I had almost forgotten about the thread.
Ok so here goes nothing:
This morning I woke up to texts from the wife wondering what I was calling her about. I apologized and said I didn't realize how late it was, but checked that we were still meeting up after I finished work.
My gay friend, let's call him Paul, isn't too well acquainted with the wife, but I told him to join us so that she wouldn't think I was pulling one over on her or anything.
So after work we all meet up in my backyard. This is the first time I've seen her since I found this whole ordeal began, and me and my buddy were kinda nervous.
I start off by telling her me and Paul have something serious to say that involves her. She looked really confused, since she and Paul aren't all that close.
Paul goes on to explain what Grindr is, and how it allows local gay men to meet up and have sex anonymously. Beforehand, Paul said he had no problem revealing his sexuality to her.
She looked really confused and began to laugh. She asked how it concerned her.
Nate: Well, Wife, take a look at these
I hand her my phone with the pics
Wife: On my god, what the fuck! What the fuck? What is this?
Nate: We found Husband on that app and didn't know what to do. We set up an account to see if it was actually him and sent us those pictures.
She began sobbing and it broke my heart.
Wife: So Husband is gay?!
Nate: Most likely. He also admitted to being okay with unprotected sex. I'd get checked out as soon as possible.
More sobbing and then she hugged us both
I ask her what she'd like us to do.
Wife: I want to catch the fucker
Me and Paul immediately NOPE her. We explain that will only lead to bad news and police cases. She (thankfully) agrees.
We help her home and then to another friend's house.
Obviously this post is a little TL;DR version. One of the most emotional encounters I've ever experienced and I just hope she comes out healthy.
I dont know if she's confronted her husband yet, but I pray everything goes well.
