I wish that I had trusted my gut 5 years ago when I first suspected something was wrong. Maybe I wouldn't be in this awful place...

Thank You!! I needed this. You know that Denney's commercial where the person gets hit upside the head with the skillet? Thanks for being the skillet. Actually, this whole site has pretty much been that skillet. Kinda makes me feel like an idiot to need the skillet, though.

I know what I would have done if I were the WS and wanted to R. Now I know not to expect nothing less than what I would do in that situation.

HOW TRUE,

Problem is when you ask him what he would have done if I would had had the A, he says he never would forgive me... so does that mean i should never forgive you? AGHHH!

Just Found Out is certainly the right place for me to be. I literally found out a few hours ago. I found an unrecognized charge on a credit card which led to the discovering of a membership on an infidelity website.

I haven't said a word; I'm determined to play this smart. I believe you can either borrow your experience or buy it, so I'm looking for experience to borrow from all of you.

I have decided to purchase a web monitoring software to collect as much information as I can. I also need to get a look at the iPhone. What else should I do in these early stages? I just want to find out as much as I can on my own before the confrontation.

Thanks!

Not much you can do with the iPhone, except look at his texts and mobile safari history - both of which can be deleted to cover their tracks.

You can look at who they are calling/texting from AT&T's website - but you won't be able to get the body of the texts.
