You two are the perfect couple. You know what they like to eat, their favorite color, you can even help them pick out clothing they like. And life continues on the happy track with no concerns, cares or fears. And then one day, something inside you is screaming out. Why suddenly do you have a funny feeling about your significant other? Something has changed, you cannot pin-point it, but you suspect something different about your partner. And when we are faced with the unknown, we expect the worst.

Maybe it isn't anything. Or maybe your perfect partner is leading a double life.

We stress over the unknown and choose to get to the bottom of things as quickly as possible. To get to the bottom, you have to know what signs and sometimes subtle actions to look for in a cheating partner.

Maybe it isn't anything. Read on...

Someone that has moved their focus elsewhere - such as a new flame in their lives - will show signs of distraction. They are more likely to daydream as they think about the next time they will get together. Sometimes stresses at work can put a person in a less-focused frame of mind, and hopefully you are the know about any issues they are having. However, if they are not pouring out to you their daily stresses, as many of us do, it could be a secret they keep. The distraction can also lead to less participation in activities around the house - all they want to do is be with this other person - the last thing on their minds is the household and unfortunately, you.


Then you get the opposite of this. You partner seems on edge, even overly alert. This comes about due to their guilt-ridden side. They may offer to help with laundry - hmm, wonder why - or run "errands" for you. They watch for the mail, almost rushing to the box to get it first. Now, anyone that rushes to get the phone bill or credit card bill is either 1) whacked, or more likely, 2) trying to hide something. This heighten sense of awareness is an indicator that they are trying to stay a step ahead of you. My, my are they ever clever - and somehow figure you never will notice!


Couples are pretty much in tune when it comes to their sex lives. You know when the last time was, or how long it has been, even where it was. So when you start to see changes in their attitude toward your sex life, you better be on top of it right away (figuratively speaking). Think about it, if they are getting their sexual desires fulfilled elsewhere, they may less likely want to have sex at home. If you get the "I'm too tired" line often, and you cannot see any reasons they possibly could be tired, then they are probably telling the truth - they are getting sexually worn out with their new passion. Lack of sex is not always the indicator however. If they start asking about unusual (to your relationship) sexual activity, this could be a sign that whatever this new lover has offered, they want the same from you. Yuck! You know what they say about "seconds".

These are just a few of the tell-tale signs that you may be living with a cheating partner. Finally you are able to satisfy that "unknown" factor in your relationship and can move ahead accordingly. If you still are faced with the unknown as the signs above are not apparent, there are a number of other signs to watch for.
