to Irene

So glad to hear from you, Irene, and know that I am not alone! The worst part is that divorce is the saddest thing for children. I have not decided yet what I am going to do in light of that AND that he doesn't admit! Even when I showed him the credit card statement that clearly showed the two hotels he took his 19 year old to (EX now because I called her and told he was married and she very shocked and apologetic). The hotel bill CLEARLY showed that he took her to a hotel the same day I went to visit my mother in a city close to us. She knew what kind of car he drove, what kind of clothes he always wears, etc, etc. He told he he is 28. He's 32. I think he is honestly a chronic liar! This is my second marriage. I dated a Moroccan guy before I met him and he cheated with ME on his girlfriend. She called me and told me that he was her boyfriend. Can you believe it?

My husband actually told me that he lent his credit card to his friend, Youssef, so HE could cheat on HIS wife. I asked the girl my husband was seeing if she wasn't upset that he didn't take her out for Valentine's Day. We went out to dinner with that same Youssef and his wife. He told her that he got called into work and couldn't take her out. He doesn't work! What a joke! He quit 4 months ago because we WERE planning on moving to Morocco. NOT ANYMORE! Did you know that if I went there, I would need his WRITTEN permission to take my daughter out of the country? It's true! He lies to everyone, I guess. When I called Youssef to check his story, of course he lied. Who knows? He could be cheating, too! My husband never thought I would check his credit card statement. However, he KNOWS I look at his phone records and didn't even CARE that I would see that girl's number repeated every other day since December 24. She told me that he and she met at his night class and since they both had strong opinions about the topic of the class and always spoke up, he apparently liked her and invited her for coffee. It is just one lie after another.

Even when I SHOWED him the evidence (the credit card statement and all the calls), he STILL denied, denied, denied. What I am supposed to do? I guess I'll have to hire a private investigator. Thank the blessed Lord he signed a prenup 3 weeks before our wedding in 2007. He gets none of my inheritance. You know I still love him. It is not easy to stop loving someone that fast. More later.
