So back story, 5 years ago my husband left me for 6 months was sleeping with multiple women, had girlfriends you name it, I got speaking to one guy after a good few dates I slept with him once, then few weeks later got back with my husband decided to move away fresh start anyway today I receive an Instagram request off the I was speaking to and an Instagram message my husband is that childish that I could believe it's him, it's only got 2 followers, and 30 following no pictures so my question is what would you do? I can't check my husbands phone as he's changed password, and keeps it with him 24/7

Block and delete. If it is him he's fishing to see what you'd do, if it isn't him then you don't want to talk to the guy anyway - either way the answer is block and delete!

Surely you ignore and/or block all contact from ransoms so why is this any different? Seems a stretch to think it’s your DH.

loza12 · 08/02/2024 18:36

Well yeah but I mean how can I see if it is him do I confront him of making a fake account

If you think there's any chance it's your husband, then you don't trust him, and you don't think he trusts you.

Why do you want to be with someone you don't trust and who doesn't trust you?

Block and move on .Games are for children

What is the state of your relationship that your husband isn't open and hones5 with you about his phone.... are you really in the best relationship for you?

thaisweetchill · 09/02/2024 22:37

Try logging in as him, press forgot my password and it'll tell you the start and end of the email address

Block the account. It will give you the option to block any other accounts the user has or makes in future. After blocking go see if your husband is still there. If he's not then he's the user of the blocked account.

Why are you back with him, he sounds like an idiot.

Usernamechange1234 · 10/02/2024 16:32

Imho you have bigger problems that this. It sounds as though he was setting you up to see if you’d potentially ‘cheat’ on him. This can be a typical behaviour of someone cheating themselves and this man has previous.

loza12 · 10/02/2024 18:15

@Usernamechange1234 This!! He was chatting to a girl online two weeks ago... nothing flirty but he has got form of cheating.. like when I showed him the messages he was like what you showing me for but then was all cuddly after me showing him I don't know it's very odd behaviour

Grim.

ClapKissBang · 07/01/2025 12:42

Childish.

You were foolish for getting back with him.

HE DOESN'T RESPECT YOU. I REPEAT, HE DOESN’T RESPECT YOU.

Do you want to spend the rest of your life playing these games?

Girlmom35 · 07/01/2025 13:50

Why on earth did you go back to him?
He's a manipulative compulsive lair. What were you thinking?

Pumpkinpie1 · 07/01/2025 13:59

Why OP didn’t you learn your lesson? Cheaters cheat , you’re mad to waste your life with him

Good god, there's an awful lot of threads today more akin to a couple of adolescent teenagers!
