(Original Air Date: 11/19/07) Should you stay in a marriage with your husband if you find out a secret that disgusts you? Michelle thought she had the perfect marriage until recently, when she found out her husband of four years, Wade, was a sex addict and compulsive liar. He admits to cheating on her while she was pregnant, but says since then he's been faithful. Michelle made Wade take an online polygraph test that he failed. Why is Michelle convinced Wade is having an affair, and what proof does she say she has? Wade says there's a simple explanation and wants to take another lie detector test to prove his innocence. When Dr. Phil reveals the results of the second polygraph, will Michelle's fears be confirmed or put to rest? Concerned for the well-being of their two sets of twins, will Michelle decide to divorce Wade or hold on to the hope that their marriage can be healed? Join the discussion.

Find out what happened on the show.

Total agreement

Quote From: donna0205

Jack, the former FBI guy, said that he treated her like he would have his youngest daughter. Give me a break! What's up, do you hate your youngest daughter. Jack (employed by the show) was giving Michelle dangerous advice. Even if he didn't think Wade had done anything, he must still be sick to think he did, or even if he just made it up he is sick and dangerous. Dr Phil cut off the discussion between Wade & Jack (ex-FBI) because Jack was failing to make any sense about why he would suggest Michelle do this and Wade was making sense (even though he as extremely mad). The wife is sick (she cuts herself, takes an overdose, calls the husband and plays "mind/sex" games with him knowing he has confessed to murder/rape. Dr. Phil did not stress enough her sickness or the fact that she desperately needs psychiatric help regardless of her husband's problems. She and the husband don't need to be around those four boys at this time. Dr. Phil should have said he would contact Department of Children Services to have them look into the boys situation. The boys are in danger (if not physical, then definitely emotional danger). The 3 hours leading up to the end was so explosive and then wham! NOTHING. I agree with someone else who said that this show should not have aired until more results were in.

I was able to watch the final episode of the Michelle and Wade drama only today.  Needless to say that I was appalled.  I fail to see the expertise of a Polygraph Examiner in terms of psychological advise to a woman who is more interested in the details of her husband's "confessions" than that of the safety of her children.  It's obvious both of these individuals need some sort of therapy.  Wade is a freak, but Michelle is even freakier by allowing her children to continue with this type of behavior.  I have no respect for Michelle.  Her husband cheats, he's a pathological liar, he's had hundreds of affairs...woe is me.  It's like beating a dead horse.  I would also like to express my disbelief at the way this situation has been handled.  An employee of Dr. Phil's show, Jack, the Polygrapher, allowing to remain in contact with an emotionally disturbed woman, give her advice and tactics on how to ask questions.  Shame on you all...if something happens to those children...look to yourselves for responsibility.  Neither Wade nor Michelle have the ability to protect those children and under the guise of trying to help, you sit back and watch.  He's a sex addict, liar, etc.  She is perpetuating the drama and for the life of me, I cannot understand why.  One minute she fears for her life from this potential rapist and serial killer, the next she is lifting an Order of Protection.  Did she have an epiphany???  This was a sordid show and I regret watching.

Why waste

Quote From: ladyteal28

I say a BIG NO to staying with a man who is a cheater.  I am watching my best friend go through hell.  She found out this summer that her husband of over 34 years has been cheating on her for years and years and years.  He used ALL his vacation time for the year to go and meet women he met online.   He is also a big time porn lover. 

For years I have ignored his remarks about a 3some.... now I actualy hate this man.  And the pain his wife and grown kids are going through breaks my heart.  He even had the nerve to tell my best friend that he never really loved her..... I see a women who had worked all her life for her husband and how broken he has made her.  I am always here for her and I tell her that all the time.  I listen and give her a shoulder to cry on and tell her she was the best wife ever, and she was.  He just lost the best thing in his life.  They are now getting a divorce and selling their home that they both worked soooo hard to have.  My B.F. has worked this one job for years and years and it is slowly taking everything out of her.  She hs worked and worked tons of overtime just to keep their head about water while he just continues to add more and more debt with his endless spending, all for himself.  He has opened more credit cards in his name and run them up too....now she is looking at going bankrupt...

 

To tell you the truth there isn't one man in the world worth giving up your heart too.  I have been married for almost 40 years to a very cold, unaffectionate man....who I have BEGGED for us 'both' to get help.  No he can't be bothered.  He only cares about the kids, and grandkids and spends his retirement in either front of a t.v. or a computer screen.  We retired to travel...and here we sit...day after day.  How sad! 

I would run the other way, if I knew then what I know now.  Life is hard enough....without these selfish men.

 

 

 

Why are you still wasting your time? You still have years to enjoy yourself. I work with a sixty year old woman who lives in misery every day of her life with an alcoholic husband and we all wonder why? If it is a money issue would you not rather be broke and happy than miserable and wealthy?

Well................

Quote From: jammaw45

The reason I said she is co-dependent: She was one of the women he cheated with in his previous marriage. She knew he had a problem with pornography and continued  on with the relationship. She found out she was prego and married the guy even knowing he was a cheater and a liar. She enabled and continued the "game" herself.

 

You have to go listen to the entire show again. She revealed a lot of things that she already knew. She felt she her love would be the key to changing him. When love wasn't enough, she became an enabler by closing her eyes to the truths,because she can't seem to live without him. Ergo co-dependent.

 

Thank you

     Sorry, I'm sure you won't like what I'm about to say; but aren't you the poster who said you left your 3 sons in the "care" of your crazy ex-husband who you said you already had feelings that he may have molested one of them? Regardless you left your kids w/your bad ex? Just b/c his Mom was living w/them? That's totally weird, sorry, if you're going to judge Michelle, I'll judge you. There's more regarding my thoughts on your story, but I'll leave it at that. Don't throw stones from a glass-house. :)

What is the latest?

For goodness sake please inform us of the latest news on this situation.  The wife is losing her mind regarding this can of worms that has been opened. Is the husband a lunatic or is he in the mode of 'attention seeking behavior'?  Where is this guys parents in all this and why haven't they confronted him and had him baker acted before he does something that he can't take back?  Why hasn't his wife or Dr Phil even had him baker acted until this is sorted through?  Would someone please update us for Gods sake???!!!!

Puzzled

How tragic for all concerned in the trauma presented the last few days on the program.  I pray that Wade and Michelle and their children receive the help they need.  I am puzzled by one thing, however.  If indeed Wade killed the woman he encountered on the highway, and disposed of her body, what became of the car she had been driving?  If he left it there, wouldn't someone have wondered about it and investigated?And the same question applies for his alleged murder of the man and woman when he was in the military service.  Obviously, there are many questions remaining.

No I am not that poster, you need to go back and find that one. I have three children(2 boys,1 girl), but they lived with me not my ex. I am not living in a glass house. I know co-dependency when I see it, because I have the same problem. Which is why I am not in a relationship with anyone.
