[markhaving probs]

I have just had a call from my wife saying she wants to buy a mobile phone for our daughter 11. I asked why and she said it saves me having to call her mobile to talk to the children, and if my daughter wanted to talk to her she could do it with her own phone. She also said it saves us having to talk to each other (that hurt). I got assertive and said I think it is inappropiate and there was not a good enough reason for her to have one. I said if she was with me and wanted to talk to you she can either use my phone or the landline. If I need to talk to the children I could call the landline or my wife's mobile and ask her to put me on to the children. She said "well I will sort it out anyway", meaning she is going to get her one anyway. She then said I do not want to talk to you anymore and ended the call.

I don't know but I get the impression there may be another agenda to this. Even though one of my daughters friends has a mobile for these reasons (apparantly), I feel my wife does not want me ringing her mobile, is it because I might call her when she might be with somebody who she does not want to know about me? Is she involved with someone, if she is, would he know she is still married?

After reading antlers post I should not let it bother me, but I stood my ground without worrying about what she would think of me, but it does stir up the possibility of OP and maybe the speed she wants to end our marriage, or am I being paranoid?
