So I called my wife...

...the other day with a calling card, and it rang and rang - finally it picked up. On the other line I heard what I thought was my wife moaning. I continued to listen as I thought she was teasing me, so I continue to listen for a bit, and then I hear man in the background. WTF??? I'm thinking. My adrenaline spiked, and I was ready to break something. I look at my phone, and sure enough I had dialed the right number, and was wondering what the hell was going on. So 2 minutes later, after I dialed the access number again, enter my pin, then dial her number, she picks up, everything seems normal, she's calm, baby is crying in the background. I start inquiring where she is, who's there, what was she doing - her answer, nothing, just taking care of the baby. So after a few minutes of questioning, I tell her what happened, and she just laughed it off. "Oh you're jealous, as if you think I was with someone else." As things seemed normal I believed her, never before had she given me any reason to doubt her. Anyhow a few days later I began to think about what the chances are that I would dial her number wrong, maybe 1 in 100? Why anyone would pick up in the middle of the act? Was it an accident? A tigre trying to rub it in my face? It started really bugging me again, so a couple of days later I told her so, "you know, what I heard the other day really bugs me." "You're serious?" she asked, "I thought you were joking about that.", "as if you think I would do that to you, I take care of our baby all day, would never do that to you, and would never leave the baby unattended..." her response seemd genuine, and I told her so. At this point she had lost control of her emotions, was crying, and didn't want to talk to me. Something had convinced me she was telling the truth, even though it seemed that to believe her, it was as though what had happened was against the odds, but I did anyways.

Things were going well, I didn't think about it much, even though it lingered in the back of mind a bit. Anyhow, about 2 weeks later I called a friend in the DR with my phone card, it rang rang rang, picked up, moaining on the other line - it was exactly like the other day, a recording. I checked in with the phone card people, turns out somehow I got transfered to a Jamaican sex line. And to confirm, again it happened to me today. Im glad this phone thing happened twice, it almost put an end to my relationship. Still kinda comical. If you use phonecards, especially HOT out of canada, if this happens get in contact with the company before you make any accusations.

Its actually happend twince again since. Thing is it doesnt charge more than a regular call to the dr either. And what's even crepier is that there is not intro or anything advising you what's going on, it just goes straight to the thick of it. And the guy on the help desk was all like "don't worry" "you need to have more faith in your wife...". Thing is, probably the majority of people using these cards are contacting their husband or their wife in whatever country they may be in. And as I said before, my wife (or fiance I should say) never gave me any reasons to doubt her, and even though it seemed as though my mind was playing tricks on me, I still believed her - even went and bought her a ring in the midst of all this. But you have to say it is truly troublesome that this happened, hell, it's not a far stretch to think that somebody could get hurt physically because of something like this. I still think they should reimburse me for my drinking related expenses
