I've told him to go!

So, I'm just sitting down with a cuppa & I could really do with a hug. I confronted my husband with the fact that I know he's cheating on me, and I want him out of the house. I was calm, polite and quite matter of fact about - I didn't cry, despite my heart beating so fast as I confronted him. I'm feeling quite proud of myself!
I've walked away to another room to allow him time to think about it!
Would very much appreciate some support from you lovely people out there right now! Thank you :) xxx

How did you find out?

Sparklingwine1 · 09/06/2021 19:58

You got this Thanks

CandyLeBonBon · 09/06/2021 19:58

Well done you Queen! I only wish I'd been as serene when I did the same. I salute you Thanks

RickOShay · 09/06/2021 20:00

You should feel so proud of yourself. It’s him not you.
Do you fancy a caramel twix?

Anotherlovelybitofsquirrel · 09/06/2021 20:01

@something2say ah you're lovely Smile

All here for you OP ThanksWineCake

MadMadMadamMim · 09/06/2021 20:04

Well done! I'll bring the biscuits. You sound like you handled it with dignity.

If the arsehole comes in to say anything just tell him there's nothing more to be said, is there? My solicitor will deal with it for me.

Blueskytoday06 · 09/06/2021 20:04

Hats off to you OP I can only dream of this strength. When it happened to me I was absolute wet blanket. You are awesome 👏🏻

JamieFrasersSassenach · 09/06/2021 20:06

@MiaMummaCat well done - you're awesome, and worth so much more than that cheating rat! You have your dignity and a lot of support from all of us vipers here! Have a Biscuit to go with your tea

BlueButtercups · 09/06/2021 20:07

Hand hold from me

Dontknowwhyidoit · 09/06/2021 20:13

Sending hugs 🤗

Pegsonstrings · 09/06/2021 20:16

That was very brave. I remember doing the same almost two years ago. Heart in throat and feeling enormous relief.

inigomontoyahwillcox · 09/06/2021 20:21

You rock.

Shove over - I've brought crisps and a nice chilled (in honour of your super cool management of the situation) bottle of Sancerre.

MsDogLady · 09/06/2021 20:23

Kudos for taking action, Mia! I assume this is his online gaming ‘friend.’ I commented on your other thread about them.

I really admire your taking definitive action. Stick to your guns if he tries to manipulate you. Keep updating us. Flowers

Treacletoots · 09/06/2021 20:24

I did the same OP. Well done! Admittedly mine didn't leave for a couple of weeks, so I had to ask him every night to leave but he did eventually go.

Amdone123 · 09/06/2021 20:36

Well done, op, that can't have been easy. You kept your dignity, a class act you are.
Cheers to your future!

Anotheruser02 · 09/06/2021 20:38

Well done. Wine

PixieDust28 · 09/06/2021 20:40

Well done, OP.
I'm assuming he didn't have much to say for his cheating arse.

MiaMummaCat · 09/06/2021 20:45

Oh you guys! Thank you so much for you support - genuinely helping me :). I feel so much better now, my heart rate has returned to normal, I've drunk my cuppa & have a cat snuggled on my lap (she always knows when I'm not feeling great!).
So I did confront him quite a while ago, but he insisted the "lady" was a good friend (as was her husband - yeah right!).
However, I overheard one of his phone calls with her when he thought I wasn't home :0, he was consoling her after her husband had left her.

I then deliberately listened in to a conversation where it was very obvious that he had had "sexual relations" with her.
I've gone through the hurt & anger stages and I just want rid of him now!
Thank you all so much xxxxx
