It's real. My ex-wife seriously had hidden cameras somewhere in my home and was illegally spying on me. I suspect she was drugging me too, but that part I can't be 100% sure about.

You never wrote that there were hidden cameras. You wrote that you were paranoid about hidden cameras.

I knew there were hidden cameras because while my wife was out of the house, I pretended to have a conversation on my phone where I talked shit about her, and when she got back she was inexplicably angry at me and referenced some of the stuff I had said while pretending to be on my phone.

Buddy I'm sorry to tell you this but you're likely delusional. Or otherwise this is an outlet for your literary pursuits.

Honestly, as a reader and friend, I strongly suggest that you delete this post. Certainly it is true that men can be put into abusive situations just as well as women. I have been in such a relationship and understand that it is tough. I live with that everyday.

However, you need to stay objective, especially in the context of what you have described. Publicizing this history is not good for you legally, and some of what you have written could be spun in a bad light. Consider carefully what you are opening yourself up to. Consult with your attorney ASAP!!!

Truth is a valid defense against slander. I was mistreated in a very abusive relationship and I think my wife should face accountability for that. Additionally, I have reason to suspect that she was recording me illegally. If she was editing her footage in a way that makes me look bad, I want to get ahead of that so that she can't present a heavily distorted narrative of events. I'm very confident that my wife was trying to project to other people the misleading image that we had an open relationship so that if she was ever caught cheating, society wouldn't judge her. I want to be very clear - publicly - that we had no such agreement so that if it ever does come out that she was cheating on me, she will face all of the social stigma and public hatred that she deserves.

I appreciate your advice, but I am much more concerned about my own reputation than protecting the reputation of somebody who abused me throughout the latter half of the relationship. If my wife wants to take me to court over this, I can handle it.
