Is it acceptable that my husband is texting a single woman from his school during a month long break 5 times and even texting her at 3 in the morning when he is drunk? And how do I confront him about it? Or should I say nothing?

I would be pretty mad. theres no reason for the middle of the night texting. he should be with you. tell him its you or her. I did this last night and things should change around here. Also ask him how he would like it if the tables were turned

do not get put off with him acting all mad. what nonsense about not trusting him - he is not trustworty full stop. he is just acting all mad to put you off, don't fall for it. you are entitled to question him and well now he knows that you are on to him. he will either be super sly and continue or he will quit. only time will tell. remember this: you did nothing worng and better confront him now, than end up in tears and the divorce courts.

to pinktopaz, well said. makes sense. does your friend not care that this man is married. she works for him and his wife ....not good at all. wonder when his wife will catch that rat and fire the girl too. now that will be justice!!

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

Well I confronted him about it and his excuse was he never said anything bad. Then he followed that up by being mad because I don't trust him and he has never done anything wrong.

No it's not acceptable... But I expect if your fella is like most men he will turn it round on you cause u looked at his phone and it will end up being about that and not about what he's done!!

Before u tell him what u have seen, get a good story about why u looked at his phone!!

Good luck

Umm no, it's not acceptable. Yes, confront him about it asap.

Here's a story I have: a friend of mine started receiving random texts from this guy who was married who was supposidly like her brother. She worked for him and his wife. Personally, I thought it was odd that a married man would be texting her just to talk to her, but I thought to myself, "Whatever, I don't know what the relationship is like and for all I know his wife knows that he does." Fast forward several months later and he's cheating on his wife with this friend of mine.

So yes, confront him asap and find out why he needs to get attention from this coworker.

That is completely unnacceptable...he is obviously somewhat interested in this girl. He is a married man and he should be respectful of his wife (you). I understand calling for business purposes...but texting is a bit too suspicious and OBVIOUS...not only that, but texting her at 3:00 in the morning does not make things look better. That is exremely suspicious. The fact that you mentioned that he also texts her when he is drunk is another reason why there might be something going on...YOU should confront him...or you should do the same to him (haha) but ask him....be like "Excuse me why are you texting this girl? it effing three in the morning." be straight up be mean. Be like is there something going on between you guys and give him all the suspicious evidence. If there is let me know because this is childish shitt and im your wife you need to respect me.

to be honest with you in my opinion if you dont stop it, it will lead to possible cheating.

so act now. maybe its time to reconsider your marriage before it gets worse. I can recall a time one of my partners did the same and i forgave him....but he never changed...i gave him 3 years to change...
