When you get married, you promise to love, honor and cherish your spouse until death do you part. Sometimes, though, a spouse doesn't live up to that promise. Cheating, whether a purely physical act or an emotional involvement or both, causes significant problems in a marriage and often results in divorce. Paying attention to the many signs of cheating may help you uncover spousal deception.
Late Arrivals
If your spouse consistently came home at a particular time, and suddenly begins coming home late, you may have a cheating spouse, according to Cheating-Spouse.org. Being called to go on unexpected business trips, when he never went on business trips before, also may indicate your spouse is cheating.
Smell
If your spouse comes home with a the scent of a fragrance you and he do not wear, you may have an unfaithful spouse. Cheating-Spouse.org notes that if your spouse immediately gets into the shower or bath when she gets home, she may be attempting to wash off the smell of her lover off before you notice.
Secret Accounts
A cheating spouse may buy a cell phone without your knowledge, or open a new bank or credit account. The secret phone may be his way of ensuring you do not see the bill with calls to his lover, answer the phone when his lover calls or call him while he is with his lover. He may pay for dinners, outings or gifts for his lover using secret bank or credit accounts. If you discover that your spouse has opened secret accounts, you have a serious marital problem. Do not ignore this sign.
Suspicious Phone Calls
Receiving frequent calls in which the person on the other end hangs up when you answer may be a sign of cheating, Woman's Divorce says. Your spouse's lover may be calling and disconnecting when you, instead of she, answers the phone. Truth About Deception also notes that a cheating spouse may spend more time on the phone or text messaging and keep the phone away from you so you cannot check sent and received calls or incoming and outgoing text messages. Leaving the room when she is on the phone or talking in a hushed voice may also indicate cheating.
No Wedding Ring
If your spouse comes home without his wedding ring, or if he stops wearing his ring, your spouse may be cheating, according to Cheating-Spouse.org. Offering weak excuses for his lack of a ring should further your suspicions. Also, Cheating-Spouse.org notes that signs of cheating may involve missing pieces of jewelry other than just his wedding ring. If he used to wear a necklace or watch that you bought him and he suddenly quits wearing it, you may have an unfaithful spouse.
