How do I protect my rights in the case of a divorce?
Question Details:
My wife has been talking to some guy on the phone multiple hours late at night when everyone is asleep. I would have never found out but I saw it on our cell phone bill. She pays the bills so I usually never see it but this one I saw. After I discovered it I confronted her. I found out it was and old high school friend that she reconnected with on Facebook. They talk and text non-stop all day and night when I am not around. She claims there is nothing going on. What can I do legally to find the truth? Should I keep copies of phone bill just in case? A couple years ago she went through a phase were she said she wasn't sure if she still loved me.

It certainly never hurts to keep information, such as the phone bills, "just in case." If you were able to prove that the two of them were somewhere alone together, that would be "opportunity" for adultery, while the phone records would tend to show "inclination," which is usually all the proof you would need.
You can hire a private detective to trail her. Less certain, in terms of things you can do without violating her rights, would be things like hiding a GPS device in her car.
