OT OH has left

casinogirl, 8 January, 2010 at 20:34 Posted on Planning 0 19

I am sorry to post this, I just dont have anyone else to tell.

To cut a long story short last year OH was getting friendly with a girl from work, last June I found an email telling her he was in a meeting in her office and if she was free it would be great if she wanted to do something, and they arranged drinks after work (we live in kent and this would have been in manchester) I went mad, he stormed out, we sorted it out, she text a couple of times and he agreed it need to be kept as work

Tonight I find that they have been texting and she is saved as a different name in his phone. I talk to him about this, he goes nuts, screaming at me telling me i have invaded his privacy (his phone went off and I just picked it up, I have done this a hundred times before) he booked a hotel and has gone.

I am sat here in tears, why did he react that way if nothing was going on, why am I feeling bad wishing i'd just ignored it, I'm sorry to post this here. We are surposed to be getting married in May, I just dont know what to do.

Sara

    Is there a friend, bridesmaid or someone that can come round to be with you?

    I think you need to speak to your OH (ok mybe not right now if he's that angry). If you pick up his phone all the time, you've not done anything wrong, it's not like you were going through his stuff looking for texts.

    As you said, it seems like a strong reaction, but saying that, he was maybe just feeling accused and has overreacted.

    Did you read the message? Did it sound sinister? Maybe try and call or even text him later after he's had a chance to cool off and tell him you both need to talk about this xx

    If he did 'nothing wrong' then why is he hiding her name under a different one? Was it a male name by any chance?

    sorry love, but it would seem he's not being totally honest with you. His anger is his guilt I reckon.....

    let him stew for a few days, he cant stay in a hotel forever. Dont keep this to yourself though, tell your parents or best friend whats happened.

    hugs x

    Sorry to read this.

    Perhaps give him some time alone tonight and then text him tomorrow to say you need to talk about things.

    I know it's difficult not to jump to conclusions about why he has put her under a different name etc, it may be that there is nothing more to their relationship than friendship and he thought that by hiding the friendship it would hurt you less. Ignorance is bliss and all that. BTW, am not defending him; just trying to give you a different perspective. I have a friend going through something similar and this is what she thinks her H has done - almost like he has tried to protect her but unintentionally makes things seem 10 times worse.

    Also, it does seem like a strong reaction if you often do something like pick his phone up innocently so do you think he could feel like you're checking up on him?

    Is there anyone you can call to come and stay with you tonight?

    I really dont now what else to add. I agree with what teehee has said, and I know it's probably not what you want to hear, but better you found this out today than nearer to or after the wedding. I am also in agreement with those who have said you should talk to someone. Hope you get this sorted ?

    I dont know what else to say that the others havent said but didnt want to not reply to you.

    I cant imagine how you must be feeling but like Zippy says better to know now than after wedding.

    I wouldnt text him tho i would wait until the morning and ring him....so much better to talk as with texts can interpret things totally different to how they are meant,

    Big hugs to you x

    The others have probably said everything I would have so just wanted to say hopefully you get everything sorted out.

    Let him sleep on it and contact him in the morning and sit down to discuss everything.

    ?Really sorry to hear this...it doesnt sound like he is being honest & personally putting a name in his phone as a cover up really doesnt sound good to me. Personally I would make sure you have friends/family around you to comfort you & maybe text him as suggested and say you need to talk. I would say he would have to have a really good explanation for all of it, as it does sound like a guilty reaction. You are not at fault in any way, it wasnt as if you were looking for this, you just answered the phone for him as you would normally do if it rang when he wasnt there. He needs to be totally honest with you & make sure you have no doubts in your mind. Take Care XX

    Oh honey, this is something that really does need to be talked about once you have both had time to think and calm down, he has some explaining to do definately and you will get nowhere if you cant talk about this without getting angry (although you are more than entitled to be!!) with each other you dont want to make any rash descisions just now. x x x x

    I'm so sorry to hear that! Didn't want to R&R but I agree with Teehee, it does seem like he's acting guilty. Hopefully you get a chance to speak to him about it.?

    Thanks you all so much for your kind words and support.

    He has text/left VM to say he wants to come home and talk, but i'm just not ready right now so will leave it until tomorrow.

    I just really need to try and eat, get some sleep and stop crying!

    Thank you all again it means so much to me.
