Is Your Partner Cheating On You? Look For These Signs

By on February 19, 2011

Do you – a balanced, sensible, mature person not given to kneejerk, dramatic reactions – sense that things are not quite going right in your relationship?

Do you suspect your partner of cheating on you but are not sure how to broach the subject or how it will impact the future of your relationship? Like the lull before a storm, there are some telltale signs betraying deception much before the actual disclosure.

A word of caution though: Don’t go strictly by any one sign. They can effectively be pointers of a cheating partner only if collectively put and backed by non-verbal communication.

Your instinct. Unless you are insanely paranoid or easily suspicious, you must trust your instinct. If you have a gut feeling that something is amiss, it probably is. If you feel that there is someone else your partner’s heart feels loving toward, there probably is. Always trust your sixth sense. It never lies.

Emotional/physical disconnect. Is your partner there and yet not there when he is with you? Does he seem to ignore you when together? Does he reach out for you less in simple gestures of love? Is the communication between the two of you weakening? They all point to his lack of interest in the relationship.

Secret mission. If your partner increasingly excludes you from his plans, is dismissive of his work, evasive about his friends, and carries his cell phone even to the toilet, it means he has something to hide. It could well be a new love interest.

Uncharacteristic reactions. Becoming unduly touchy, snapping without provocation, and being unnecessarily defensive should raise an alarm for you. Moreover, if he stops paying attention to how you look or doesn’t say endearing words the way he used to, it’s time for you to take the bull by the horns.

One lie too many. Have you lately found that too many things your partner says don’t add up? It’s true that one lie leads to another. In order to cover his back, your partner may be indulging in one untruth after another.

Guilty conscience. The guilt of doing something wrong leads him to feel embarrassed each time you do something nice for him. At the same time, he might be showering you with many gifts, something he never did earlier. It’s his way of trying to exorcise his moral and ethical demons.

Cheating on a partner is the worst kind of transgression. If your partner is betraying your trust and love, it may be time to move on. For you.
