What, exactly, do you mean by "use past txt messages"?

Maybe I can nip this exercise in the bud:

KY is a no-fault state and does not require (nor allow) a finding of "fault" in divorce proceedings. All that matters is that the marriage is "broken". If you are worried that your husband is going to try to present evidence to the court that you were out sleeping with other people, don't. It simply doesn't matter for divorce.

Custody battle if that is part of it. Cohabitation for purposes of alimony. I can go on.
After I asked the question of you, the custody part of things came to mind, but the OP didn't really mention kids or alimony (then again, she didn't mention much at all.) ;)
