My husband told me his ex was talking to him online,the usual stuff like how's the family and how he has been . But when I went to his message archive to see what she said about me, their conversation was about them getting back together behind my back and how if he could change his life she would be in my spot and crap. This happen about 2 weeks ago and I still feel as if I did the day before I read it about him. Now the twist of this situation is We are in Florida and she is in Ohio, so should I not worry about it or is this something I should be aware about. I feel as if he married me just because I was pregnant.

Well, i would confront your husband about it. Maybe print out what you read, and show him this. If he really loves you that much, he will stop talking to his ex, and work things out with you, and ask him why he said all the things he did.

I agree with you there. If you didn't print it out, he could say that you are imagining things or something and then delete the messages. I'd print them out and confront him with it.

First off, what the heck is he doing chatting to his ex-girlfriend on line to begin with? It sounds like he is planning something. And if he isn't he could be just fantasing about what might have been. Either way, I would confront him and ask him what is going on. You deserve much better, than to be left alone worrying about this. At the very least, if you don't want to confront him, confront her. Tell her that you will never let him go and if she wants to blow in the wind for years, be your guest. Then I would go set up my own checking account and don't let him know. After a few months, apply for a loan and pay off on it and get your credit and your credit alone up to par. When you are all set and your own credit is good, give him the option of leaving or staying. Let him know that you are a big girl now and that while you love him, you can live without him if necessary. Never let him screw up your credit. Keep it clean so that he knows he cannot damage you. And yes, I have been there, not exactly like that, but similiar, and I am paying dearly for bad credit and for trusting the wrong man.

Sounds to me like you have a major problem. If it was me, I'd sit down and decide how much I really want him around. If he's unhappy being with you, then it probably isn't going to get much better. Again if it was me, I'd have told him to go back to her and moved on with my life but we're each different. The fact that he lied to you about the chats isn't a good sign for a relationship either. The distance between you two and the ex can always be changed. I think the best thing I can suggest is to sit down, talk to him and let him decide whether he really wants to be with you or if he wants to go back to her. However, if he stays with you...the chatting needs to stop. !!HAPPY EASTER!! **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

Print this chat out if you can. Like right now! Make more than one copy and hide one where he won't find it. Then face him with the other copy and demand to know the truth. If he really is serious, then take the hidden copy to a lawyer and get it over with. It doesn't matter if she's in Ohio. Once the hubby starts going down this road of thinking and behaviour, your marriage is over no matter what he says or how sorry he says he is. Get out before you really get hurt.

I would talk to him about it. seems to me he is not happy or very unsatisfied with his decision. He is not being fair to you one bit. I see it as something to worry about. What if he says "oh I'm taking off for the weekend with my buddy for a guys weekend out" How do you know hes not really going to Ohio? Just my thoughts. I would be concered though. I would NEVER allow my husband to talk to any of his ex girlfriends. Only one because he has a son with her but that is it! Also I would keep a close one on him as well.
