Do you have a sinking feeling that your spouse might be cheating on you but you just aren’t sure? There are many signs of a cheating spouse and if you get to really know them and watch for them you’ll be able to catch them in the affair. Here 1-3 of the top 10 red flags of a cheater.

#1 Any friendships you feel funny about
When you voice your concern about a friendship that just seems to close, you are probably not convinced if your spouse tries to assure you by saying, “I’m telling you, we’re just friends.” Seems to you that they are trying to deny something instead of affirming you. Just know that your gut may be right on because many people who think of themselves as just friends are becoming lovers. Really trust your gut on this one, if you have a horrible sinking feeling about a relationship, dig until you find the truth your looking for.
Trust your gut. Even if this is a long time friend who teaches a religion class, donates blood, visits the folks at the assisted living center, and sits in the same church pew with you and your husband week after week. Any close friendship can turn into an affair and our guts usually tell us when something is “off” even if for the past 20 years things between the two of them have always been platonic.

#2 New hobbies and/or interests
A sudden or new activity that has nothing to do with you. This activity is most likely something that takes them away from home for hours at a time. They seem very involved with this activity almost to an obsession. If you’re worried this hobby of theirs may be bogus then I would suggest trying to follow them. You could borrow some else’s car they wouldn’t recognize and find out where they really are going.
This could be a place where they will try to hide some of the missing money from your household. They could say their hobby takes money like being on some kind of league that they have to pay weekly for like bowling or pool.

#3 Gifts from another person
They may come home with new books, new homemade music CD’s, little stuff they can explain as something they pick up for themselves but have never done so before. Maybe even new jewelry, key chains, money clips, etc. This topic is covered a lot of those Other Woman Boards. They like to discuss what to buy their Married Men so that the wife doesn’t suspect anything.
