Woman warned her husband is a cheat after she spots worrying sign on household appliance
A woman has been warned her husband is cheating on her after she spotted something strange on one of her household appliances. The concerned wife, who appears to be from the US, took to Reddit to share her suspicions - posting a screenshot from the app interface for her smart weighing scales. Among the data shared to her smart phone is a weight of around 86kg (190lbs), which she identifies as her husband. But another, much lighter, weight is listed at around 54kg (120lbs), which is recorded shortly after midnight. Sharing the screenshot on the 'Am I Overreacting' subreddit, the woman revealed she was away from the house on the date the 120lbs was recorded. She also confirmed she does not weigh that amount. She also revealed she and her husband are in a trial separation period after a strain was put on the marriage due to infidelity - but added they'd agreed not to see other people to 'focus on ourselves'. Although she said the reading could be a glitch, she 'can't shake the feeling that someone was there'. She wrote: 'This has been messing with my head, and I need some honest, outside opinions. We have another home that my husband has been staying in recently bc we're in the process of separating due to infidelity. 'I checked the digital scale's memory out of curiosity and it showed two 'unassigned' weigh-ins at exactly 120 lbs, logged at 12:25 a.m. and 12:26 a.m. back-to-back. 'For context, I do not weigh 120lbs, and I was not there on that date, just my husband. Needless to say, I'm shaken. I'm in the middle of a separation from my husband due to past cheating. 'He has been staying at the condo. And while I didn't want to jump to conclusions, this feels like more than just a glitch. I didn't say anything to him bc in the past he's never taken accountability to the infidelities I've found. 'I also want to protect my peace and not jump to conclusions. But deep down, I can't shake the feeling that someone was there. The scale doesn't randomly store numbers and he for weigh 120 lbs. It only logs a reading when someone physically steps on it. 'So here's what I'm asking Reddit: What would YOU conclude? Can a digital scale do something like this on its own? Or is this a clear sign that someone else was in my home when I wasn't supposed to have company? 'I'm trying to stay strong, but this is eating away at me.' She then further clarified in a reply: 'We separated and one of our boundaries was to not see other people but rather to focus on ourselves so we could then work on our marriage'. 'This other home is a family home where we all hangout on long weekends and such not meant to be his bachelor condo,' she added. Users online were quick to pile in on the brazen husband's antics and sided with the wife, many agreeing that the suspicious log of weights points towards another person being over at the house late at night. One user wrote: 'Just more closure to finalize the seperation. Now you can have peace knowing that this is the right decision.' Another similarly said: 'Why does it matter? You're divorcing for infidelity. Sounds like he's continuing on as if nothing has changed' One person responded: 'If he cheated when you were living together, of course he's going to have company when he's living alone. I feel that's obvious, and it's a naive agreement that you believed in. He only agreed to it for the sake of peace from you, and so you don't have company yourself.' While one person wrote: 'I think it's pretty clear he had someone over. And 120lbs after midnight - not one of his male buddies. Blessing in disguise, better to have confirmation now so you can proceed confidently with the divorce' However, one user was more sympathetic, writing: 'I'm actually baffled at the number of comments saying something along the lines of 'you're separated why does it matter.' Separated is very different from decidedly moving toward certain impending divorce. Many times, couples separate while they figure out what to do.' While others were more impressed with the way the wife discovered the cheating: 'This is expert-level sleuthing. Men underestimate our level of intuition. When you confront him, he'll probably try to paint you as crazy or paranoid. You're not. They don't get it — they could fart differently and we'd know something's up.' 'Damn. Never knew digital scales have a log. There's no doubt OP. Get this dead weight off your back, quick,' another said. A minority of commenters felt that the wife was reading into the measurement too much, especially considering that it was perfectly round number. One wrote: 'To poke holes in your theory, the weight is at EXACTLY 120lbs, with no deviation. Every other weigh in on your app has a deviation of .2, .6, or is a whole number but never the exact same as the previous. 'You say you want to protect your peace, and I understand people being mistrusting from previous actions, but you are doing the opposite of protecting your peace here, you are actively looking to sabotage it by trying to make these neurotic connections.' Another agreed, saying: 'I also find the 120lbs exact weight suspicious. I mean… it's not a 0% chance someone is 120 exactly, but it can't be super common either.' But one person pointed out: 'Could the scale randomly show you a weigh-in that never happened as a glitch? Sure I believe that 100%. What are the odds that it would be a suspicious weight rather than idk 20 pounds or 999 pounds or 400 pounds? That to me is very suspicious.' However, there was a humorous side to this discovery as people online were quick to point out that they could see the husband would presumably weigh himself before and after he went to the toilet. One user wrote: 'I would like to point out that it's also obvious from this record that the guy weighs himself before and after he takes a d**p.' Another said: 'I'm looking at the time entries of the 190 pounder — does he weigh himself before and after poops?' From the screenshot, the weight that is presumed to be the husband's often will take a reading and then not long after will take another measurement, which will be lower.

New Goes on Week-Long Trip with Her In-Laws. Now She Feels 'Broken' After Receiving No Help With the Baby
The woman says her newborn's sleeping habits weren't taken into consideration on a family vacationNEED TO KNOW A woman says a week-long family vacation left her feeling "broken" after no one offered to help her with her newborn In a post shared to Reddit, she writes that she brought her 3-month-old baby along on the trip But in the end, she was left out of the group activities — mostly due to her baby's sleeping habitsA woman says she's feeling "broken" after taking a week-long trip with her in-laws. In a post shared to Reddit, the woman writes that she brought her 3-month-old baby along on the trip, which was meant to celebrate her mother-in-law's 75th birthday. "I really wish we hadn't gone," she writes, adding that there were "many people with [child-rearing] experience" on the trip, but none of them offered to hold the baby or give her a break. "They went out to dinner without us every night. It would be like 'oh let's go to nice restaurant! At 7:30!' Well, baby goes to sleep at 7pm and the restaurant is 45 min away….one night they offered to bring us back some food, but then said oh sorry we lost track of time and the kitchen is closing now. Every other night we just fended for ourselves or ate the leftovers they brought home," she writes. She adds that she, her husband and her child weren't included in group photos — which always took place while the baby was napping — and she wasn't asked to join on group outings. "They didn't want to have to plan, they wanted to do things spontaneously, which is practically impossible with an infant," she adds.

Many on Reddit are urging the woman to speak to a professional, with one writing, "Three months is SO little and they are still figuring out life. At that stage I was still in survival mode and I can't imagine traveling where I don't have any of my normal tools or routines. You're are totally justified in being totally spent!"

Living with my children's grandparents has taught me to stand my ground as a working mom
After we got married, my husband and I moved in with his parents. Generational differences have meant differences in thinking at times, especially once we had kids. My in-laws hold old-school views on gender roles, but I've learned to stand my ground. When I got married, my husband and I decided to move in with his parents. They all wanted it, and I was OK with it. Growing up in Pakistan, I'd seen many families live together in this way, and at first, it didn't seem like it would be a problem. My husband was kind, supportive, and took good care of me, and I expected his parents to be the same. For the most part, we settled into a peaceful rhythm, marked by shared meals, family gatherings, and the sense of an extended support system. But living under one roof with different generations also meant differences in thinking that sometimes ran deep. Old-school expectations and generational mindsets My in-laws were traditional and old-school in many ways. For them, gender roles were clear and non-negotiable. Men weren't expected to help with household chores, and a woman's world was supposed to revolve entirely around home and family. No work, ambition, or personal goal was supposed to come before that. In the beginning, I didn't push back much. I focused on settling into the family and avoiding conflict. But there were small moments that made me pause, like seeing my father-in-law sit at the table waiting to be served, never once trying to help himself. Or my in-laws believing that men shouldn't do anything in the kitchen — not even make their own tea, ever. Even if the women in the house weren't feeling well, it simply wouldn't occur to them to prepare a cup of tea themselves, let alone cook a meal, because serving men was seen as a woman's job. At first, I brushed these things aside, telling myself it wasn't worth the argument. Motherhood changed everything After I became a mother, especially to three boys, I realized I couldn't keep ignoring these differences. Once, one of my sons accidentally spilled juice on the floor. I handed him a mop and told him to clean it up. He was cranky about it, but he knew he had to do it. My mother-in-law didn't exactly interfere, but I could hear her muffled disapproval that a boy shouldn't be made to handle such tasks. My in-laws also didn't approve of me wanting to continue working, reminding me again and again that a woman's first priority should be her home and children, even though I was only working part-time from home. I am not someone who would overreact to the idea of someone wanting to stay at home and not work. I completely respect that choice — if staying home makes someone happy, that's wonderful. But that's not me. I've always wanted to work, not just for financial reasons, but because it's part of who I am. The subtle remarks and comments from my in-laws started to weigh on me because I saw how they were shaping my kids' ideas about what men and women should or shouldn't do. They were lessons my kids were absorbing every day about responsibility, respect, and gender roles. Finally, standing my ground Standing my ground came with struggles. There were disagreements, subtle comments, and tension that sometimes hung in the air for days. There were hardly ever dramatic arguments — more often, it was quiet disapproval, the kind that is felt more than heard. My husband was supportive, but sometimes caught in the middle. He'd grown up with the same traditional ideas, and while he understood me and my beliefs, he also felt torn between keeping peace at home and standing by my choices. There were times I felt judged, or selfish, or caught between two expectations. But I kept going in a way that was true to me because I knew I'd regret giving up a part of myself entirely. Also, I wanted my sons to grow up understanding that respect goes both ways. That chores aren't "women's work." That a woman can have her own ambitions and still love her family deeply. What I want my children to carry forward God willing, my husband and I will be celebrating our 18th anniversary this year. Looking back, I'm glad I stood my ground on some issues. We still live with his parents, but a lot has changed in our home. My boys help around the house without being asked, so they don't think twice about picking up a mop or setting the table. They understand that their mother has dreams of her own, and that doesn't make her any less loving or devoted. There are days when I'm tired and my son brings me a cup of evening tea, not just for me, but for his grandmother too, who now gladly accepts it. My boys are praised for being kind, empathetic, and supportive — and that makes every quiet battle I fought worth it. I don't believe one generation is right and the other wrong — we just come from different times, shaped by different expectations. For my in-laws, traditional roles brought comfort and order. But I realized that blindly following traditions — especially ones I didn't believe in — wasn't the path I wanted for myself or my children. Tradition and change can coexist, but only when you stand up for what matters, with both respect and resolve. Read the original article on Business Insider Solve the daily Crossword

When my husband turned 60, we started going to Florida for the winters. I hated it at first.
When my husband turned 60, he decided we were going to spend half the year in Florida. I struggled going from New York City to our rental condo in North Miami. Now I go back to New York every two weeks while he stays at the beach. The second my husband turned 60, he decided it was time to join the million residents who spend part of the year (in our case, six months) in Florida. My spouse sold me on the sun, sand, and surf — and a North Miami condo rental on the 20th floor with ocean views. I didn't protest when he suggested it — so many of our friends who are empty nesters have made the part-time move to Boca, Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, or Delray. But when we shipped our car stuffed with bags down to Aventura in December, I quickly realized this was far different from New York City. I tried to make the most out of it The first week, my hubby was gleeful playing pickleball and snoozing on the terrace. I, however, immediately experienced a rosacea flareup from the 85-degree heat and humidity and wound up at a dermatologist's office. The doctor asked if I could stay out of the sun. "Can you write me a prescription to go back to New York?" I responded. Instead, she sold me $159 worth of sunscreen products and sent me on my way. As the weeks crawled by, we went on a few double dates with other couples. "You'll like them. They're about our age," my spouse assured me. They were — give or take 20 years. A few already had grandchildren and were on their second hip replacement. Rather than pout, I decided to make the most of my situation. Every day, I would don a wide-brimmed baseball hat and take a long walk around the exercise trail leading around the golf course. As I logged in my 10,000 steps, I dodged kids on bikes, Door Dash deliveries on motorized scooters, even a four-foot-long lizard and a family of wild ducks. Once, on my second loop, I passed a woman pushing her Maltese in a stroller. I peered inside the carriage; the dog looked more miserable than I. I felt out of place Strolling back through the security gates into the condo complex driveway, I called a friend to vent. "This is so not me! I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone!" I said to hear while complaining about how no one wore black. She was talking me off the ledge when I suddenly heard screeching tires. I turned to see a blue Cadillac coming straight at me. It swerved side to side wildly, hitting a few palm trees in its path and taking out the arm of the security gate. I screamed and jumped into a bush as it sped past, finally coming to a hard stop in front of the condo fountain. I ran after the car, prepared to scream at the driver for trying to mow me down. An old, bent-over gentleman emerged from behind the wheel, and his nurse stepped out of the passenger side. She apologized, and I saw that the man was clearly in shock — he was 97 years old, I found out. I made my way upstairs, thankfully unharmed but covered in dirt from my tumble into the landscaping. I told my spouse what happened. "Florida," he shrugged. "What are you gonna do?" There was plenty I could do — for starters, book my return flight home the next day. "This IS home," he reminded me. I didn't want to be here I went into the bathroom, slammed the door behind me, and cried. This life wasn't me, and despite wanting to be a good wife and spend quality time with my husband, I didn't want to be here. I felt completely lost. I talked to my spouse and explained how I was feeling. To his credit, he told me to travel back and forth as much as I needed. Delta Air Lines became my new best friend. We struck a compromise: I return to New York every two weeks, spend a week or two recharging my batteries, and then return. I now see my daughter, do my work, and meet up with friends. When I'm home and he is in Florida, I don't miss the surroundings, but I do miss him. He comes back to NYC a few times as well, and the rest of the time we spend together in what I try not to call "Aventorture" (at least not in front of him). As we reach the end of May and our official "move out" time for the snowbird season, I'm actually starting to feel more at ease. I got this. I found a few things that keep me entertained and sane: local theater, an Air Supply concert, and the Ralph's coffee stand at the Aventura Mall that doesn't run out of oat milk. It will never be NYC, but maybe when I'm 97 (hopefully not still driving), it may seem ideal. Read the original article on Business Insider Solve the daily Crossword
