The texting between the father and daughter-in-law was the worst part.

Posting anonymously to Reddit, the horrified husband said he found out that his 37-year-old wife has been sexting his 61-year-old father for the past few weeks.

“We have two young kids. My mom and dad are divorced and my wife, kids and I are always hanging out with my dad,” he began in the post, setting the real life scene.

While fixing an app on his father’s phone, he came across a suspect message from his own wife.

Though her contact was saved under a different name, he did some snooping and discovered it was indeed her number.

“I then started reading through the texts. I only had about 15-20 seconds before he came back for his phone, but I already saw him sending shirtless photos and the two commenting emojis about how hot their bodies are.”

The texts also included messages in which the wife called herself the father-in-law’s “girlfriend,” and ones that vocalized her desire for her husband to move out.

In a panic, he left his father’s house without telling him what he saw, and instead called his own mother to release some of the pain he felt.

“My mom came over to my dad’s house and we confronted them about it.”

That’s when the wife explained how the strange relationship began.

“It started as friendly and then got more intimate to the point where they were texting all day long and my dad was sending countless d*** pics and she was sending sexy selfies, including bras and even a topless photo.”

The father apparently asked for even more explicit photos of her body parts and expressed his desire to be with her.

“[He was] making comments about performing oral sex and even [said] that they should basically be together or marry each other.

“We are all supposed to go on vacation next week to the beach and my dad was texting about how hard it will be to see her and he needs to ‘drain his b***s’.”

The husband even believes his wife was planning a romantic getaway with his father soon.

Although the pair claimed that nothing physical happened yet, they apparently insinuated that it would have progressed to that if they hadn’t been caught.

The wife’s reasoning for her behavior, however, is perhaps the craziest part.

“She says she was just doing it to make my dad happy because he’s lonely and he’s nice to her and like a father figure since she doesn’t have a good relationship with her parents.

“She commented that I got fat, and my dad has a fit body.”

She also claimed her husband was “mean to her,” which is partially why she turned to his dad.

“We have two young boys and I don’t want them to have separated parents. Just looking for opinions and conversation as I figure out my next move.”

Reddit users were instantly disgusted by the whole thing.

“There is no course for this except divorce. I’d want to vomit anytime I looked at either of them,” one wrote.

“Your wife is a rat and so is your father,” a second put bluntly.

And another passionately shared his thoughts:

“Your marriage is over. There is nothing that can be done to save it. You will never again trust your wife, and nor should you – her justification alone (she did it to cheer your father up? What sort of reason is that?) is a lie.

“Two young boys with divorced parents will be a lot happier than two young boys living with two parents that don’t love each other. As for your father…. No, I have nothing. Cut all ties for a bit and start seeing a therapist is the best suggestion I have.”
