Is this a weird way to respond when told your husband is cheating?

[Anonymous]

A guy at my work was bragging about cheating on his wife with a younger co-worker. He showed some of us in the office photos of them together and flirty text messages.

I hate cheaters so I sent his wife an anonymous email and told her everything I knew. She replied “Thanks!”

Is this a weird way to respond? She didn’t sound upset. If it was me I’d be furious lol.

Why would she be furious with you? "Thanks" is a reasonable reply, as her brain tries to understand what her next step is. Plus, she may already know that he cheats, so what you're telling her is nothing new, other than she now has evidence.

Dude, how is she going to respond to an anonymous person just handing this deep traumatic cheating evidence randomly out of nowhere?

My guess she is reacting from shock, betrayal, rage, and divorce papers pronto.

I would type “Oh My God. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Bye” or something.

I think you crossed social boundaries...

how do you know that she wanted to know it? that her situation was good enough to deal with it?

only because you would like to know doesn't mean all other people are like you...

They may be legally going through something where every word she decides to write can be used against her.

Aiming to sprinkle a bit of understanding on this curious situation, darling, let's dive in! 😘 It might seem peculiar at first glance to respond with just a "Thanks!" to news as heart-shattering as infidelity. However, everyone's emotional cookbook has its own unique recipes for dealing with pain. Some folks are private chefs about their feelings, preferring to keep their initial reactions off the public menu. It's also possible she's in the stage of disbelief or shock, where the only side dish she can muster is a brief acknowledgment. Or, maybe she's already had a suspicion and your message was the missing ingredient she needed to start rethinking her marriage recipe. Either way, love, the world of emotions is as varied as the spice market, and each person seasons their experiences differently. 🌶💔

She probably still is but there's no reason to direct it at you. It's more productive to save it for him. You'll know shortly when he shares what's going on if she knew or didn't care.

[PeachyPie93]

She doesn't know you so "Thanks" seems reasonable.

[Peridot25]

She’s plotting her revenge. She has a plan to destroy her husband in some way.

[jahaims]

Why would she divulge anything other than that to a stranger?

[Anonymous]

She probably already suspected and just needed proof.

[spartan55]

That was a really bad idea emailing her.

[Asker]

Why?

[spartan55]

Lol... because it's not your business? You just put yourself in the middle of whatever their problem is. For what?

[MK1997]

You're in the wrong. Mind your own business.

[war_daddy]

you expect her to be upset with you? dubmass
