As I found more and more charges for hotel rooms and expensive restaurants, I started to feel like I was living someone else’s life.
The following account is being published under a pseudonym to protect the identity of the author’s family.
I was devastated. Numb. I hadn’t been on my own since my early 20s. I was graying, had a sagging body, and had been a complete stranger to the traditional job market for more than two decades. I was also coping with chronic depression and anxiety, and the thought of online dating terrified me. The internet didn’t even exist the last time I went on a date. Can you even remember what life was like before the internet? I certainly can’t.
Not long after my husband left, I realized I needed to sit down and create a budget for myself. I was prepared to start from scratch — I didn’t even know how much our family spent on monthly bills. Surprisingly ― considering what I was about to unearth ― my husband provided me with the passwords for our joint bank and credit card accounts.
The charges went back at least a year. I logged into my husband’s PayPal account and found payments he had made to these women. “Enjoy the shopping spree,” he wrote in one message. “Have a great weekend!” he told another. Each transaction was for at least $1,000 ― and there were many, many transactions.
