If you are feeling that something is wrong, then there is a good chance that you are right. It is important to learn the signs and if your suspicions are right, you need to learn strategies and methods for dealing with the emotional pain.

You have to ask yourself the question; do you want to save the relationship and get your spouse, boyfriend or girlfriend back or do you want to let it go? This will require some soul searching, but it will be important to act quickly before it is too late. Finding out in the early stages of cheating give you a better chance of mending the relationship than if you wait until the distance between you widens to the stage where divorce becomes inevitable. All relationships are salvagable, if you want it bad enough.

Here are some warning signs that your significant other is cheating: ~ The cheating spouse tends to be more attentive to the other spouse at the beginning of an affair, due to the guilt of cheating.

~ In order to justify the affair a cheating spouse will often find fault with the other spouse.

~ Cheating spouses lose interest in the activities at home. They may even lose interest in you and the children. The house may begin to show signs of disrepair, including dirty dishes, laundry, lawn care and other simple house repairs that used to get fixed.

~ You simply "feel" like something is wrong. This usually is a good sign that something "is" wrong and you should check it out. ~ Your sex life changes. You may have more or less sex then usual and the cheater will make unusual sexual requests. ~ There is an obvious change in attitude towards everyone in the house, expecially the other spouse. Everything becomes your fault and the cheater has a more angry demeanour. ~ Finances are suspicious. You find unusual expenses, receipts, credit card bills or unusual amounts of cash in the wallet.

~ Grooming habits change. Cheaters tend to pay more attention to their personal appearance...like they are trying to impress someone. They may dress differently, groom their hair differently, switch colognes or perfume, etc... ~ Often there is evidence left behind. Look for lipstick on the collar, odors of cologne/perfume, underwear stains. Also check wallets or glove compartments for receipts, paper with phone numbers, addresses, condoms, etc.

~ You may find some red flags by monitoring your spouse for a couple of weeks. Keep track of the mileage in the car, the time they leave and come home from work. This should help establish a pattern. If your spouse claims to be working overtime, check the paystub for extra income. ~ Listen carefully to home phone calls. Your spouse might begin to whisper, leave the room or give quick answers and immediately hang when you come in the room.

~ Check your spouses cell phone for suspicious and unrecognizable phone numbers. Check for frequency and length of the call. Also check the cell phone bill and look for the first number called when your spouse leaves for work and the last number called before your spouse returns home.

~ When a female has an affair they tend to have a "glow" about them. They are also more discreet in their affair and selection of lovers.
