8 Most Obvious Signs Of A Cheating Spouse

I want to say we live in a world where people who make a commitment stick to their word, but not all of them do. And it is really sad we need to become well-versed in the signs of a cheating spouse. When you’re in a relationship with someone, you assume they’re following the same rules as you, including being faithful.

Once, when I was traveling, the guy I was dating cheated on me. I already knew he had before he even confessed to me. I don’t know if he was bored or emotionally disconnected, but he did what he did. It’s not a nice feeling, knowing that someone was dishonest towards you when you opened yourself up to them.

# You feel it

You weren’t born yesterday. Listen, no matter what anyone tells you, you have intuition. Yes, you should see the signs and gather evidence. But at the end of the day, you know when someone is acting shady towards you. If your gut is telling you they’re cheating on you, then you should listen to it. It doesn’t mean they’re cheating, but it means something isn’t right.

# All of a sudden, they have new passwords

Not just on their phone, on all their devices. Strange, no? Why would they suddenly change their passwords? Well, unless they bought new devices recently, there’s no reason why. Listen, they don’t need to tell you their password, but if they never had a password and now suddenly do, that’s not good.

# The sex has changed

Your sex life has changed suddenly. It’s either you’re having more sex or less sex, but whatever is happening, it’s noticeable. It could be less sex because your partner is focused on pleasing someone else, or more sex because they either feel guilty or want to introduce to you new things in the bedroom.

# Sometimes, you can’t reach them

There are specific times of the day where you actually can’t get a hold of them. Whether you phone or text them, they don’t reply for a couple of hours. If someone is cheating on you, they’re going to be less available to answer your texts and calls. Makes sense, right? They’re busy with someone else.

# Their friends act weird

Their friends know they’re cheating on you. How could they hide that from everyone? Someone knows. Have you noticed their friends act differently around you? Maybe they avoid you or are acting unusually kind? They’re only doing this because they know something you don’t.

# The emotional connection fades

You used to tell each other everything, but your partner isn’t sharing much information with you anymore. And it’s usually because they share their feelings and thoughts with someone else. Why would they waste their time repeating these things twice?

# They’re angry at you

They seem to be on edge when they’re around you, almost annoyed at your very presence. When someone is cheating, they put the blame on you. It’s one of the ways they can rationalize their actions. They make you feel like you’re the one to blame, but you haven’t done anything wrong.

# They’ve improved their appearance

All of a sudden, they’re out shopping and getting their hair done. You know, things they never did before. Of course, it could be a new-year-new-me mantra they’re following, or it could be because they want to please someone else. If they’re used to wearing rags and now sport Gucci watches and bags, something is up.
