Our lodger bunks up with my bloke
CAUGHT THEM IN CLINCH
OUR shameless lodger bedding my man.
I’m convinced she’s determined to steal him from me.
Twice now I’ve caught them kissing in the kitchen. The other day I returned early from the shops and I am sure they were in the shower together.
More than once I’ve pulled back the sheets on our bed to discovered condom foils and discarded knickers (hers, not mine).
I’m in pieces here. I’ve never felt more vulnerable or frightened in my life. She’s so sexy and confident that she intimidates me. She looks at me as if I’m the dirt under her shoe.
My son has offered to set up secret cameras all over my home, but I’m almost too scared to have the truth confirmed to me.
Regret
is
If I confront my husband and demand the truth then he’ll have to choose between her and me. What if he chooses her and I’m thrown out on my ear?
I deeply regret the day I ever suggested getting a lodger. I thought having someone living in our spare room would help with the bills.
I found our “cuckoo” through a friend at work. She assured me her cousin would be a perfect fit for us, but she’s been a night
mare from the start. Not only is she sleeping with my husband, but she’s also grand and very demanding. She glides around like she owns the place and treats me like her own personal servant.
I’ve had to buy organic foods and eco-friendly cleaning products because she didn’t approve of my previous purchases.
Friends say I have to get tough. But how can I do that when I feel ugly, exhausted and beaten?
JANE SAYS: I understand the urge to pretend that nothing is happening.
But you have to confront your husband because this
has gone too far. He has to hear you have your selfrespect and your limits and you refuse to be disrespected any longer.
What does he think he’s playing at? You have caught them kissing and found condom foils in your own bed.
What was that? Some kind of sick joke designed to wind you up and send you completely over the top?
You are worth more than this. This is your home and, like it or not, you are in a legally binding relationship with your husband – or has he conveniently forgotten it?
Your friends are absolutely right – you have to bring everything out into the open.
If your husband ultimately decides he’d rather be with her than you, then he’ll have a very expensive divorce on his hands.
Forget the notion that you’ll slip away with nothing because that’s not true.
Your lodger may feel as though she’s walking on air, but you cannot allow her to get under your skin.
Keep talking to supportive friends, believing in yourself demand answers. your start and
