Hi Geo,

We all need our GAL stuff, but more than once or twice per week (primarily on the weekends, and coming home at a decent hour) is inappropriate, at best, for a mother of two -- one with special needs. At worst, it's a huge red flag, considering her past infidelity.

Is she going out on weeknights/schoolnights? What time does she come home?

Constantly texting her and checking on her makes you look needy and controlling. You'd do better to set a simple (but firm) boundary here, rather than tracking her down like Needy Controlling Guy.
