Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Long story short, I have been diagnosed bipolar with severe PTSD from a shit childhood. 

About a year into our marriage, shortly after we had our son, I started cruising personal adds on Craigslist (not a thing anymore), signing up for hookup sites for men and women under hidden emails. 

My wife should be a private detective because she found everything. 

She is hysterical and unreasonable about all of this. I never met up with anyone. I did flirt and tell some people I was leaving her and didn’t love my wife. I did it for that rush of excitement that I don’t get from her.

Since our baby, she is all about him. Don’t get me wrong, I get it. But I get bored and curious. Sometimes I will meet people online, leave the house while the family is sleeping and have great conversations with great people over the phone. 

She thinks it’s inappropriate because of the things I say, but it’s all bullshit because it is online. 

I think she needs to understand that in my eyes it’s not cheating. Luckily, she isn’t that kind of person and is faithful to a fault. I wish she would get over it and let me be me while she handles shit at home. Why is that so bad?
