I was snooping through H's phone...
I had a suspicion that H was doing something shady with an online
prescription drug site. I had caught a glimpse of him being on the
website but didn't really think much of it because I didn't know what it
was about. A few days later he told me he needed a money order for
something going on through his job. I thought it sounded shady and
remembered the website so I asked him straight up if he ordered
something online that he would need a money order for and he said no and
acted like he didn't remember being on the website that I was referring
to.
This morning his phone was just laying there on the
counter so I looked through his gmail account and saw an order
confirmation for hydrocodone pain killers (which he does not have a prescription for), and instructions on where to send a money
order. I don't know what to do. We've been having other problems anyway and I have been considering leaving, but I keep thinking if we work on things, we might be able to get back to a better place. We were in counseling for about 6 months but stopped almost a month ago because we weren't happy with the therapist, and haven't made any decisions on continuing counseling yet. Now with this, I don't know if I should confront him and try to get him help, or just leave. I know it's silly, but I feel bad going through his phone. I feel sick. What should I do?
Re: I was snooping through H's phone...
I would tell him to get help as I was walking out the door. Things are already bad and now you know he's lying and taking drugs. That sick feeling in your stomach, I don't think you can ever get rid of that.
No kids, I take it? Do you own, or rent?
This sounds weird to me, if he had an order confirmation he would have most likely already paid...are you sure it's not a scam mailer? Did it have his mailing address and other information on it?
It had instructions on where to send the money order, our mailing address, and his email and account password. I logged into his account with the website and it has his order number and all his information. There was also an email from him to their customer service following up at some point when he hadn't gotten a delivery date from them yet.
I'd wait for the pills to come in and take them with me when I left... He's already spent your money on em and no reason not to spoil his high in every way. Since you seem to have quit on the marriage anyway may as well turn the dagger deep as possible. Leave him a wrecked drug addict quivering on the floor with out a wife or any reason to live!?
Sorry watching intervention right now. Just feeling that addict pity.
Drug use and drug addiction is a dealbreaker.
Fwd this to yourself so you have proof. Decide if you want to live with an addict. This can't be his first addiction. Does he get scripts from doctors for other pills? Talk to him about rehab and GTFO. It will only get worse. Check your credit too. If its a scam your credit might be messed up.
PM if you want to talk. My XH bought drugs online and had a pill addiction.
Awww... you're so cute. ;o)
Having a prescription is not the only way to get painkillers. Although these websites seem shady, it's not like you're paying and not get your product. You'll pay through the nose... but in the end, he's purchasing painkillers. Prescription or no prescription. That's why addicts order through these websites. They're websites housed in other countries that don't have such strict controlled substance laws (i.e. no prescription needed). You pay an azzload of money to one of these people and hope to God the pills get through Customs on their way into the US.

Yeah you gave up on this thing already you said. This guy at least deserves better then you so you should honestly do him the favor of leaving. I honestly can say I don't see him asking a board on the interwebs what to do about you giving up on the marriage so he must be the bad guy. Couldn't be things like this being read over your shoulder or behind your back that drove him to drugs instead of you!?
*lurker butting in* Is this a joke? I sincerely hope you're being sarcastic. If not...umm, wow.

Had me fooled for a minute, and then I was like, is that English?
You're so right. How dare someone not want their hard earned money to go to fund a drug habit. What a selfish ?! She should go to the ATM right now, take out as much cash as she can get and hit the streets to buy her H his next fix. Then she'd get "wife of the year"!

Affirmative. I like the way you think toots!?
I'm glad that this interro+bang weirdo is an imposter. I thought that Interro had lost her ever-loving mind until I saw that it was a newbie.
Interro+bang, what is your reasoning behind this douchebaggery?
