CASE STUDY - "WENDY"

"My husband and I have been married for 24 years. We had what I considered to be a good, solid marriage— until three years ago when everything started falling apart. My husband started to distance himself from me more and more each day.

He was always in charge of paying the household bills, and would give m a weekly allowance. I had become sick and tired of his "running the show" and treating me like a child, but I didn't want to make any waves.

About a year ago, he decided to add another phone line to our house which was installed in his home office. I was told that it would be strictly for his own since our regular home phone always seemed to be busy

One day I decided that it was time to take responsibility for my own life, after my husband left for work I went into his office, and dialed *69. Not so surprising, a female answered. I hung up in total shock. After calming down, I went through desk to see what else I could find out. I found nothing out of the ordinary, no phone numbers, no personal letters. Then it hit me to look over the phone bills that have been filed away paid. I recognized most of the numbers except for one which seemed to have been called almost on a daily basis. I called this number and realized that this was the same female voice who answered when I dialed *69.

I just had to know who this woman was. I called information and found that the phone number was listed, and therefore I could receive the name that belonged to that phone number. Out of sheer desperation, I called my best friend to confide in her and let out a little steam. We decided that on the next night my husband went out, we would go over to this address. Two nights later we had our chance. After discovering my husband’s car in this woman's driveway, I finally figured out was wrong in our marriage.”

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Hiding the home telephone bill is a sure sign that your spouse is having an affair. The spouse enjoys the excitement and risk of being able to call the lover when at home. He or she will call their lover even when the spouse is at home, in the shower, outside, or on a different floor of the house. When the spouse attempts to hide the telephone bill it's because he or she does not want the spouse to find the lover's work or home phone number. A spouse might even have the telephone bill mailed directly to his or her place of employment without the chance of the spouse's ever seeing it.

Once you have found a strange telephone number, you might be able to obtain the name and address associated with the number if it is published. Services like Caller ID and Call Return are available in most states. If the lover is calling your spouse, it might show up on the Caller ID. If you don’t already have the terminal hooked up to your phone, subscribe to it. This can easily determine the lover's name and address.
