Infidelity 101 – Tell-tale Signs of a Cheating Spouse

Once you have lived with someone for a while, you start to feel comfortable with day to day activities, taking a lot for granted. However, something happens out of place from the normal daily routine, and red flags go up everywhere. Some of these red flags raise suspicions that your spouse might be cheating on you. Listed here are some of the changes that might be due to a cheating spouse and a careful eye will alert you to them.

Suddenly you notice your spouse spending less time with you and more time alone. This might involve late nights at work, doing things alone that you once did together and avoiding communication and interactions with you. While this might be due in part to an issue your spouse is having, such as work-related stress, financial stress, or emotional stress, it might also be a sign that they are up to no good. Keeping tabs on your spouse is the best way to deal with this. If they know you are just a step behind, it will give them less chance to try anything.

Changes to appearance including what they are wearing and personal grooming could alert you to something suspect. When someone wears the same styles and colors for a long time, suddenly to make a drastic change, it could be to impress that new significant other. Older spouses might want to look younger for a new flame and so there could be changes to hairstyle, colognes/perfumes and other grooming. If you are close with your spouse, you usually know about stresses in their life. Changes like these – out of the blue – indicate more than meets the eye.

While there comes a point in most relationships when the “honeymoon” is over, this time could also alert you to straying eyes. Relationships become comfortable, people let their guards down and the two are more relaxed with each other. If your spouse starts to be less interested in sexual activity – specifically with you – there is a chance they are getting it somewhere else. You should easily notice that they don’t kiss you as much, they are less attracted to you or have any, or little desire for sex. Changes to intimacy might also just be related to self-esteem – they do not feel attractive to you and are embarrassed of their physical body. However, do not pass this up as a moment to look at this as something more than that.

Feeling suspicious of your spouse is not something that is easy do deal with. No one wants to play second string and feel like they are losing their loved one.
