Cheating husband

Hey everyone. Need to vent/advice. I've just caught my husband cheating for just short of 18 months. I'm his second wife (if that matters) and have just had my first baby, his 6th 11 weeks ago and he's been trying for another with me and I'm just so angry. I'm just seeing red and want to cry but don't want him to know I've caught him just yet, or maybe at all, I don't know, I'm not thinking straight.

His other 5 were all with his ex in fairness.

A man who is trying to get you pregnant 11 weeks postpartum is trying to trap you. Run!

girl run. and don’t look back

Some people stay because they accept this. He’s been unfaithful for the entirety of your marriage. If you want to ignore that, it’s your right, but he will do this probably forever.

The other one accepted that while being w her got married to you and is having kids w u? Or he plays parallel families

@Sophia No, I met him a year after him and his ex wife divorced, sorry if that wasn't clear

No but the one of the 18 months affair

@Sophia No, it's he's been multiple people but started 18 months ago. I found his "dating" profile chats. I'm absolutely f-ing raging inside, I want to commit so many self destructive behaviours rn and all I can do is look at my baby and know that I can't do any of it because I don't want to lose my baby, he's legit the only good thing in my life rn 😭

If he’s been cheating for that long he’s not going to stop. He was also cheating on his previous wife so he’s showing you he’ll never change. Run. You’re never going to be happy knowing he’s doing that and if he’s trying to get you pregnant again so soon who knows what kind of cooties he’s giving you. Get tested and leave with that baby. He has enough kids

It's not quite as simple as leave with the baby. Damn it, I wish it was. And before all of this happened, it was a joint decision to try for another as my consultant told me whilst pregnant if I wanted more than 1 child, I had a small window in which to try again after delivering my first. I moved to be with this man and rn his brother has my car because it broke down so I don't have a whole lot of options. I wish I did but I don't and I'm hurting so much 😭

Sorry for the long reply 😣

Confront him it will make you feel better

Avatar

Contact the other woman, do you have her number? Contact her and get ALL the info you want before confronting. But definitely do not hold it in it makes it worse

Avatar

Forgive quickly, tell him you forgive him so God will forgive you. The longer you hold on to anger the harder it is to forgive. Forgive before it’s too late. But still confront him. And I would leave!

Avatar

If you’re not gonna say anything, make a secret escape plan. And PSA if you have proof of the cheating you can get out the Marriage and he won’t get any money

Avatar

I would plan a secret escape. Get on the welfare that helps moms(if you don’t have a job) so you can have an income. If you have a job even better. Get the car fixed, start saving money, collect evidence. The Bible says if one of caught cheating divorce is justified

He's got this "dating" profile. There's too many to contact, I don't know if he's actually met with any of them either and I've logged into it from my phone and taken like 50 screenshots but he's brought me up in some of it making it look like I'm part of it so don't know if it'll be taken seriously as evidence

Avatar

Wow he’s weird for saying that you’re apart of it… he’s a creep

Avatar

You need to get into his phone

Avatar

Yeah, tell me about it. In some of the chats it's like he's mentally pimping me out and to people that are older than my parents 🤮🤢🤮 I'm not sure which ones I'm more hurt by.

Avatar

He seems like a weirdo. Well blessings to you. I’ll pray for you.

Avatar

Thank you, you're too kind. I really appreciate it!

Avatar

Save screenshots, if you confront him secretly record the confrontation, if there’s any other evidence use that in court too.

I don’t understand why you saw the he was divorced with 5 kids and thought that it would be a good idea. However, be glad you only have 1 kid with him and leave. People don’t change.

Is this normal?

Is it just my husband that does this? He is able to work from home via his computer and in the mornings and evenings he is on there doing his job. When he is done for the day he tends to stay in the room and either play video games or watch something. He will occasionally come out and play with the girls for a few minutes and that’s it but when I really need him he says he is busy. My daughters are both 1 year old now and I am just wondering how much involvement should he have with them now?
Idk if this is the norm or not…..

Saying NO to buying toys etc

5 year old is getting really envious of others. He is obsessed with items that other kids have at school. I am pestered daily to buy these things in a different style when we already have 3 others. I have seen parents just buying stuff their kid likes which I don't necessarily agree with even when i can afford it. How do you deal with it?

Tablet for kids

Alright don’t need any negative Nancy’s telling me not to get my 2yo a tablet so if that’s what your gunna do please don’t participate in my poll.

We’re about to move cross country 3+ day trip and my 2yo and 9m hate the car I’m talking scream their heads off till they are out of their seats. We’ve already changed car seats and it didn’t help so I’d like to at least have one entertained and sit next to baby and try and distract her or put her to sleep. Our new car has tvs but since they are rear faced my 2yo can’t see it.

Debating getting her a tablet or dvd player right now on long car rides I end up giving her my phone because I get so overwhelmed sitting in between both of them screaming and crying.

And yes I do bring different toys I bring snacks I play songs try to distract her other ways but for the sake of not losing my mind on this move I think this is best.

-A very overwhelmed and anxious to move mama 😓

Daycare?

Thoughts on daycare?? Truly, I am SCARED to be leaving my kid for daycare. I literally do not trust anyone, not even family (they haven’t given me a reason it’s just trust issues on my end, you never know). He’s turning 3 and I’ve been a sahm the whole time but tbh my man doesn’t make enough for us to move out somewhere more calm . We live in a ‘not so safe’ area in LA and I’m just not used to living here so I just want us to give my son a better life and in order to speed up the process I would have to work.. I do lashes at home and I’d be open to take new clients so I wouldn’t have to look for work but I’m just scared to lose my license 😭
