Well it’s not really an ‘I think’ really, I just have

There was an unfamiliar beeping coming from the coat/shoe cupboard so I went in to investigate and found a phone in DPs coat, a cheap little Nokia with just one contact - a woman’s name

I am home alone with 4 kids trying not to cry but honestly I could throw up right now
Wtf

Hi, another one here to virtually hold your hand. I can only imagine how you're feeling, but my god you've been amazing so far, I know I couldn't have behaved so dignified.

I've got everything crossed for you that this is some (believable) huge misunderstanding. Best of luck, and I hope you get the honesty and respect you so deserve, for you and your children x

amilosingitor · 04/08/2018 21:06

Oh god I'm thinking of you op, I don't know how you're held it together x

Dannygirl · 04/08/2018 21:08

Thinking of you, it’s a shit situation as I know from experience too. Definitely be prepared for him to deny and minimise and definitely let him do all the talking. Good luck OP xxxx

Flowers for you Fucky

3girlmama · 04/08/2018 21:11

I think you're probably having the talk worth him. But just in case you're not yet:

A rare few do tell the truth. Most don't. Most Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim Order ( DARVO)

If he does tell you, it's likely that he'll minimise.

He'll have been living in the cake eating paradise where cheaters never get caught and will have avoided thinking about the consequences of getting found out.

Also be prepared for him to be cruel / lash out and blame you in some way. It's part of the script.

Another thing he may do is cry to stop you asking questions and to make you look after him

Both of these are ways to make himself the victim and to try to get your to fix things for him.

Don't play into that game. Don't comfort him and don't defend yourself. Bring him back to the subject.

Fantastic advice, Wrybread.

Thanks
ImNotAFlower · 04/08/2018 21:42

I have just caught up. Good luck @FuckyDuzz. I hope there is a simple explanation 💐💐

Thanks
Jupiter9 · 04/08/2018 21:44

I hope it goes well

raisinsarenottheonlyfruit · 04/08/2018 21:45

Good luck. Be prepared, he may well deny everything. That's why people "Facebook stalk people and things like that" - it's to get the truth as cheaters often follow the script.

He'll likely tell you the minimum he thinks he can get away with.

hubblebubbletoiltrouble · 04/08/2018 21:54
