I think she suspected but wasn't prepared to have her suspicions confirmed. That is such a shot to the gut. I would just say 'so how's Laura doing?" or something like that. Asking gives people an opportunity to lie. Acting like you already know, and she does, catches people off guard. He wont know how much she knows..but he'll know she knows enough.
Yes. She needs to buy some flowers, add that card, walk up to him with them behind her back. Say "so how's Laura doing?" He's going to say "what huh who?" Then pull them out and say "pretty great I'd say." 😂
I feel so badly for her. I would like to say this. Every spouse out there HAS to take part in the finances and has the right to know every detail of the financial situation. You have to know every account, every credit card, the Insurance particulars, the mortgage details, any stocks or investments, pensions etc. If something should happen to the other spouse, you have to know how to handle the accounts, the insurance, the mortgage etc. Don't get caught if the unexpected should happen. Educate yourself now so that if your spouse is in an accident, you are not caught out trying to locate all pertinent information. My mother had no clue about anything financial...not because she couldn't have handled it intellectually, but because my step father was the "patriarch" who was threatened by an intelligent woman.
So is she a house wife? Is that why she always brushes things under the table. If she tells him she knows now, then it blows up her would and living situation. She will have to actually get a job and support herself and children.
