I've just found sex photos from today on his laptop of OW. They made me physically sick. He was supposed to be looking after our DS.

I'm freaking out and I need to calm down before he gets home.

Help.

Stop. Take a deep breath. Are they new? Or from prior to Dday? If they are new I would encourage you to have a hefty bag of his necessities on the front stoop, and tell him he needs to find someplace else to spend the night.

Hang in there. You will get through this.

I am so sorry for your pain, I don't have any great advice but I am sure those much wiser than I will be along shortly to give support. I just wanted you to know you've been heard and are in our thoughts and prayers.

Never apologize for having high standards. People who really want to be in your life will rise up to meet them.

They are from today when he was looking after DS. Google hangouts; so it was real time.

How long do you have til he's home? Do you want him out of the house? Can you call someone to come over? Just take some deep breaths.

Personally, I'd follow tush's advice and tell him to sleep elsewhere tonight. At least give yourself the night to collect yourself. Or, if you really want to, call him and tell him to just keep driving to a hotel, not to bother coming home. You need the space.

Hey there CantSeeInTheDark. It's almost 9 over there. What's going on? Can you get him out of the house? Or do you have a place to go with your DS?

I'm so sorry you had to see that. YUCK!!!

Now I would definitely send him packing. Tonight for sure, forever, eh maybe.

How horribly disrespectful.

NOT. Get angry, it will give you strength.

Take the hard drive or laptop and store it somewhere safe ( friend's house). You may need the evidence in a custody fight. He was having sex while looking after your kid? Neglect.

Gross as they are, they are LEVERAGE - and huge leverage at that!!

Get copies of ALL the pictures - including the time stamps on them. The day may very well come when you're going to need a little cooperation from her and there's NOTHING like having the upper hand with pictures she'd rather DIE than have her family and friends see.

Seriously - swallow the tears for 5 minutes and get copies NOW!!!

Be careful - that 'knight in shining armor' may very well be nothing more than an assclown wrapped in tin foil.

((CSITD))

I second NeverAgain's advice~preserve the evidence, namely the photos with the time records. You are likely to need this in the future, either as a bargaining chip against your WH and OW. It can be argued that a father who would engage in live sexting whilst caring for his son, is exhibiting poor judgment that should be taken into consideration in any custody or access dispute.

I know it hurts, but set aside your pain for a few minutes so that you can protect yourself and your son.

In my opinion, you should kick him out/lock him out and see a lawyer to file tomorrow if you can. You deserve sooooo much better than this shitty treatment! I'm sorry

Sit. Feast on your life.

I'm worried that CantSeeInTheDark, has gone dark. Something's not right here.

Check in when you can CSITD.

I'm so sorry CantSeeInTheDark!!! I can't imagine how hard that would be to see that. What an idiot he is to do that!!! Keep the evidence but kick him out for a night or two so you can get yourself together and plan how you want to move forward. Keep posting and let us know how things are going!!

I'm sorry. I know exactly what you are going through. Like previous posters have said, back up the photos before he destroys it. I know they are disgusting, but you may need them for evidence.

Stay cool and focus on yourself and your child. Keep checking in and posting.
