After That Incident, I Check My Wife’s Phone Every Night But No Evidence

I keep checking my wife’s phone for the last six months. Not a single day passes without me secretly going through her phone. Each night, I get disappointed because I don’t find anything, but my gut feeling tells me she deletes her messages. I keep searching, hoping one day I might just be lucky and find what I’m looking for.

How did we get here?

My wife’s work takes a lot of her time, so sometimes she comes home very late. I didn’t suspect anything until one late night when I saw a car parked behind the wall of our house. I didn’t think much of it because it could have been any car. Several minutes later, the light inside the car turned on, and I saw my wife’s face in the car.

I quickly got out of the room and stepped outside to see who that was and why they were bringing my wife home late at night. By the time I got down to the ground floor, the car had moved, and my wife was already inside the compound. I asked her, “Who brought you home?”

I was not angry or harsh in my tone. “Who brought you home?” She answered, “Me? Were you expecting someone to bring me home? I came home by myself.” I said, “Ah, I was upstairs when I saw you inside a car.” She responded, “A car? Which car? I just got here and didn’t see any car here.”

I went out and checked. You could see fresh tyre prints on the ground, but my wife denied ever seeing a car or coming from inside one. I opened my mouth and watched her while she smiled and walked inside the house. I even questioned my sanity. So that very night, I picked up her phone and, for the first time in our marriage, went through it. I didn’t see anything, not even from a guy. I’ve done that religiously for six months and still found no evidence.

I can swear before a shrine that the face I saw was my wife’s face. The silhouette belonged to the woman I’ve shared my bed with for five years and whose naked figure I’ve seen for so many years.

What Will Make You Leave Me After Forty Years Of Marriage?

My happiness in this marriage is stolen while she struts and walks around like a free bird. Six months of sleepless nights. Six months of gauging her breath to see if she’s completely gone. Six months of sleeping with one eye open. What else should I do to catch a cheating wife?
