A Scale, Suspicious Notifications, and a Person with Keys to Our House: What I Found Behind My Husband’s Lies

26

When Nicole started receiving mysterious notifications from the digital bathroom scale her husband brought home, she brushed it off as a glitch.

But as the same numbers appeared week after week, her suspicions grew: Was Justin hiding something — or someone? What she uncovered SHOOK HER TO HER CORE.

What would you do if strange notifications started popping up on your phone?

Like, ones you couldn’t explain?

Because that’s exactly what happened to me, and let me tell you — it led to one hell of a discovery.

It started with a bathroom scale — a digital one.

My husband, Justin, brought it home one random Saturday. “Let’s stay healthy together,” he said with this casual smile like it was no big deal.

I wasn’t thrilled, but I played along. We stepped on it to “test” it out. Mine read 134.4 lbs, and his weight was 189.5 lbs.

“Wow, I didn’t realize I was pushing 190,” he mumbled, scratching the back of his neck.

I noticed his hand slightly trembling as he stepped off.

“Justin? Are you okay?”

“Yeah, just… just surprised, that’s all.” He wouldn’t meet my eyes. “I used to be so fit in college.”

“We all change with time,” I said, touching his arm.

He flinched away so subtly that I almost missed it.

I thought that might’ve been the end — just another gadget to collect dust in the bathroom. However, weeks later, these weird notifications started popping up on my phone. I’d linked the scale to an app when we first set it up, and one day, while sitting at work, I got a message:

“Unidentified user: weight 152.1 lbs.”

I thought maybe Justin had stepped on the scale.

But he weighed 189.5 pounds. Then it happened again. And again.

I got these notifications three times a week. Same weight. Same time.

Something didn’t add up.

At dinner one night, I asked him casually, “Hey, have you been using the scale while I’m at work?”

He didn’t even look up from his plate. “Nope. It’s probably the kids playing with it.”

“Three times a week at the exact same time?” I pressed, raising an eyebrow.

“Geez, Nicole!” His fork clattered against the plate.

“Why are you interrogating me about a damn scale?”

“I’m not interrogating you. I’m just asking a simple question. And the numbers are, I don’t know… weird.

You weigh 189.5 pounds. But the notification said 152.1. Am I missing something?”

The story doesn’t end here — it continues on the next page.
