He's arranged to meet his ex tomorrow

I'm absolutely fuming. My husband mumbled something about a job tomorrow morning and was umming and arring about it and I just thought, yep, he's going round the OW house - the one I thought he had dumped 3 years ago. I just have that feeling, you know, when things just don't add up. He was avoiding eye contact and just being shady. I just flaming well know, it's a sixth sense. I am house bound tomorrow as car is knackered, so he knows he can do whatever he likes. I'm buggered if I'm getting the kids on the bus to check if his car is there or not. I just know he is going there. Things just don't add up. He's being shady and now he knows I'm stuck in with the kids, he immediately picked up and is being his jolly fucking self.

I am so bloody upset. Talk me down!!

@wotsittoes

Because it would be nice to catch the bastard out and give her the strength to get shot of him *@Miliao*
Yes!!! I need proof. Definitely need proof. I need to know my radar is correct and I'm being gaslighted. If you have ever been gaslighted, you need to know for your sanity.

I knew I could rely on my mumsnetters
I'm paranoid someone will know me though but I'm south west.

Op be honest though what will you do if you arrange someone to go and he is not there? You can't live like this.

OvariesDeep · 17/09/2021 23:11

I know...

He must know you're suspicious? Would he really be dumb enough to park his car on the mistress's driveway? Would be very easy to hide it round the corner somewhere. If you're going to snoop on him better to check if his car is where he says he is going to.

Onthedunes · 17/09/2021 23:18

Keep it up ladies, at this rate private investigators will be out of buisness.

Love it Grin

ShaneTheThird · 17/09/2021 23:19

I hope you get the outcome that's best for you op. It's a horrible place to be. Flowers

EspressoDoubleShot · 17/09/2021 23:24

I’m commenting on the naïveté and risk of a bunch of mn strangers potentially getting involved in your dysfunctional marriage .suggesting going to the location,offering lifts,,drive by Etc. It’s all a bit daft

And frankly you need to ask, what is someone you don’t know from mn getting out of being over involved in a strangers marriage

Anyway your actual options are
1.You get RL support from friend/family try surreptitiously catch him out

  1. You don’t go to the ow location but try gather other information or evidence to substantiate your belief
OvariesDeep · 17/09/2021 23:41

I'll have to wait. There will be another chance. I can bank on it..

I just can't shrug off my hunch

QueenBee52 · 18/09/2021 01:38

wow... Im invested 😳

Guiltypleasures001 · 18/09/2021 01:45

Does he have sat nav in the car or find my phone on his mobile ?

BlackberryMuncher · 18/09/2021 01:49

@OvariesDeep

I can't ask a friend. I'm too embarrassed
Then you need a new friend!

Take the kids in a taxi, ask the driver to wait while you knock the door, drop the kids off and go home.

Wegobshite · 18/09/2021 01:51

I’m south west OP near Bath if that’s any good let me know 😂

Anordinarymum · 18/09/2021 01:54

Sorry.. being a bit thick here. he's going to another woman's house and he has lied to you, so you know exactly why he is there and you just need to know so you can show him proof? HIM?

You need to pack his stuff in bags and change the locks. You don't need to show him anything.

Seesawmummadaw · 18/09/2021 01:56

Why didn’t you leave 3 years ago when he had an affair?

Grimsknee · 18/09/2021 01:59

It's telling that you refer to this woman as "his ex", as if it had been a valid, legitimate relationship rather than an abject betrayal of his primary relationship, with the mother of his children.

Dear OP, YOU should be "his ex". I hope you can make it so.

RonaldMcDonald · 18/09/2021 02:00

Accept it and stop moaning or don’t and change your circumstances or recognise by being there you are part of the problem which brings you right back to the beginning again

Only three options. Accept, leave, or rinse at repeat at his will

IndecentCakes · 18/09/2021 02:27

I don't quite get it - his ex relationship or someone he had an affair with?

Justilou1 · 18/09/2021 02:28

Can you put your mobile in his car, put it on silent and track it on your laptop?

Justilou1 · 18/09/2021 02:29

Tbh, I’d put the mobile on silent, start the voice recording function and put it under the seat as well.
