The Top 10 Signs Your Wife is Cheating on You

Category: Relationships, Relating, Couples (BB436)

Originally Submitted on 7/25/2004.


1. Changes in her appearance.

She's losing weight and sprucing up her appearance. New hairstyle, nails, new clothes. Changes in her style of dress. She's dressing to please another man, or he's buying her new things. Also new lingerie you don't get to see, but it's in the drawer or laundry hamper.

2. Bigger phone bills (cell and landline), odd phone calls.

The phone rings at odd times. When you answer, they hang up.

3. She's become distant, talking less, and not interested in things like she was before.

She's lax about your comings and goings. She doesn't care what you're up to any more. You have fewer arguments. In this case, less "nagging" is not a good sign. Now she sticks the remote in your hand and tells you to go for it (and then leaves).

4. She suddenly has to work late and weekends all the time.


5. She's weakened relations with her parents and friends.

She spends less time with them, less frequently, and says less to them.

6. Flowers arrive at the house.

She says they're from her boss, a colleague, her parents, or a friend.

7. Change in your sex life.

More interest in variety in sex and trying new things (she's learning new things from the new guy) or she's no longer interested in sex with you.

8. Changes in the children's behavior.

Children are intuitive. They don't miss what's going on. They're more clingy or more argumentative, not sleeping or eating well, or complaining of things like stomach aches.

9. Unaccountable charges on your credit cards. Going over budget.

People having an affair spend money. They buy gifts for their lover, go to motels, rent cars, travel, and buy new enhancements for themselves (new wardrobe, beauty enhancements).

10. Disappearing to spend time on the Internet.

A way to meet new people, or to communicate by email or IM.
