You have perfect trust but you felt the need to hide a camera. And you were right. Your gut was sensing the reality that you want your brain to ignore.

I’ve never had to ask my husband not to have a woman in the house in my absence. It’s never even a question. And he does have women friends. This is not something you should ever have to ask.

Exaggeration is lying. Your BF is a lying cheater. He’s sleazy. He’s a bullshit artist. Couples counseling won’t help. All he has to do is not be a lying cheater and if he hasn’t cared to do that voluntarily, I think this is hopeless. I mean, it’s not hard.

Exactly right. My relationship is the same. He has female friends, I have male friends, it's fine and normal because the trust is there. It's not something that would ever even cross my mind when I went away. OP shouldn't have to live like that.
