This mother was desperate for help after she received a number of gifts, including her sister's contact information listed as "Steve". She also felt drowsy and out of the blue when her "husband" pushed her to increase her insurance policy.
After growing suspicious that her husband was cheating with her sister, a woman married for five years sought help on the Internet.
It is impossible to verify the wild story, which reads like a first chapter in a true crime novel. The tale was posted anonymously on an online forum. The chilling details of the advice request certainly kept thousands of Redditors glued to their screens, especially the last sentences where she expressed her fears for her safety.
Initial clues were an extravagant gift and hushed conversation between her sister's husband and her. She also accidentally heard a call connected to her car via Bluetooth.
Some of the comments were concerned about her safety, while others gave advice on how to catch the husband in his apparent lies.
You can read on to find out what you think about the story and the quick update she made the very next day.
I think my husband has cheated on me with my sister
"Hello guys, as stated in the title, I have a suspicion that my husband and sister of five years are having an affair.
"The first thing I felt was during xmas last year, when my sister was extra excited to give him her gift, I was surprised to see it was a Macbook Pro. I was like... wow, that's a couple of thousand dollars. The next night, I was washing dishes when I heard them muttering in the kitchen. When I came into the room they immediately hushed and looked upset. They then started to do random things like wash dirty dishes. After this, nothing really happened until yesterday. I shrugged it off.
"Yesterday, I was waiting in the car for my husband at Walmart. We really needed a car seat for our child. He made a call as he was leaving and the phone was still connected for a short time to bluetooth. The screen showed the name 'Steve,' but I knew the number. I was shocked to see that it was my sister's number. When he returned, I asked him who he had been on the phone with. He said that it was Devon, his boss.
"I don't want to assume anything, but I really don't know what to think about this. I have been running errands today and I feel like I am on autopilot/numb. How can I confront him about this? How can I be sure I am not just overthinking it?
"I watch lots of true crime where husbands kill their wives to get life insurance. Now I overthink the fact that I just increased my policy a few month ago. My husband pushed me to do this because I apparently make more money and we want to ensure our daughter's care if something happens. I also think too much about the fact that I feel drowsy a lot.
Will really appreciate your input (am I thinking too much?)
A hasty update
The woman replied that it was "a little early for an update" but she was "overwhelmed by all the support and advice I received from you." My husband is coming home soon and I honestly don't have a clue how to explain the puffy eyes.
"I have done a lot of research, but I still need to digest it and plan my next move carefully. I have pretty much accepted that they are cheating, because I have accessed their phone records. To me, this told me everything I needed to. "I'll update you when I can but thank you for your support and advice. Please know that I don't take any of it lightly."
She quickly returns to the True Crime genre.
The woman responded to the commenter by clarifying that paranoia was likely to be the cause of the insurance angle and not plausible.
She wrote: "My husband is a great father who treats me well, does everything I ask of him and takes good care of me. I just can't imagine this happening." "My sister's also a good person so I don’t think that they will kill me, but the life-insurance thing is at the back my mind bothering me." It pays out 1 million dollars in the event of accidental death. "Even today, he noted that I was acting strangely. I can't even look him directly in the eyes.
She added, "My sister is a really good friend of mine, and she takes care of my daughter every day."
She did admit that she was certain of some infidelity. "If my gut feeling is right, I think they will deny it... I'm collecting my thoughts and trying to get evidence or to look through my husbands mobile phone."
Answer:
The majority of commenters thought she was right to be suspicious of an affair, but less sure she had anything in fear about the life insurance policy.
Many Redditors advised her to hire a private detective if she were truly worried about infidelity.
