This one is harder to spot, but it bears mention because it's usually a sign of problems that lead to an affair, rather than the actual affair.

If you see this, talk to him, before he gets tangled up in an affair that could destroy your marriage. Yes No I need help 29 His tastes in music change. Not that many wives notice this one, because many times their husbands can have some strange tastes in music.
However, if your classic rock loving husband starts listening to Tecno, there's a reason. Sometimes it is just be because he likes it, but more often, it's because the woman he's cheating on you with likes that style of music. He either wants to make her happy, or is pleasantly reminded of her while jamming out to the latest step.
Yes No I need help 30 He starts visiting art exhibits or enjoying trips to museums. This one might seem a little funny at first, until you learn about the young art student your husband has taken an interest in, or the history major who has enchanted him with welcoming smiles and tales of ancient Rome. If he starts finding interest in things he previously had no interest in, it's a sure sign that another woman has his interest. Take note, and steer him away from infidelity. Yes No I need help 31 He starts attending office parties and social events he used to avoid.
Everyone knows the jokes about office parties, and let's be honest, they're usually pretty true. So, when your husband suddenly starts attending them, it probably has something to do with the new girl in the office. If you aren't invited, it almost certainly has something to do with her. This is a sure sign of trouble in your relationship. Yes No I need help 32 The level of attention he gives you drastically changes. If your normally passionless man suddenly becomes a charming powerhouse of passion, enjoy it, but pay very close attention to him.

It's more often reserved for those who have been married a few years. In these instances, a cheating husband might discuss a desire to visit France, for example. This naturally leads to French lessons, which his wife mistakes as being an indication of a planned trip to another country. She never sees the affair his 'language' lessons are hiding. While new languages are great, be careful your husband isn't more than just new words in his mouth.
My husband had an ex 8 months ago but the girl still sends him messages and calls him.
So is there a possibility that they still meet and are dating?? There are several factors at play here that can affect this answer. For one thing, he might still have feelings for her, such as feeling sorry for her but not acting on them. The second possibility is that they do meet, but it is not because he has romantic intentions towards her. The fourth possibility is that they are seeing each other but he does not have the heart to tell you.
Yes No I need help As honesty is the best policy in a love relationship your best approach here is to just simply ask him if he is committed to a future with you and if so, will she be part of it? If you are suspicious now, it is the time to draw boundaries and state clearly what it is about his ex contacting him that bothers you. If he does not want to allay your fears or refuses to have the conversation or accuses you of not trusting him then it might be time to leave the relationship.
On the other hand, if he tells you it is nothing you might prefer to take him at his word rather than create an atmosphere of mistrust.

I also got hold of his cellphone records. During the 8 years, he sent texts and called her every day. Last Valentines Day I asked him to make up to me by buying me a card. He ignored me almost completely. Again on our wedding anniversary, I asked him to do something special for us, but again he just kind of not interested in my request.
This got me very upset and we ended fighting on our anniversary. I suggested we go to see a marriage counselor but he refused to say that we just move forward.

He runs hotels but doesn't stay on his own, he started going to a different one something tells me in my gut that something wasn't right, so I checked the bank statement and there it was every month he would go, definitely he denied it.
I know it's true, we don't talk or communicate and I can't trust him Was this helpful? Yes No I need help He is getting a hotel room in a separate place from the ones he manages so there is something definitely going on.

To be honest and faithful to me. But instead, he gets angry and tells me there is no trust in our marriage Was this helpful? Yes No I need help If he is going to see his family, especially after such a long absence of not seeing them, you should trust that he will remain faithful.

If you are so suspicious maybe you should surprise him while he is there or arrange a week or two to visit also with him.

When other women call my phone, causing me to ask him how did they get my phone number after changing it 4 times? Calling the phone company, changing numbers. Not sure Was this helpful? Yes No I need help Do they ask for your boyfriend directly? Otherwise, it is because you keep getting recycled phone numbers and women are calling someone else and getting you instead. Have you considered that it may be telemarketers or bill collectors? I highly doubt your boyfriend would be passing out your phone number after you have changed your number so many times. Yes No I need help Hubby doesn't call me while being at his job or check on me.
He is always playing a Facebook online games and not enough time with me? What should I do?
I do have the gut feeling that he has already cheated on me or getting ready to cheat. Nothing because he is always on the defensive side. He can't talk to me like adults should. I guess not enough attention Was this helpful? Yes No I need help Just because you feel that you are not getting enough attention from him does not mean that he is cheating. It sounds more like he is busy and possibly stressed at work and home and his Facebook games are his escape from reality. Yes No I need help If you feel that you are not getting enough attention from him, ask him what has happened to the guy you fell in love with and married.
He may just be in a rut and too comfortable to try to appease you anymore. He also could be completely oblivious to the fact that you require more attention. Yes No I need help Schedule some date nights for the next few months and see if he shows an interest in at least spending some time with you. Let him know that these evenings out will help you feel more appreciated by him. This does not mean that you have to spend money. Even a date night walking around the neighborhood or watching the sunset while sitting in the car listening to music can be a good way to get more connection in a relationship.
Yes No I need help He is trying to make up for his cheating past. We are trying to build trust. Unfortunately, when he became a big shot he threw me to the curb. I don't know why I didn't file for a divorce after one year of his nonsense? Should I continue to give therapy a shot. All I want is for him to be totally honest so that we can move on.
I have incurable cancer. Okay, first you have cancer and should be focusing on that and not the relationship. At least he is trying now to mend fences but unless he changes his ways, the marriage is over. If you want him to be totally honest then the next therapy session, demand the truth. Do not back down until he gives it to you but honestly, he may not have a reason that you are satisfied with for why he cheated. Yes No I need help He is not the first man to do what he did to you. Some people change when they become successful.
It is almost like their thirst for accomplishment becomes all consuming and they lose sight of what really is important in their life. Yes No I need help Why does my partner always come home late, ignores me and then goes to sleep? My partner goes to work at 5 in morning finishes at 2 PM but he comes home at 6.
Communicating telling him to help me or why are you home late every day. Him cheating Was this helpful? Yes No I need help You need to find out what he is doing with those 4 extra hours after work. Running errands is one thing but being gone every day for that amount of time suggests that something is going on.
Yes No I need help We all need personal time to ourselves but his personal time is distancing the family from him. For the sake of your children, find out what is really going on. I found a paper with lipstick mark in my husband car what could it mean?. Tried to talk to him but he is not responsive, he thinks that I am unnecessarily worried about useless stuff. I talk really less and when it comes to our relationship he just doesn't want to discuss anything because he thinks he is faithful and that's it.
And on top of that, he is a very busy person with his work. Yes No I need help If you do not have any other proof of possible cheating, you should not over think what you found. The paper could have come from his job without even him realizing that there was lipstick on it. It could also be from someone that he had in his car for work.
Yes No I need help Look for other signs. You have stated that your relationship is currently distant especially in terms of communication. It is time for you both to hit reset on this marriage. This may mean that you go to counseling for your distrust and withdrawal so that the marriage can survive. He has told you that he is faithful and for right now you need to trust that. Let go of everything holding you back and remind yourselves of why you fell in love with each other in the first place. It is so frustrating Nikki, I caught him on my birthday. He said he has to go to work, turned out went out swimming and I saw a pic of him cuddling with a girl It is like a team building but I don't think cuddling is included.
He is so cold has his phone password. Always bringing his phone chatting, messenger I don't know.. I don't know what to say to him. Yes he is denying. He said there is not. And we are not talking at all. Lack of time and effort. And he is the one who's lacking, not me Was this helpful?
Yes No I need help Insist that you meet with a third party. This could be a pastor or marriage counselor but for the sake of the 4 little kids you have created together, this is the best course of action for a resolution. There may be nothing going on at all, but the communication lines need to be reopened for any hope of a successful marriage.
If he refuses to go to any counseling with you, then present him with child support figures should this end up in divorce? Ask him how he would feel becoming an every other weekend and every Wednesday father instead of being there full time in the home with his children. Sometimes being confronted with reality brings everything to the surface. Yes No I need help Can you help me? As it is clear now my suspicion was correct? A lot of the signs are what he is showing, he brings up his colleague all the time, and antagonizes me with her, and describes her as a queen against me. I have asked him to be honest and he keeps saying she has a boyfriend, what should I do?
Yes No I need help Try to ignore him when he is talking about her. Walk out of the room when he brings her up or hangs up the phone. Either way let it be made very clear that if he really cared about your relationship, he will stop talking about his colleague. Also, having a boyfriend makes it far more dangerous as that means that she has something to lose unless she stays silent. Tell him that is not a valid excuse. There probably is not anything going on between the two. Instead, she may be his "work wife" which means that he is close to her but only in a friendly professional manner.
People will look for someone at work that they can feel emotionally safe within a stressful situation. Still, explain to him that if he wants to be in a strong relationship with you, he needs to stop bringing up this colleague because you feel like there are three people in the relationship.
My husband has issues, he is insecure and has trust issues. He expects me to stay on the phone with him from the time I leave the house until I get to work. He blows up my phone during the day when he isn't working. He doesn't want me doing my church duties and expects me to spend every waking moment with him. I have expressed things to him that he does, that bothers me and it seems as if things are just getting worse. I told him I need some space and he gets mad and says if I need space I need to get out of the marriage.
I am going to a conference and was supposed to be sharing a room with another female and he tells me at the last minute he is going to the conference with me to "volunteer", so I had to cancel my hotel arrangements and get new ones at the last minute. He can't afford to take two days off of work but is going to anyways and is almost two months behind on his truck payment. He isn't helping me with household bills and isn't able to at the moment. I am doing everything in my power to make the relationship work but it has gotten to the point where I do not care anymore, he has me stressed out, and he is slowly but surely pushing me away.
Is there any other way to handle this situation? If he isn't going to allow any time for myself, I will eventually end up leaving. He appears to be jealous and trying to hold me back from professional and personal goals I have set for myself. He has it in his mind that I am running after someone, but I am not running after anyone, nor am I cheating, I am the head of household and work full time on top of all the projects I have going on.
He makes my life miserable on the weekends when I am trying to do my church duties to prepare for the Sunday service and won't help me with the kids so I have to get a babysitter. That was not of me, how could it have been? The ability to love like that is superhuman, God-like. And so via the grace of God, I possessed it, too. I did wonder after anger and even wandered around looking for it, but it never did show up to link arms with me in force. That it was to be my new home. Nothing has ever broken my husband quite like breaking me, and it was there in his raggedness, face down in the arena, covered with dust and sweat and blood that my husband stood up, ignored his own gaping wounds and began laboring to heal mine.
Because love still existed between us and reigned supreme over my heart, nothing in me ever considered leaving my husband. I never felt confused, uncertain or hesitant about choosing to work towards repair and recovery with him. The only piece of gear I owned at the beginning of this journey though was love and I would come to need so much more. I needed to source understanding, forgiveness, and new-found trust. And I needed a guide; for the road back from infidelity and forward to saving a marriage cannot be traveled alone. He brought with us zero blame for anyone but himself and complete ownership of his transgression; an act I eventually came to understand well enough but will never condone.
He brought genuine apology and unfeigned remorse.
I know you want to be a happy wife. Yes No I need help 3 He stops buying you flowers or doing other special things for you. If your husband stops spending time with friends and family, especially in group settings, it's a sure sign that something's wrong. Threads collapsed expanded unthreaded. Oxygen and the capability to trust simultaneously taking leave of my body. It is almost like their thirst for accomplishment becomes all consuming and they lose sight of what really is important in their life. Him cheating Was this helpful?
He brought unceasing readiness to listen to me work through every grueling, exhausting emotion under the sun several times over. He brought everything we would both come to need on this trek before I even knew we needed it. I stayed with my husband. And together we started a new one. The very opposite is true, in fact.
Recovering from adultery and staying with the man who committed it has been the most formidable endeavor of my life. The affair was the thing that felt like it would actually kill me, and yet it did not. Whether you choose to stay or go, I want you to know there is only fierce strength in your own response to infidelity and the breaking of the vows of your marriage.
