Or, at least have intentions to cheat.

I was fixing his internet, and when I opened the browser, a saved session popped up and it was a Craigslist ad in the adult services section. I didn't have a chance to get a good look since he was sitting right there, but when I was going for the home icon I misfired and caught a brief glimpse of some other Craigslist sex ads in his history.

Gonna go back and have a closer look at things when I get the opportunity to be in the house alone, but otherwise, what do I do about this? My mind is seriously blown right now.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

take out an ad in craigslist, hope he picks yours and then SURPRISE DAD!!!

Maybe they're trying to get someone for a hawt threesome.

 

[funkmastergeneral]

Probably looking for another man to join him and your mom, she's into DP and other kinky shit

Winner

 

[nomster]

Could be nothing, I read those for laughs sometimes

 

[Jangaroo]

Wow, that's a terrible predicament. Wishful thinking would have me say that maybe he accidently clicked on the links.

Could be nothing, I read those for laughs sometimes

And that.

 

[ATF487]

I look at that shit all the time, it's hilarious

I don't condone snooping on him, but I'd wait to see an email or something before getting all worked up.

 

[Subliminal]

Internet history cannot be trusted.

Do you have:

Proof it was him
Proof he went there intentionally
Proof that he wasn't just doing it for a joke

 

[KHarvey16]

Ever look in a store without having any intention of actually purchasing anything?

 

[mrkgoo]

Since when was browser history a proof of anything?

He could've been looking at it for a laugh, maybe someone forwarded him a funny reading post or whatever.

I could post a link right now, put "Haha - click ->", you'll click, and BAM! you're cheater or have intentions.

For sure look into it, but don't think too much about it.

 

[threenote]

Maybe your mom was on Craigslist. Don't be so quick to blame your step dad.

 

[smoothj]

confront him on it if the evidence is true..

hear him out and decide from there

 

[Semblance]

Was your mother, not your step dad. She's looking for some cock on the side.

 

[woodsey1982]

Does he live with your Mom? Maybe she's looking into drinking from the furry cup??

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

This is going to be fucking balloon boy all over again, isn't it? You are the devil's advocate that becomes the devil out of pride.

 

[Agnostic]

Well, judging by my history I have used anal beads and atomic weapons.

 

[Solideliquid]

Or, you could leave your parents the fuck alone and respect their privacy? As in, don't go snooping around your dad's computer.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

Well, judging by my history I have used anal beads and atomic weapons.

There's really no better combo than that.

 

[Lost Fragment]

Internet history cannot be trusted.

Do you have:

Proof it was him

He's the only one that uses that particular computer.

Proof he went there intentionally

Reasonable to assume he did, considering the multiple pages in his history.

Proof that he wasn't just doing it for a joke

This is the one I don't have. I don't know exactly what his intent was, and yeah, it could just be a misunderstanding. But you have to admit it doesn't look good.

Ever look in a store without having any intention of actually purchasing anything?

Why the local Craigslist classifieds, though? There are a million porn sites on teh net if he just wanted to see some tittays.

 

[Joel Was Right]

What a douche

 

[PoliceCop]

This is going to be fucking balloon boy all over again, isn't it? You are the devil's advocate that becomes the devil out of pride.

What extraordinary evidence do you have to support these claims?

 

[Akim]

I look at craigslist casual encounter shit all the time for fun, doesn't mean I'm gonna do it

 

[raphier]

What extraordinary evidence do you have to support these claims?

Another "It's crazy, let's post this on GAF" thread.

It's turning into another IMDB "Is this appropriate for my 7-years old nephew?" trolling.

 

[KHarvey16]

This is going to be fucking balloon boy all over again, isn't it? You are the devil's advocate that becomes the devil out of pride.

Uh huh, sure thing. You know I can think of a name for someone who thinks this evidence is conclusive.

Craigslist is like wikipedia. I know I can start off looking at the best of list, then some free shit and before I know it I've lost an hour. Unless you have other reasons to think he's cheating this discovery means nothing.

 

[Socreges]

What extraordinary evidence do you have to support these claims?

None. I just constantly see him making ridiculous arguments against the grain. His analogy sucks and he must know that.

Uh huh, sure thing. You know I can think of a name for someone who thinks this evidence is conclusive.

OK. What does that have to do with me?

 

[Gospel]

Investigate more when you get the chance.
Or confront him. If you do that and he lies, you probably won't believe him and you'll be back to square one, so I say snoop more.

 

[Escape Goat]

Make like 50 ads and hopefully he'll pick yours. Then when he shows up at your hotel you can say "Why don't you have a seat over there...would you like a drink?"

 

[KHarvey16]

None. I just constantly see him making ridiculous arguments against the grain. His analogy sucks and he must know that.

Against what grain? What thread are you reading?

 

[jamesinclair]

Could be nothing, I read those for laughs sometimes

Yup, Ive browsed with no intention of sending a message out

 

[SapientWolf]

Could be nothing, I read those for laughs sometimes

Same. Alone it's not conclusive but if you can find other evidence it makes a better case.

 

[Meadows]

He was probably looking at it for a laugh, I look at them every now and again, but wouldn't ever do anything.

 

[xelios]

I'd hate to know I was judged by my browsing history. :lol

It doesn't necessarily mean he's going to cheat unless you have some other reason to believe. Craigslist shit has been in my history before and I've never cheated (seven years).

I'd just stay out of it unless you come upon something conclusive. You don't want to needlessly upset your mom or cause problems between them.

Snoop the shit out of that shit man

 

[Socreges]

Against what grain? What thread are you reading?

No no, not so much this thread as others. I guess I was just more struck by the ridiculous analogy and felt you posited it because it fell in line with your characteristic 'there must be another explanation' stuff. Anyway I'll get off your back!

 

[Lost Fragment]

Thing is that my step dad's not the kind of person that would look at that sort of thing just for a laugh.

But yeah, I agree that it's not enough to even confront him about. Gonna do some snooping around though and if I find something more conclusive, then I'll confront him about it.

 

[ChubbyHuggs]

Maybe they're trying to get someone for a hawt threesome.

That would be very disturbing for him if it was true.

 

[Stabby McSter]

I'd hate to know I was judged by my browsing history. :lol

I have gaps in my browsing history that range from hours to days. Sometimes I forget private mode is on.

yay private mode

If you made a hot ad saying you want someone in his age range & description, and made the loc really close by and could get him to reply to it you'd be getting there.

That would be pretty creepy though. :lol

 

[mjc]

I browse those from time to time just for the funnies, but dig into the history some more if you think he's messing around.

 

[dustytruly]

That would be pretty creepy though. :lol

i imagine it'd work though?

i mean if he IS looking through the ads in hopes of getting laid... that'd be the perfect ad

he'd HAVE to reply

 

[Dipper145]

What was it about? You give no description of the posts.

I'll just assume your mom and your step dad are looking to spice up their sex life by introducing more people.



I think you should sign up.

 

[Q8D3vil]

black mail him

Yeah, this is a really good idea. Think I'm gonna try it :lol

 

[MNC]

snooPING AS usual are we

 

[Majima Everywhere System]

Not your problem to solve. Your mom married the douche and wanted you to think of him as "dad". Now you have plenty of rational reasons to not like your step dad. Think of all the step kids that don't even get that!

 

[aoi tsuki]

Even if he is cheating, it's generally best to just turn a blind eye. For all you know, your mom is doing the same.

Snooping in cases like this often leads to knowing more than you really want to know, whether it's cheating, or cuckholding, swinging, crossdressing, etc.

Of course, you're probably already going to snoop because it's so easy to do these days...

Why the local Craigslist classifieds, though? There are a million porn sites on teh net if he just wanted to see some tittays.

Before Facebook got huge, i'd go to personals sites and do searches in my area. Aside from the M4W and W4M, i'd do M4M and W4W searches too. Found a few people i know, specifically my best friend from middle school who i found out to be gay. We've since reconnected.

There's also the curiousity angle. i'm sure CL got a big boost in traffic after the CL murders simply because people were curious what was on CL. But curiousity doesn't equal intent or infer a history.

Edit: For the record, i'm for minding your own business.

 

[Haunted]

Could be nothing, I read those for laughs sometimes

pretty much my take on this

Yeah, this is a really good idea. Think I'm gonna try it :lol

...but this development is much more fun. :lol *grabs popcorn*

keep us updated.

 

[coopolon]

Sounds like conclusive evidence to me. Tell your mom about it. And since she might not be convinced, just tell her that you actually caught him in a threesome, preferably with one of her friends. If you're going to leap to conclusions, why not go all the way?
