Since our 2 years marriage, we had a boy baby and we all love him very much. We wanted to have a happy family so we must earn lot of money for your baby's sake. Few month ago, i started to realised why my husband keep staying home late even didn't went home too. I probe him and this was the first time that he yelled at me, he started to change to another person which i do not know! I felt so frustrated and helpless. I suspect that he got an affair with one of his staff. It just my suspect and no evidence couldn't jump to the conclusion what if not true. Hi ALL, what should i do? Could someone advice me, please?

Quarrel among loved ones are natural thing as long as you can control yourself. Maybe your husband are over stressed with workload or having problems else where. How can you suspect him of having affair when you dont have any proof. He will denied it if you asked him. When his mood is better and have cooled down - asked him nicely. Sit down and have a heart to heart talk - discussed about your problems. Try to resolve them - think of your baby. Good luck

I agree with you lavender. When I was still working and my husband is the one at home taking care of our baby, I used to have work problems that I really can't share with my husband or sometimes, I worry too much financially but I can't talk to my husband because I don't know, I just don't trust him that enough then that he will be able to sort or figure out our financial problems since I am the one who was working. But when the right timing came and I got to talk to him, he made sense and we actually talked about things I did not think we were able to talk without quarreling. Try to be positive. Sometimes jealousy and suspicions cloud the way we think and all we think are negative things. It's really harder working out there so you must also consider his situation. Shower him with your usual care and affection instead of nagging.

Hi there Janice! It's pretty normal to be suspicious especially when the person you love changes dramatically. I think that worrying non-stop will not help. It's time to have a heart-to-heart talk to him. Do not accuse. Ask. First, tell him that you two need to talk calmly, without accusations and yelling. Tell him exactly how you feel and tell him that you will appreciate his honesty. Since you have no proof except for the fact that he stays out late, you can ask him for explanation for that. Then, believe him. You don't have any way of knowing if it's true. Unless you will invade his privacy which is a big no!, for me at least. I believe that if ever he is having an affair, you will know, eventually. I hope that having the "talk" will resolve the problem.

Maybe he yelled because of the way you asked the questions? You can suspect but you can't confront him if you have no proof. The best thing to do is talk to him when he is in a better mood. Ask him why he comes home late or does not come home at all. Tell him firmly that it IS your right to know because you are his wife. It can be difficult but this is the only solution I can think of. he will never admit too, unless you hire an investigator to watch him. And I'm sure he wouldn't like that either.

As you mentioned, you and your husband must earn lot of money..how are you going to do that? Could it that your husband feel a lot of pressure and just taking a breather by staying out later then normal? Could it that your husband is trying to find ways to earn more money, maybe by meeting with friends or potentials which could help him. The reason he yelled at you might be due to the stress he is facing. Did you reflect how you probe him, maybe the manner it is handled resulted in the outcome.

Maybe he's frustrated about money. My husband prefers to stay out late because it is boring at home. Ask him if he is having an affair. I think you have valid reasons to ask.

well i think.. as a woman and as a wife too.. before i jump to a conclusion that my husband is having an affair with anyone.. we are going to have a very serious conversation first.. i will ask his friends maybe if i felt that he is not tellin' the truth.. i will make him realize that if he cheated on me, i will tell him all the posibilities that may happen to our life and to our baby's life.. simple procedure but may help to solve some problems.. your man will realize that all if he really cares for you and love both of you, your baby and you honey.. hope that you can solve your problems.. hope that i can help..:)

This is a complicated situation. I am not sure how to react if I were you. But I will try my best to find a way so that maybe you can use it. I had a friend whose husband is like this. He was a good husband, but he can easily fall in love with another woman just like that. To him, a woman is like changing clothes. When he saw a prettier one, he would want the prettier one and he will forget the one he already have. But usually this type of husband is only playing a fool outside the house. When something bad happens to him, he will crawl back to you and begging for your mercy. So it is up to you whether you want to accept him or not. I don't know how husband, so I couldn't say anything. But I suggest that you really ask yourself what you should do. Sometimes a man takes advantage of his wife because he thinks his wife is so slow and doesn't have any intelligence and courage to do anything. This makes a husband go bored and search outside for more adventure. If this is the case, make a change in your life and make sure you meet up to his expectation. Show him that you are intelligent and brave enough to do anything. He will look up on you and respect you, and it is not impossible if he immediately forget about his new lover. I hope this helps. Take care.

My husband and I just got married last January after being boyfriend and girlfriend for more than a year. I can say that we have our ups and downs. Disagreements cannot be avoided. Sometimes I get so irritated with my husband because of little things but as time went by, we got along better. Now that we have a son, our quarrellings were lessened and I hope that things would become better and better for our family.

it is normal for couples to have misunderstandings. And it is always normal to become suspicious especially if you feel your husband has changed. I suggest , ask him if you could talk and discuss whatever problems you have. always be calm and make sure you think first before you speak. you might be saying things that you will regret afterwards. Listen to his explanations and then let him listen to you after that. Give your reasons, tell him why you got hurt . Hope everything will be alright with you.

The first two years of marriage is the stage of adjustment with each other, you will discover new attitudes from your partner in which it wasn't there before. Just be a good wife always and show to him that if he loses you it's his loss.

Janice. First of all I request you "Don't jump into any conclusions". That will make the situation worse. You have to understand a basic thing about the Human being.That is all are not same every time.Everyones mood changes anytime. And I think you have to find out the real reason behind this change.Don't worry , there is no problems in relations in this world which can't be solved with proper communication. Ask him whether he has a change in the attittude(May be your illusion!).And tell him openely that you feel a change in his attittude and tell him that you are very dipressed.I think that will solve the problem. If you find the problem still grow , you can find anyone in the family or firends for a help.Three heads are better than one! Wish you a happy life!

Well i think its a pretty sensitive issue and your in a tangle,it can be either too early doubting him and also it could be a fatal one and could even cost your life in case if he does have one.first be normal and friendly and most importantly have patience while talking and never ask him too many questions in a doubtful manner always have a smile on your face it always does wonders this in fact could reduce lot of his work stress and he would be normal with you,even after that if he still continues to avoid you then its better that you could seek private detective agency to know about him but do not tell them to enquire but rather ask them to trace his ways or actions then carry on with necessary steps only in case of urgency(incidences like this do tend to happen so be cautious about men in some ways or not)
