Today, while clearing stuff out of the basement, I found my ex-wife's old electronic diary device from the '90s. I found the charger, powered it up, and had soon read all about out she'd been cheating on me for almost half our marriage with the guy she's now married to. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that my wife had been debating leaving me for an old boyfriend from high school. They rekindled their relationship on Facebook, and talking on the cell phone. Both things I insisted she have. FML
Today, I figured I needed to clean my room. I ended up finding my $135 calculator that I'd accused my ex-boyfriend of selling for gas money. That's also the reason I dumped him. FML
Today, I found out that my wife has been having an affair with the guy who's been trying to get our relationship back on track. FML
Today, I found out my ex bought a digital camera, an iPod, and a large flat-screen TV, all purchased with the alimony I'm paying him. FML
Today, my wife found out about all the crazy stuff my ex and I used to do in my car, which I still drive. Serves me right for encouraging them to be friends. I hope she doesn’t find out about what went down on our ottoman, I can’t afford a new one. FML
Today, I decided to check out a dating site, when I stumbled across my ex wife's profile. She'd had it for four out of the five years of our marriage. And no, it didn't rate us as a good match. FML
Today, I went through the stuff that I'd left at my ex’s place and started unpacking it. I found a pair of another girl's panties. We broke up a little over a week ago. FML
Today, I asked my wife for her computer password because my computer crashed. After minutes of begging her, she finally told me. Turns out that her password happens to be her ex's name. FML
Today, I walked into pawn shop and found a nice laptop which I inspected after I thought I lost mine months ago. Turns out my ex pawned it after having it at her place all this time. FML
Today, while visiting my in-laws, I went into their home office in search of a sheet of scrap paper. Instead, I found printed copies of every email and IM my husband and I had ever sent each other, including pictures. Highlighted and annotated by his mother. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Dear diary, My wife's an asshole.

It's better to find it now when she's your ex-wife rather than to have found it while you were still married to her. Regardless, that stinks OP. You're better off without her.

It's probably an FML cause he might be paying her alimony or she got half of everything in the divorce. But it's an FML regardless cause she was a cheating bitch.

Honestly, if my ex-wife had been sleeping with someone else I'd rather have found out during the marraige. That kind of evidence would make a HUGE difference in the divorce proceedings.

That's definitely a good point

Why read her diary, though? That sucks but next time... there's things you don't wanna know.

Because he could see why she would cheat on him? Also, if someone cheats, they deserve bad things to happen to them.

my ex thought that way. if she cheated it was my fault for finding out.
GeekGirl2000 13
Sorry for not specifying, I meant Why read her diary followed by an unrelated things you don't wanna know because they're might've been other things. like "Youre bad in bed" or something.

Lol he probably either read to find dirty scoops or reminisce either way there was no reason not to read it either those or curiosity struck either way sry for your luck. I hope your ex and her new husband both cheat on each other in future that way they will know your pain.

Damn. Cheaters really don't deserve love imo. Fyl.

Why is this down rated? This was obviously a closed relationship with commitment and his ex was a cheating *****. She honestly doesn't deserve love since she gives it a bad name.( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Like that reference? No? Okay?

Shout to the heart, and it's to late!

That's a massive invasion of her privacy, cheating ex-wife or not.

She left it at his house for years. She also had the choice to take it during the divorce but chose not to. That's abandonment of property. It becomes his to do with as he pleases.

Some secrets are better left unrevealed, sorry OP, but when you read someone else's diary you're bound to find out something you wish you hadn't
