A few days won't kill you. When in doubt, err on the side of PAYING it. Do start with the cellphone tho -- that's a no-brainer, as she is using it DIRECTLY to conduct her affair. The only exception I would make to that is if you are able to get detailed billing on it, unbeknownst to you, in which case it becomes a treasure trove of good intel. Puppy
She actually has two phones. Her original one I pay for that still has 1 year left on the contract, and the formerly "secret phone" that is a no-contract disposable. She's a computer neophyte, and I actually have access to both from their respective websites, which is how I've found out she was still in regular contact with OM. I could cancel the expensive one and leave her to continue to pay for the disposable...and at least until she is smart enough to go to the website and say that she can't remember her password (it's sent to the phone), I still retain access to her call records. I hate it though. Until last night, I had resisted checking the logs, and it makes me feel like a raving lunatic to be paging through all the texts, noting dates/times, checking the calendar...ugh. Betrayal's effects on one's trust is such a painfully horrible thing...I'm sure everyone here understands that.
Bad day today. Spent most of it trying to keep it together. Got a recommendation for a atty. this afternoon and will be calling in the morning. Went and got H1N1 vaccination for s7 and myself. Ate dinner with parents and baby sister and her kids. I hate for them to see me in this much pain, and being around people that love me so much made it even harder to not just lose it completely in the restaurant. Still, appreciated the time spent with them.
