I never imagined that a single late-night scroll would change the course of my life. But when I saw my husband’s profile on a dating site, everything shifted.
Out of shock more than anger, I created a fake account to confirm what I feared. When he messaged me, calling himself a widower “looking for love,” my heart cracked.
I didn’t confront him. I just sat there, realizing I needed a plan.For days, I kept my emotions hidden and watched silently. Then, one evening, he walked in and said calmly, “You won’t believe what happened today.” I braced myself. He explained that a coworker had warned him about online scams and fake profiles. He claimed he had joined the site only “out of curiosity” and insisted it meant nothing. As he spoke, I noticed how easily he rewrote his actions into something harmless.
