I think this is cheating am I over reacting?

My husband is an avid chatter on Pal talk and for the last few weeks he will get calls from people and I will say whose that and he says somebody I work with. Well yesterday the phone rang and I looked at the number and decided to open the text message and there was a message that said Hi, Honey what are you up to? Since I pay all the bills I decided to check the number of times this person has called and there were quite a few including conversations that took place over 27 mins.
Am I insane or has this not a form of cheating?

Get his butt off the computer and out in the work force. He sounds like he needs to quit laying and start being a man.

No, "You" are not insane, he is cheating on you, maybe not physically yet but mentally he has crossed the line

Hmmm....I smell a rat here.

This has "cheating" written all over it.

it sure is and you should confront him about it before it goes any further

this is new ground for couples, i think. all this internet, chatting and texting. it requires each couple to define the boundries. to me, if you wouldnt do it with your mate beside you, it isnt right.


bradxschuman
Its at least a form of lying.

Nope.

Trust your instincts.

Your instincts are always right. And it does not matter whether he is cheating or not - what matters is that it bothers you. As your husband, he should be showing respect to your concerns about this.

But to be fair, you must be clear with him what bugs you and why. And then what he can do to earn your trust back.

There is no reason for him to be chatting with women!!! To me, yes cheating. How would he feel if you were chatting with men, ask him.

emotional cheating. my hubby did it to me and we are now getting divorced. he was talking to her 5-7 times a day including holidays. supposedly about "her problems". sit him down and tell him that this crap needs to stop. you might also want to call her, don't be rude, just make sure that she knows that he's married. she might not know.


OK Faith
Oh holy cow! That same thing happened to me and YES it is cheating. Maybe not physical but certainly emotional which can be just as damaging. After I did some investigation to the phone calls I discovered there was more to it....like lunches and sweet flirty emails. It killed me. He didn't have to sleep with her. Things were never the same. Stop it before it gets any worse (if it hasn't already). I'm sorry.

Definitely not good!! Ask your hubby if you are allowed to do the same: chat, get some guys to talk with on the phone, etc. I bet he would not like it or tolerate it, so why should you?

Cheating is a hard word to define and it is different for different people, but if you are not comfortable with it, then he should honor that.

This is not a "form" of cheating. Your husband is cheating. There's no way I would tolerate this. I would track his every move. Collect your data and then confront him. Forbid him from doing Pal talk (not sure what this even is - but can't be good - he should be talking to his wife, not a "pal")


veroncia L
Yes it is a form of cheating, He supose to be loyal to you. All needs are supose come from you, and that goes both ways.


Krissy
Absolutely not! Would he be ok if you were doing the same to him? You have a reason why you feel this way...don't feel guilty.

if he's lying, he's hiding something! he may not be physically cheating but from the texts and lies i would say it's at least an emotional affair. i would confront him! best of luck

I have seen TV series that say that there is a new form of cheating. Even though he is not doing anything physically he is cheating with you on the internet and is working with his relationship with those he has online and not with you. IT will turn into a big problema if it is not corrected.


Dezi G.
yes i believe this is cheating. Hi honey. that's not just a friendly nick name. i would definitely talk to him about that. more then a 15 min conversation is plenty of enough time to "chat" no husband should have a lengthy conversation with a woman calling him honey other then his mother or his wife.


chik7896
Not at all are you insane. I would definately print the bill and show it to him and DEMAND a response from him. It might just be talking now, but whose to say it can't lead to more. Maybe it is just innocent flirting but I still don't think another woman should be calling your husband "honey"!

Something is going on and you need to find out what it is. That message is awfully friendly to a married man.

I think you are right to be mad and now is the time to calmly confront your man about these calls. I wonder how he'd feel if you were talking to other guys for a long period of time when your husband was not around. Tell him that he needs to make a choice between playing the single guy role or being a loyal and devoted husband.

No your not insane and your husband has a problem. I hope it isn't pedophilia.

Duh! Yes its cheating and I wouldn't pay that phone bill...I would have it shut off and I would go off on his ***! Oh and I would contact her and put the fear of death into her. Don't threaten though...be careful with that.
