> **pool** , you and your wife sound like you have major communication problems. She blows hot and cold and you just shut down. You really should try to get some counseling now, so you don’t wind up playing mind games via Skype during your whole deployment. It’s also not a helathy relationship to be modeling in the future to your child.\<snip\>

This is exactly what I’m picking up on, too.

> Why on earth would your lover’s panties be in your laundry? God, he must be the worst cheater in the history of the world if that somehow happens. “Oh, just throw 'em in the hamper - my wife will wash them for you.”

My fun has been, when my and my ex split up, there was alot of misc clothing laying around that was just bagged up and some of it was not mine. My living arrangement was not very spacious and I ended up tearing into a few of the bags looking for some items. g/f comes over and wants to help clean up a bit and finds a piece of womens clothing among the stuff.

then I get to watch the faces  
😕 :eek: :dubious: :mad:

> This happened at my house once. My BF did his laundry in the apartment laundromat, and when I was folding, i found purple panties (larger than my size). I confronted him, and he was completely confused. He figured it must have already been in he washer or dryer when he put his clothes in.

After doing laundry for a year in my old apartment building I’d accumulated three pairs of panties. I’d pin them to the laundry bulletin board when I did the next load. It happens.
