Jack - The snooping interesting enough happened by accident. I brushed up against her jacket and felt what I thought was "the phone". I did go into the pocket and that is when I found. So I guess yes it was snooping. My response to Drew should address your next point...
Drew - according to my attny - It does not have an impact on custody but could have an impact on the division of assets. Ideally you do not want to air dirty laundry so I assume it would be used in negotiations. I will also check with another attny to cross my facts. According to my attny it may also give me a little leverage if we decide to fight over who stays in the house. At the end of the day I want my M to work but as you know I cannot control that to some extent. What I do not want to do is to get the shaft on something that I did not want. I understand that she is an MLC but that does not mean that me, my kids (especially my D) have to suffer because she has decided to "find herself". At the end of the day I will stand as long as I can. I made mistakes in the M - no question about that but I cannot control what she does. I can only work on myself and protect myself. In terms of the pictures I agree - if with the text and the cell phone records I have enough then trust me I do not want to go the route of pictures.
