It is a crushing blow to any woman when she finds out that her husband is being unfaithful. This is more than likely going to be an unexpected shock. Most women believe that when they get married they are marrying a man that they know and can trust for the rest of their lives, it can be unbearable to think that your husband has had a close relationship with another woman.

There can be many signs that your husband is committing adultery. Although some are very obvious, others are more subtle. It’s important for a woman who suspects that there may be a third party involved in her relationship to recognize the signs of adultery and then take whatever measures she feels are necessary to either rebuild the broken trust or end the marriage.

Below I have listed five signs that you should look out for, it is important to you to remember they should take note of any change in your husband’s behaviour, which may mean that he is cheating on you.

The first sign is fairly obvious, and most woman will notice it straight away. This is if your husband has stopped wearing his wedding ring! When you questioned him about this he may say that he has forgotten to put it on, or that he has misplaced it. This is often quite telling especially if he comes home at night without it.

One sign that should be obvious for any woman is a major change in your husband’s works schedule. If he is always worked a normal nine to five job, and he has recently needed to work late on a regular basis, this is not a good sign. He may also be attending conferences out of town more often than usual. Make sure you keep a close eye on his phone records particularly if he has a work mobile and make note of any unusual numbers.

Hiding a credit card or checking account is another clue that an affair may be taking place. Many couples combine their financial resources and have joint accounts. If you notice an unfamiliar credit card in your husband’s wallet, this is cause for suspicion. Most men who have always been forthcoming about money, and then suddenly want their own account or card, may be keeping secrets.

Does your husband normally take the family car to work? If he does this in normally cling that on a regular occasion? I know I don’t. If your husband is having an affair there’s a good chance that he will take his new mistress in the family car at some point. If you notice him cleaning the car more often you should be suspicious that he is trying to clean up any evidence he may have left behind, such as lipstick or make up belonging to his new lady. He may also take out all the children’s toys and anything belonging to you so that his new mistress does not know that he has a family.

The fifth sign and often the most telling one is if your husband has become less talkative than normal, and often seems lost in his own thoughts. There is always a strong sense of guilt associated with infidelity. Even if you ask them what he’s thinking about, he will probably tell you it’s nothing important.

It is very difficult to come to terms with the fact that your husband is cheating on you. However, no matter how difficult it may be it is very important that you gather enough evidence to confirm any suspicions you may have. When you have sufficient information to prove his guilt you’ll be able to decide on what steps to take next.
