Apparently, I missed my wife's lover by only a few minutes. I found out when she texted me accidentally instead of him. Reddit, when did you know for sure it was over?

I went on a business trip this weekend and got home at 6:25AM. I didn't want to wake her and the kids, so I sat quietly in the living room watching TV. A few minutes later I get a text from her:

"Thanks for staying over babe. I love sleeping next to you."

Obviously, I wasn't here last night. I'm still on the couch and haven't responded. I think she went back to sleep and has no idea she accidentally texted me.

Monday:

1. I had to go to work before confronting her. I think it was better anyway, since it gave me time to think about what to say instead of rushing to anger.

1. I asked my assistant to go to the 7-11 next door and see if they have Shiner Bock. If they don't, I'll ask him to go as far as Publix. For science! (Edit: we didn't find any)

1. She finally texted me at work, and said that her (girl)friend stayed over. I didn't respond. (3:00PM EST)

Tuesday:

1. I left work last night and went to dinner with one of my work partners.

1. I didn't say a word to my wife when I came to bed. In the morning I mentioned the text after I woke up. I told her I was surprised she would use that language with a girl…
