my husband thinks when the phone rings and I say wrong number , it is really a man calling for me. when sales people call , he thinks i am just saying it was a sales person calling. i am so scared for the phone to ring in the evening! i never answer it now and he thinks it is just a man making an excuse because he answered the phone. help? how can i convince him otherwise? i look guilty when i am not!

Tell the caller " I will let you speak with my husband" and hand him the phone. If it is a sales person, they will make their pitch to him....AND then there can be peace...

I really hope you are NOT cheating on him.

You can't proove to him otherwise, because he has it fixed in his head that you are fooling around. It is a self esteem issue, a control issue, a fear based issue.. and really has anothing to do with you.. even though he is dragging you into his emotional problems. He may appear to be confident, on top of things etc.. but if he is acting this way, he is lacking self esteem and feelings of self worth. If the relationship means enough to you, than you will stay with this man despite his issues. If it doeesn't mean enough to you, then find a man who believes in himself. You are worth being with such a man.

Sounds like he doesn't trust you. Simple fact is you most likley cannot change his behaviour only he can.

A marriage without trust simply will not work. Give him no choice- counselling for his trust issues or you walk. You need to take a stand now before things get worse.

I am only guessing, but I think your husband must be a very jealous person and also very insecure. Before this situation escalates, if you cannot talk it out with him, I would suggest you both PLEASE get marriage counseling! If you two love each, I know you do not want your marriage ruined simply because of his misconceptions ~~ GOOD LUCK!

It isn't for you to convince him of the wrong number, what you need to convince him of is his insecurity. If you can't convince him that the problem is his, then you need to convince him to get into individual therapy--unless, of course, he has a good reason to worry. If not, then he needs help.

The accusers are the biggest perpetrators sister. Check your man's cell phone bill.

It sounds like he has a problem or maybe he is doing something wrong. I would be careful or try to pay attention to how he does things.
