So. Yesterday i thought we were doing well. This morning looking for the car keys in her backpack and found a little baggy with a random iphone and a note with a phone # saying "its only crazy if someone finds out. My mouth is closed".

I pressed my soon to be ex wife on this. She said it was just about drugs and that's the guy she was gonna buy some from. On further questions she gave me the code to her "friends" phone (i still don't know who's phone this is, she says its one of her girl friends from work) and said it wasn't hers and that she was just holding it for her.

Not much was on it except a single message thread with a britny, no pictures nada. Upon further reading the messages i come to learn this "britny" was actually a man from her work. She's been having an affair for probably a year now....

. Trying to process everything. She demanded the phone back but i said i lost it. I screenshoted some messages and sent them to my phone as well as recorded some of the message thread from my phone to further verify for evidence. Im gonna go talk to my dad about a divorce lawyer he knows later today. Should i give the phone back? Idk what to do. We have 3 kids together and I've given this woman my whole world...

Any help is fully appreciated.

Edit: forgot to say I'm located in Texas if this matters. I love my kids and their well being is my #1 priority
