Private call for my husband?

Question

I had a private call today, it was a very young child 3/4 asked is my daddy (his name) there? I don't know what to think..thoughts?

Answer 1

Well, I would talk with your husband about it. I've had similar, not a child though, things happen before. I've gotten phone calls asking for a man by my husband's name, including our last name, but this man graduated school 20 years before my husband was even born. There are 3 men in our city with the same first and last names.

I've had 2 instances where, 2 different pediatrician offices, had patients with the same first and last names as 2 of our daughters. 1 of them even was born just 3 days before our oldest daughter so we had to be very careful to make sure they scheduled the right child. Obviously, the other parents' insurance company didn't see the humor in the wrong billings. :)

I've gotten phone calls asking for a woman by my mother's name but she wasn't looking for my mother.

I had a woman call once who gave her name, Pearlene. I have an Aunt Pearlene so I thought it was her...hadn't talked to her in a while and after a few minutes we realized she had the wrong number.

Mistakes do happen. You know your husband better than any one of us here, obviously. Hopefully, it was just a wrong number. If not, seek counseling and see if y'all can work through it. Best wishes to you!!

Answer 2

Well, I would start calling one of your children by the kids name that called. If you do this once in a while and then look at the way he looks at you, you might get a read on him. If you do this once in a while, call one of your kids by the wrong name, and then just watch him, he might make a mistake. I am sure he has another family, you just have to catch him. Maybe he will call you by another name or something.

You can also start following him or get a private PI to follow him. You cna just spend some money on gps system and so you know where he is all the time.

Of course it could be a joke, or it if your husband has a common name like john, david, or stephen then you are crazy.

Answer 3

Are you possitive it wasn't kids playing a prank? Do you have a listed phone number in your husbands name, thats how they could have gotten it. Do you have kids that would have friends making prank calls? If you don't have caller ID, try calling your phone carrier and see if they can get a history on the number for you, just to ease your mind. Unless you have more concrete proof then just a kid, I wouldn't make it an issue with your husband. Think of this in a logical sense, if this were true, the mother of that kid, not the kid, would've called and started fiiling you in on his second life. Another point, if he had a child with another woman, she would be demanding child support and that he couldn't keep hidden from you. My guess is that it was some kids playing around.I hope I helped you a little.

Answer 4

I like the idea about calling one of your kids the other kid's name.. but I don't think you would have know the kids name..
Try calling the number back and seeing who picks up - and then seeing if it was a wrong number - if he DOES have another family and they don't know about you -she will be just as glad to catch him as you are..
A little kid doesn't know how to make a call private.. if they called from a cell phone - there is ways to make it private every time you call - The kid could have grabbed his mom's phone and hit redial or hit "DADDY" or something like that..

Try going to Melissadata.com and you can see where the call was made from.. I think it tells you if it was a landline or a cell

Answer 5

Either it's a prank, or the boy's mother told the little boy to call & ask for his "Daddy"... meaning that possibly your hubby has a child he doesn't know about.

Do you have caller ID?

You need to have a frank discussion with your husband. If he admits to an affair, he needs to have a DNA test to assure he's the boys father & you need to decide if you want to see this through... or not.

If he denies it, then I'm not sure where to go with that.

Good luck!

Answer 6

hang on to the phone one sec. children playing pranks?. some vicious person putting a child up to the call ( what would a child know) pure coincidence that the number closely resembles yours and the dads name is the same first name as your hubby. Don't jump to any conclusions there probably is a very simple explanation and this may never happen again- if it continues then I'd be concerned.

Answer 7

Are you sure it was indeed for your husband and not just a wrong number asking ironically for the same name? If not...ask your husband. Do you know of his last relationship? When it ended? Have you known him to be unfaithful? Confront him regardless, no sense in dreading the unknown

Answer 8

Has he ever given you a reason to doubt him? Before you ask him do some snooping, sorry! I know its wrong! THen again if the communication is good you should have an open and honest relationship so you should be able to flat out ask him.

Answer 9

Somebody with a crush on your husband is playing a nasty prank. If it were a real situation the call would've been from the mother,not a toddler.

Answer 10

Hmmm....does your husband spend enough time away from your home to have another family? Like does he 'travel' for work alot? I would *69 and see who answers...... these days, anything is possible.
