Signs Of Extramarital Affairs

Most affairs begin when a spouse starts to have a connection with someone else. Infidelity causes emotional and financial difficulties; this is especially so when a spouse showers the third party with lavish gifts. If you are suspicious that your spouse has an extra marital affair, you may be wondering what the signs of infidelity are. Discussed below are things you need to look out for if you suspect your spouse is having an affair.

Change in Behavior

If you notice that there are certain changes in your spouse’s behavior, he or she may be having an affair. If there is a change in attitude like getting angry quite often or not showing interest in family matter, then it could be a sign that your spouse has fallen into an affair.

Suspicious Phone and Internet Tactics

Most spouses are able to tell that something is not right by listening to their partner’s phone conversations. If he or she disconnects the phone once you walk into the room or closes the computer once you walk in, your spouse may be having an affair, which opens up the family law can of worms.

Your Spouse is Unusually Busy

Have you noticed that your spouse has been going for trips that were not planned or you were not informed of earlier, then possibly, he or she may be having an affair. Cheating spouses often look for reasons to be away from home so that they could spend more time with their partners. If you notice that he or she has started coming home later than usual, it warrants an investigation.

Unnecessary Explanations

Spouses who are having an affair often get into the habit of giving unnecessary explanations of every event that happened during the day.  They are usually guilty and looking for ways to cover up their immoral behavior.

Change of Wardrobe

In order to please the other person, most cheating spouses start to pay close attention to their appearance. They could start working out, losing weight and buying new clothes to appear appealing to the other person.

Inappropriately Defensive

Cheating spouses get overly defensive when asked simple questions like what they were doing at a certain time. If you find that your husband or wife has been getting angry or defensive when you ask him some questions, it could be a sign that your spouse is involved in an affair.

Unaccounted for Time

If you find that your spouse cannot account for time when he was away or you are not fully convinced by their explanation, it could be a sign of infidelity.

However, noticing these signs does not necessarily imply that your spouse could be cheating on you. Other factors in life could cause your spouse to behave in a similar way. If you find out that your spouse has cheated on you and you want to end the marriage, ensure you contact a divorce lawyer. A divorce attorney has the relevant expertise to represent and guide you through the divorce process.
