I’ve just messaged the OWs husband

Found out she’d called my husband again and asked him to set up another email account for them to talk. We’re over
But I’ve just forwarded her husband all their WhatsApp messages and images of her in the shower. Apparently she hadn’t told him the full story and they are starting IVF again shortly.
Im shaking and feel like a bitch, but I want her to hurt (and my stbxh) to hurt like I and my children are

Does your ex know you’ve contacted her husband?

Did you tell you about her contacting him again?

You haven’t been a bitch. They’re both wankers.

Hope you start to heal soon.

Completely right.
I messaged OWs husband and he was glad I did. I'm glad I did.
He deserves to know.

LobotomisedIceSkatingFan · 13/07/2021 11:42

Don't blame you for a minute.

Second the idea of friend requesting him or something to make absolutely certain he sees them.

WhenISnappedAndFarted · 13/07/2021 11:50

I believe the OW's husband deserves to know, I would in his shoes especially before children are brought into it

drpet49 · 13/07/2021 11:53

Ha good for you OP Smile

Fluffycloudland77 · 13/07/2021 11:57

I don’t blame you either.

LanesdownGutted · 13/07/2021 12:00

I was messaged (also by facebook messenger) by the OW's daughter and provided with all the evidence of what was going on. Until that point I had no idea and I'm thankful that someone had the decency to tell me so well done you.

TableFlowerss · 13/07/2021 12:01

Quite right OP. The DH deserves to know what a trans his wife is

TableFlowerss · 13/07/2021 12:01

tramp

LobotomisedIceSkatingFan · 13/07/2021 12:03

I really shouldn't have laughed at that typo, @TableFlowerss. But I did.

sundaydisposition · 13/07/2021 12:04

I agree that the husband has a right to know. Hopefully, it will prevent future children being brought into this mess.

BeeDavis · 13/07/2021 12:05

I fully support this.

AryaStarkWolf · 13/07/2021 12:05

Good for you, hopefully it will save that guy having a baby with the cheating asshole

PurpleFlower1983 · 13/07/2021 12:07

Good for you OP!

LtDansleg · 13/07/2021 12:07

Send him a friend request so he actually sees your messages. I wouldn’t worry about the photos. It’s not like you’ve posted them all online, only sent them back to her husband. I can’t see her going through the embarrassment of making a statement about what she’s done. Do you know what she told her husband before if he didn’t have the full story? Also will they get into trouble at work?

Purpoole · 13/07/2021 12:08

You won’t get any hate here, op. Good on you

FunMcCool · 13/07/2021 12:09

Hope you’re ok op. You did the right thing deleting the images. They weren’t yours to share.

Noshowlomo · 13/07/2021 12:10

Good for you.. has he read them. What is the back story with OW and your husband?

Nachorancho · 13/07/2021 12:12

You must be very angry and upset OP. I feel for you, but in my opinion your anger should be with your (D)H not with this woman. What she has done is wrong but you do not have a "duty" to let her partner know. I seriously would be concerned about his repercussions if he has been lied to and would not want to be the one innocently responsible for causing the OW to be abused. Just my view and I know not shared by many. Telling him in a calm way - via letter or some such manner is better than sending private images and messages

Songoftheseas · 13/07/2021 12:13

God what a vile pair, I’m so sorry. You definitely did the right thing. If it was me I wouldn’t definitely want to know.

Songoftheseas · 13/07/2021 12:13

Would not wouldn’t!

RampantIvy · 13/07/2021 12:15

Ditto sending a friend request so that he sees the message.

peachescariad · 13/07/2021 12:15

Fabulous! massive well done OP
