I went to the other town because of my work. Then I left my son at home with my nanny. The nanny told me that my husband left the house when my son got sick. But, when I asked my husband, he said that he was at home all day. He was a little bit angry with me, and I asked him in plain tone. He asked me if the nanny reported his leaving. And, I answered no, just regular talking no reports. I don't know if I could trust him again. At that time I just quetly leaving him in the living room and went to my bedroom wondering Why my husband does that? What should I do if this happen again? Should I be angry with him? I feel tired to argue with him because he can easily make excuse and argumentation.

I think that when it comes to a relationship that all parties involved should be honest with each other. My husband and I have an honesty policy with each other and because of that we hardly ever have confrontations with each other. We rarely fight and we are able to talk about almost everything that goes on in our lives. It is great for us and I think it is something that I think that your husband and yourself should try to work on as well.

I would be very angry because lying is one thing I cannot stand. I cought my husband out doing the same thing a few years ago, not the same situation though. Anyway, he lied about something to my face and I knew for a fact he was lying to me and I told him this. He tried to deny it and continued and the discussion got rather heated but he now realises that he is better off telling me the truth about something than lying to me, regardless of what it is. I agree with the first person who responded. You need to be honest with him and tell him that you know for a fact he went out and if he asks, tell him how you know, then question where he went. I hope this is useful to you. All the best.
