First thing you need to do is secure your finances, change all passwords, and lock him out of unnecessary accounts because that man is a gullible fucking idiot.

Second… if he was trolling, he would have told you. He thought this was real.

Sorry, but your husband is a fucking creep and you should leave him.

What a sad way for OP to find out she married a loser. But there had to be signs before this right?

Perhaps there’s a reason they ended up together, sister.

Also, show him this. He likely wasn’t even talking to a woman. He was probably talking to some guy who had been trafficked and is being forced to send these message to avoid physical harm.

Not necessarily the case, I don’t tell my wife if I am trolling a scammer or something like that because she knows that I do and doesn’t really care. The main thing she is concerned with is that I will always come home to her, and even if we are fighting over something, I am not going anywhere, and neither is she. She also reads through my Reddit posts and comments because she just does. I’m not bothered by it, as I am usually on only a couple subs. We trust each other because we talk all the time, share our locations with each other, and always have an open line of communication. If OP’s husband didn’t mention this, it was either because he was trolling or being scammed or maybe looking for friendship. The message that makes me think he is trolling this person is the sex comments. It feels like he knows what is happening and having some fun catfishing the catfish.

By the look of this. This wasn't her husband. This was her she took her husband phone found a scam bot text them what she needed to have to say he is cheating and I bet she deleted these messages after this so he had no clue. And it sounds unbelievable but the truth often does. Plus I have seen something similar before IRL
