I caught my wife of 36 years cheating via her apple watch.
I couldn't believe it.
My wife of 36 years was planning a weekend with another man.
I would have never caught her.
If her apple watch didn't go off.
I have been with my wife since our senior year of high school.
We were inseparable, when we were in high school.
If we were not in classes, you would see us both together.
My wife, after graduating high school went off to college, but it was a local college.
She was studying to be a nurse, even though she was in college, we still saw each other still glued to at the hip.
I would help her study.
Sometimes we would go on weekend getaways, etc.
As the years go by, we grow closer and start planning a wedding.
After she graduates college, my father owns a lumber company.
So after high school I went right to work.
My goal was to start saving some money for the wedding and my father knew this and he said he would pay for some of it.
So in my mind, everything is set. Fast forward.
We have a wedding which ended up costing almost $20,000 by some standards, dollar sign wise, that's considered a small wedding.
For the first 30 years, our marriage was strong.
We would always communicate with each other.
If we are going to be late, coming home, going out with friends, etc., whatever it was, we made sure let each other know.
Then all of a sudden I started noticing a small shift in her shopping habits.
She was doing a tad bit more shopping for nice clothes and lingerie.
I thought to myself, okay.
She is trying to spice things up in the bedroom or just trying to look a little nicer, I suppose.
I didn't put any more thought into it.
In addition to the shopping, she joined a gym and told me she wanted to get in better shape.
I said, okay.
And to make it look good, or at least I thought she said, I should come along too.
At this point, I didn't realize anything suspicious.
So I said, okay.
I would go work out with you.
My work schedule at my dad's place was flexible.
So it wasn't a big deal to leave early or come in a little later.
Well, one day while we were at the gym, I was on the treadmill and she was doing squats with a dumbbell in between sets while she was resting.
I noticed a few times she was looking down at her apple watch and smiling.
I didn't think anything of it.
I just figured someone sent her something via Facebook and she receives a notification on her watch.
She uses Facebook a lot.
I dismissed it for a while, but after doing some research, I realized that every time she was looking down at her watch and smiling, she would go over to the corner of the gym, where there were no cameras.
So I found that a little odd, but I didn't put any more thought into it.
There is a fan in the corner of the gym as well, a few weeks go by then one day something strange happened after going to the gym, both of us. At about 10:00 PM.
She says she wants to go back to the gym for another session.
I asked her why she says she has all of this energy and she wanted to do another session.
I kissed her goodbye and off she went and this time she didn't come home until around 12:30 AM or so.
She gave me a kiss.
So I said, I thought you were going to get some sleep.
And she says, well, we've got these new mats down there with crystals embedded into it.
And they're supposed to help us feel more energized.
I said, what, what is going on?
Why would you stay this late?
Because of some mats with crystals, she said it was something she wanted to try.
I said, okay.
I just find it odd.
She says, why would you say that?
I told her, I hope you are not doing something you are not supposed to be doing.
She yells at me and tells me not to be insecure and I kind of just let it go. The next morning I get up for work, get cleaned up, get ready.
I didn't kiss her, say goodbye or say anything because I find the whole gym thing because of a mat, a tad bit suspicious, but I didn't press
on it because I didn't want to come across as accusatory with no evidence of her doing anything.
When I get to work, I get a call from her and she asks why, I didn't say anything to her.
I simply said that you were sleeping soundly and I didn't want to wake you.
She hesitated and said, are you sure?
I said, yes.
I told her I loved her and got off the phone as the day goes by.
I finish up work and head home.
Today's the day my wife and I usually go to the gym together.
But when I get home, she isn't home.
So I put my bag down and reach for my phone to call her.
When I call my call goes straight to voicemail.
So I got changed and drove to the gym.
When I get there, my wife is nowhere to be found.
I asked at the front desk and they say she is in the studio doing yoga.
I head into the studio, but there are no classes today.
Why would they tell me she is doing yoga, but there are no classes... weird.
So I stopped looking for her and figured while I was at the gym, might as well get my workout in.
I work out for a full hour before I noticed my wife walk into the gym.
She sees me and says, Hey honey, I didn't speak.
I just waved my hand at her.
She saw that I was sweating my butt off and wasn't going to touch me.
So she said she was going into the locker room.
When she went into the locker room, I got off the treadmill and left after getting home in about 20 minutes.
My wife calls me and asks me where I am.
I said, I am at home.
I am done.
So I came home.
I waited for her to get home.
I saw the car pull up and she got out of it.
She looked at me like nothing happened and walked inside the house.
I asked her, Hey, I called you earlier today because we were supposed to go to the gym together.
When I called it went straight to voicemail.
Where were you?
She told she had to go to work for a little while because one of the other nurses needed the first part of her shift off to take care of some personal business.
I then asked, why didn't you just tell me that?
She said my phone died and started yelling at me for asking questions.
At that point, I knew I had to cool it and see why she is getting defensive.
When I have asked her a few times, when things seem odd. My father calls me, he just happened to be running around town, doing errands.
He tells me the day that I was supposed to go to the gym with my wife, my wife was at a specialty store buying some clothes.
I said, oh, she told me she was at work.
I asked, was she with anyone?
He said, no, she wasn't.
She was by herself.
He says, I just wanted you to know.
I saw her.
We make additional small talk and we hang up the phone. At that moment.
I knew something was up, but I couldn't figure it out.
The only thing that is suspicious, she isn't where she is supposed to be on one occasion and buying sexy clothes.
That's all I have. The next day, I go to work, get off work and drive home.
My wife is home already.
She is doing laundry.
She comes up to me and says, how was your day?
I said, it wasn't bad.
Just had a lot of work.
She then tells me she is going to see her parents this weekend.
I said, oh, okay.
She then says, you know, I haven't spent any time with them in months.
I said, I agree.
She then says, I'm going to get in the shower.
I said, okay.
While she is in the shower, I noticed her watch is sitting on the counter.
I glanced at it before turning on the TV.
Then, I heard her watch go off.
I didn't pay attention at first, but, it went off three more times.
I look back at the bedroom door to see if my wife is still in the shower.
She is, I go over and look at her apple watch.
Oh my God, it's a guy giving my wife an address to a hotel.
My heart starts pounding, but I had to keep my cool.
So I gather myself and write down the address of the hotel.
As I put down her watch and walk back over to the couch and sit, she comes out of the bedroom with a towel wrapped around her and goes right for her.
Watch.
I didn't say anything.
She says, I need my watch.
I have to charge it.
I simply said, okay.
The night goes on with thoughts in my head of why the next morning I get up, my wife is still asleep.
I go get myself cleaned up and kiss my wife on the cheek while she is asleep, she wakes up and kisses me back.
I tell her, have a good day.
I love you.
As I am driving to work, I call my wife's dad and say, Hey, I want to surprise her.
She said she was coming to see you guys this weekend.
So I want to come a little later as a surprise.
He says, what?
She is not coming this weekend.
I said, huh?
Are you sure?
He says, yes, I am sure.
Hmm.
I said, okay, Hey, let me call you back.
At that point, I knew something was up.
She had to be cheating on me.
A hotel address from a guy and her dad saying she is not coming this weekend.
I am furious right now, but I had to hold it together until the weekend, Saturday morning arrives and she is packing.
Like she is going to her parents.
I help her put things in her car.
I act like I don't know anything other than she is going to see her parents for the weekend.
As the early afternoon arrives.
I walk her out to the car and tell her to have a safe trip, kiss her and tell her I love her.
I know what time check-in is at the hotel, but I had to get the room number.
So I disguised my voice and called the front desk and said, someone ordered a pizza by this name and boom.
They gave me the room number.
So, at about 8:00 PM, I'm pretend to go to each room, to give each guest a complimentary bottle of wine.
I knock on the door and this guy answers the door.
He looks at me and says, oh, who are you?
I said, I am her husband.
The look on my wife's face was absolutely floored.
She actually screamed a tad bit.
I said, don't rush coming home.
I'm going to see a lawyer.
First thing, Monday morning, I am absolutely devastated this b*tch threw away 36 years for a roll in the hay.
Everyone will know she cheated.
I don't know how long she has known this guy, but cheating after 36 years after the weekend.
I will definitely be calling some lawyers.
