Start with filing papers with the county. Youā€™re a stay at home mom, and if the house is under both your names then he can leave since heā€™s the one cheating. File for divorce! Get your end covered! If it happened once it will happen again. Call a divorce lawyer and get advice on what to do!

That is so sad. I hope you find some peace soon xx

Wow You were strong enough to make the first step and admit there is a problem and ask for help.
You can do anything you put your mind to, MAMA!!!
A smart womanā€™s advice might be this;
Continue as if youā€™re clueless but continue with your investigations and collect evidence.
Collect a shit ton of evidence.
Go to your bank and close the joint accounts. Before doing so, find a apartment or other living quarters for you and children until thereā€™s can be safe arraignments made to swap kids for visits w dadā€¦
Take what came from the account and hire a lawyer pay them immediately
Reach out to a close friend or family member that has gone through a successful divorce and ask for a referral for a divorce attorney. Do your research before making any moves but have a plan and make a plan to move swiftly when you do so.
Leave him NO time or means to backfire on you or your children.
Leave safe and take what only you and your kids need.
Best of luck to you.
Where your headed is hard.
But if youre a special needs Mama and have helped raise your own children and dedicated your time and focus on them thereā€™s nothing thatā€™s holding you back from living whatever life you choose here forward.

Did you confront his a**? If not thatā€™s your first step. See what he has to say, then go for alimony and child support.

Well you said he on the apps setting up dates. Has he actually persue anyā€¦ and I think men go thru a mid life crisis. Idk have a talk with him and tell him how you feel and is he really doing anything . I donā€™t think I read that he disappears . Then again you been married many years if you still deeply love him I would never suggest breaking up . If he is actually doing something Iā€™m still not going to suggest to leave him . But also you deserve respect and the truth. If he is able to hold down the home and you want separation then do everything the correct way and go thru the courts none of this is going to change the hurt or pain but at least you will be compensated for the disrespect and all the faithful time you gave this man.

You should talk to an attorney. Depending on your state you can get spousal support/alimony while you get on your feet and if you have a home and cheating is involved you get a higher percentage.
But laws are different in every state, so speak to an attorney and if your children are disabled maybe you can get checks for them as well.

Hate to break it to you (or to him) but you are entitled to HALF of everything. If you put everything aside to further his career then you are entitled to the income. Sad in certain situations where the man gets f*cked but your type of situation this is exactly why this is implemented. And I know itā€™s easier to just say oh leave him like itā€™s super easy. I know itā€™s not. I know it wonā€™t be easy to start over if thatā€™s what you choose to do.

Firstly, I would start secretly planning a small savings account for yourself. Secondly, I would bring up what you found to him. Note his reaction. A person who does this type of thing will likely not stop but will become more secretive and good at hiding what they do. Really he needs counseling and you both should talk to someone together as well. But when it comes to him and you I feel like you need to be 100% open and honest with what you know, what you found, what your fears are, and what the outcome will be if things arenā€™t 100% resolved on his end, and like with haste! Do t let these things slide. Not even for one second.

Cry, scream, get it all out & then pick yourself up and keep moving forward baby girl. It will all be okay in the end, if itā€™s not then itā€™s not the end yet. Start putting all your time n energy into yourself n your children from now on, forget about him. Keep it cordial for now while youā€™re living under the same roof. Go to your local dhhs office and apply for everything, food stamps, housing, disability for your kids, whatever you can, apply for. Then, start making a plan for yourself and the kids, he leaves or u do. Sense he has a job, I would fight to keep the apt/house esp for the kids so u donā€™t have to up root them. Get yourself a lawyer, check with places that do Probono work, you need to establish custody for the kids and also need the lawyer to file for divorce, they could probably give u advice about the living situation and all that too. You can do this on your own. Sending u love & light. You have a long road ahead of u, but youā€™re not alone Momma! :sparkling_heart:

I hope your okay.

If you break things off, Heā€™ll have to either come to a agreement for monthly / weekly payments to you or you go through CSA. Your children are disabled so look into claiming DLA and universal credit. Money doesnā€™t need to hold you back. Ever.

Itā€™s sad to see women think they HAVE to stay. You have to do nothing. Just like he didnā€™t have to cheat :disappointed:

What I will say is all thatā€™ll happen is heā€™ll be doing it still and just clever enough to delete his history once you talk to him and he knows thatā€™s how you saw the evidence.

You ainā€™t stuck file for divorce you will get the house you have the kids kick his ass out

I feel for you. It isnā€™t that easy to just leave. You are so interlinked and financially dependant on him.
It is so hard when it happens like this because you didnā€™t so anything wrong and your life seems like it has to change.
However, I think you should talk to him. Consider councilling, try and work it. Your relationship may be fixable and maybe not worth throwing it all away, without trying.

1st place you sneaked and looked at something that was none of your business. 2nd place has he left the house to go to visit any of the friends he sees on his screen. My husband liked Playboy and other magazines and hid them from me under the towels in the bathroom When I told him I found one and asked him why he didnā€™t share he said he used them so he could get ā€œupā€. They made him horny. Fine with me. After he died I went on those sites and found men that said they went on that site to see others have sex and when I asked why they said it made them horny. So think about that for awhile.

Donā€™t allow it, be roommates for now until you get a different live in situation, but donā€™t allow this type of disrespect, work on yourself and for your children, you donā€™t deserve this :heart:

God will provide for you if you leave you just need to trust him and put your faith in him. My mom was a single mother to 5 kids. We were rich but we were happy & loved. Thatā€™s all that matters.

File separation papers for alimony and child support then Get all the money out of your bank accounts and put most of it into a cashiers check and the rest hidden underneath your mattress. Then pack his bags and put it by the front door then kick him out telling him this is for cheating. Usually he will leave get mad at the missing money while finding a place to stay and then beg to come back. At that point it is up to you to decide whether you will try again with him or stay separated.

Post in local mom groups, look into divorce procedures, start skimming money and saving. Make and plan and stick to it. REACH OUT FOR HELP lots of organizations and Bob for profits can help you get on your feet.

Say nothing ā€¦ Start a squirrel fund ā€¦ Silently network for help to get out, family shelters, church whatever or whoever u can. Find a way for u to become financially independent ā€¦ If u say jack to him its simply become chaos in your home and if u have disabled children they do not need that.

Some states will make him pay alimony and child supportā€¦.while that may not be enough to survive on, it is a start to gaining independence and getting out of a bad situation. Go to school. Get a degree, start your own business, start off at any job that still allows you to care for your kids, then move up. Itā€™s scary but you can do it. Another option is confront your husband, agree to marriage counseling and attempt to save the marriage. This is the step I would attempt first. If he fails to try this, then proceed with the other. Good luck to you and I hope all works out.

Screen shot or get evidence of his looking. Is he just looking or acting? Do this quietly. Can you get up in the middle of the night to open his phone, or do it while heā€™s in the shower? Send to a trusted friend/s and/or family member/s for safekeeping.

Get advice from a womenā€™s center/shelter in person or online. Discuss what jobs/training you may qualify for. Have them refer you to a lawyer (consult may be free).

Create a plan for divorce. With half of all assets during your 20 year marriage thatā€™s half of all bank accounts, property (including vehicles) owned, investments including IRAs and pensions. Do you rent or own? When I divorced he got all the $$, I got the paid-for house. Alimony, child support, kids disability/Social Security $$ fill in the rest.

Then try counseling. If it works, great. If it doesnā€™t or he backslides, work your plan. If you have assets, you can put them in your childā€™s name, or cash out and hide the money so you donā€™t have as much on your side to divide.

Tell the women in your family to always have enough money stashed away so they can escape.

You can do this: lots of role models.
