“My dad just got busted last week for this! So normally he just drives his own car, but recently he has been using my moms car a bunch to go run errands because it gets better mileage. Well he used it so often that the Bluetooth in the car automatically connected to his phone when he and my mom got in the car to go to my grandpa’s funeral aaaaaaaand queue the car reading out loud a text from my dads mistress. After 36+ years of marriage and 8 children my parents just separated. Thanks for f**king up our family more than it already was dad!”

“Not me but a friend was living with her partner through lockdown, thought he was going for long dog walks or to visit his mum. Turns out he was actually going to his pregnant girlfriend’s house.”

“One of my staff found out her husband was having an affair at the beginning of lockdown. While we were waiting for IT equipment we had staff log onto the system using their own devices and her husband had saved a hotel booking confirmation to the desktop of the laptop she hadn’t used for a while. Idiot.”

“I’ve heard a few stories of people getting caught due to the fact that constant texting became real obvious. One case of someone getting caught for inviting people from a dating app over to the house while everyone else was out working. Personally I have no idea how people find the time to have a job and 2 relationships. Just ridiculous.”

“COVID made it easier for my husband to cheat. He was laid off for 8 weeks and I was still working full time. My workload doubled so I would be home later than usual and extremely exhausted. He would sneak them in the back door while I was asleep at night.”

“So my friend got a call from her coworker at 2am. Coworker was drunk as hell and was stranded. My friend picked her up and offered her the couch to sleep on and sober up until morning when busses would run again. My friend woke up to find her boyfriend and the coworker having sex right next to her in their bed. She described it as being passionate and almost romantic. My friend freaked out and left right away. Few days later, people start finding out. The coworker claimed it was rape but didn’t want to go to the cops. The boyfriend says he was too drunk. The coworkers own boyfriend decided to stay with her.”

“My neighbor got busted cheating on his “corona-diet” that he and his wife were doing. He’d go “out for a run” up to Little Ceasar’s, eat a pizza and drink a soda, then come home sweaty and directly take a shower and brush his teeth to hide it from his wife who was diligently doing her part in the diet.”

“So the person I thought was my girlfriend was actually having an affair with me.. Lockdown made her way less available, especially during normal daytime hours which had never been an issue before. Started getting very suspicious when she would only speak on the phone in the car. There were a lot of other red flags, but lockdown made it way harder for her to hide her bullshit.”

“My father and I caught my mother in what we found out was a 6+ year affair with her boss at work. She went out to get ice cream and left us her phone to solve a word puzzle she was stuck on. Dad apparently was suspicious and went through her txts… it got real ugly when she got home and our family has been in ruins since.”

“There’s a whole group of men with other children and family who they can’t visit because of quarantine. Hard to find an excuse to leave the house for long periods of time when you now work from home. Them other kids/family must wonder why dad is never home anymore.”

“My husband now knows my weight gain is from a love of Ritz crackers and Boursin instead of not getting my keto macros right.”

12

“My parents broke quarentine rules to have a family friend over and my mom ended up sleeping with him :/”

“Answering this on behalf of a friend: the lockdown seemed to make it easy for him to get out of the house. He would go on daily bike rides in the middle of that day and she (his coworker) would pick him up around the corner and they’d check-in at a local hotel. All was great until the shit hit the fan…”

“I managed to be putting away laundry while working and walked by the bathroom while my wife was having phone sex with a guy in six states away. Went through the phone records and tracked down this had been going on for a significant amount of time. The meetups stopped when she couldn’t travel for work.”

“I finally found out that my now-ex was cheating on me for the entirety of our relationship! The quarantine didn’t even end the affair it just brought it to light. She was still seeing him, increasing my risk for exposure to covid.”

“Well, it made cheating on my school exams easier if you were wondering.”
