How to Tell if a Guy Is Cheating
Mr.Dag isn't the only man to stray away when he already has a fabulous woman by his side. Do the headlines have you spooked?
Here are the surprising signs a dude is being unfaithful.
He's super protective of his gadgets.
The main way that trysts are discovered is through the discovery of incriminating emails, IM chats, cell phone texts, or bills. He often likes to hold his mobile wherever he goes in the house, such as the bathroom, toilet, or reads in the middle of the night while you are sleeping. So, if he's being unfaithful, he may guard his gadgets or act defensively when you innocently touch his phone or computer. It should be a giant red flag if he readily gave you passwords in the past, and now he's more evasive.
He steps up the grooming.
This is so obvious, but it's a sign many women miss noticing. If your partner starts grooming more without your request, that could be an indication that he's becoming intimate with someone else. You can thank modern mass media for this tip-off. Guys today are used to viewing man-capped dudes onscreen, so if he has another chick to impress with his appearance, he may emulate those ultra-trimmed guys. Another clue may be that he's spending more time at the gym.
He smells different.
When he comes home, if he doesn't smell the same as he did in the morning, and it isn't the scent of soap in the gym or at your home, it may be because he's showered at her place. So pay attention, because in this case, that old saying "the nose knows" might very well be true.
Nothing fazes him anymore.
If he was short-tempered before, a combination of added intimacy and attention could be making him way more relaxed, even downright giddy. If your guy is suddenly going around all happy and whistling, then you need to find out why.
He becomes suspicious of you.
If he's usually a mellow type, all of a sudden, he may want to know where you are all the time and with whom. It's the result of him realizing that if he's cheating and it's not that hard, you might also be getting away with it." Also, be cautious of overly detailed responses to even your most innocent "How was work today?" queries. He may be preparing epic answers because he's terrified of getting caught.
One caution you should bear in mind is that if your romantic life hasn't fallen off, that's no guarantee that he's faithful. "It's a grave mistake to think that affairs are necessarily physical. He may just be unhappy in other parts of the relationship. An illicit relationship could even stoke his lust for you.
