Have you noticed your partner getting home at odd times in the night? Do you notice the amount of company functions that your partner has gone to without you? They take their “friends” out more often then they use to? These signs could mean your partner is doing more than working, they are cheating.
Some Common Signs of Cheating
Can’t find some money? If your partner is hiding bills, only tells you the amounts to be paid, locks bills in files that you cannot get into, shreds them, or even has them sent to work, there is probably something going on that you don’t know about. Their attitude begins to change? Most often, they don’t want to be around their family, and their money seems more important.
You feel avoided. They feel annoyed by kids, and their job. They become defensive when you ask them about affairs, and they seem more secretive about things, and start to become lazy. Their daily schedule begins to look different to you, and they leave suspicious items, like gift cards and gifts, laying around. They begin to become protective of items like their cell phone, and PDA. You could find pictures or unknown numbers on those items, and they wouldn’t want you to question these. Are they coming home late and smelling like alcohol.
There are other signs of cheating like picking fights and stomping out of the house, forgetting to wear their wedding ring, refusing to go shopping with you, and requesting that you go see your family alone. Your partner will smell different, and care more about what they look like than they normally have. They work long hours; work on weekends or days off. They don’t answer their phone when you call, ever. They are on the phone more then normal, and they get messages long after you have gone to bed.
Your partner may turn the accusation around on you, and say that your cheating. Your partner may be less interested in sex. They may be figuring out your schedule constantly, so they can have their affair work out.
You need to listen to your head, and not your heart. You partner could hurt you more than you expected if you don’t follow your gut.
