybe order something from amazon or something so the receipt email goes to his account so you have a good excuse to have had a quick glance at the inbox?

If he lies have a ready made excuse to leave the room, smile brightly and get on with something else (oven pinging) and then you can dig further without him having an idea that you are onto him. You don't want to alert him that you are suspicious.

Hopefully he will just make you feel better by giving you justification though xx

Seriously you think he paid for a drug dealers taxi home and gave them a baileys in a wine glass and had a drink with them?

I don't know much about buying drugs but I have to say I don't think your take on what occurs is correct there...

I'd be very suspicious

Do you have access to his phone to check frequent/recent places in google maps?

My first thought was escort! She got taxi over and he booked her one back. Can you see his phone bill?

I'm sorry you feel so worried, that's a horrible feeling

Could the uber be a round trip? To and back from, only the one address listed???
That would be a weed/ whatever purchase.
How much was it? Enough to get there and back?

The fact that the address doesn't exist makes me think that maybe it's a prostitute who doesn't want to give him her real address. So she lives in the block but a different flat.

If you drop the pin on where you want to go on Uber, it approximates the address.

I do this to go home, my address is always different (although on the same street!)

Don't listen to randoms on the internet with their suspicions just ask your husband about it. Surely your relationship can't be that poor that you just can't bring something up to discuss together?

I'd do a bit more investigating before asking him.

He may have a decent explanation

Ask him straight out. No point distressing yourself by not knowing one way or the other.

Why wouldn't you delete the email receipt though or use a new account? No one's that daft.

I'd hang around outside the house tbh

Can you just ask him what he got up to at the W/end in an open ended breezy way?
If there is a reasonable explanation he will volunteer it.

If not then you can ask him if there's anything he wants to tell you about Saturday night?

Well I drove past the address on my way home from the childminders and it's is just a row of houses divided in to flats and I couldn't see the numbers, so haven't learned anything. DH is home now so will see if I am brave enough to ask once Dd in bed
