Is she really faithful to me? Don’t you sometimes get that strange feeling when your partner keeps looking at her cell phone and you don’t know who she’s texting back and forth with? Don’t worry, we don’t want to give you any unfounded suspicions. After all, jealousy is just as toxic to a relationship as infidelity. Still, you should stay alert so you don’t fall behind.

If your beloved suddenly has a lot of new friends, changes her lifestyle or hair color, it’s obvious that something has changed with her. But even small things can indicate that something is wrong or she is hiding something from you.

How can you tell that your partner is cheating?

You cannot and should not immediately conclude that your partner is deceiving you from a new hairstyle or a striking lipstick. You need clearer indications for that. However, it’s not impossible to spot a cheater by simple means. “If you know your partner well and are basically attentive, you can tell if she’s cheating.

Where does cheating start?

Infidelity is a matter of definition. It depends on how you define a breach of faithfulness in your partnership. There are couples who already see it as cheating if the partner flirts with someone else. Others only judge a kiss or sex as a breach of fidelity. And then there are couples for whom infidelity only begins when feelings are involved.

These 11 signs indicate a woman is cheating

“There are a few classics that are good indicators of a possible affair,” Mittermaier says. “The more signs that appear at the same time, the higher the probability that the partner is not averse to an affair,” says the relationship counselor. Pay close attention to the following clues, but please don’t rush to check.

1. signs that a woman is cheating: she looks at her cell phone more often or is always on the computer

Bing. She must have turned off the sound for incoming messages long ago. That’s why she reflexively looks at her smartphone every 2 minutes. When you ask her who is writing, she answers (too quickly) with “Oh, nobody” or the name of her best friend. When you try to look at the display, she pulls the device away and laughs. Other clues: The phone is always with the display down — and guaranteed not within your reach.

2. she changes her passwords or sets up Touch ID.

You know the pin code of your loved one’s smartphone? Why don’t you test it again? We’re not talking about you spying on her. However, if she’s changed the code, that’s a clear sign that she’s afraid you might see something you shouldn’t. Other clues: The browsing history on her computer is always deleted.

3. she smells unusual when she comes home.

If she suddenly smells like a snack bar, even though she doesn’t like fries and burgers, that doesn’t have to be a warning signal. She may have picked up the smell in the cafeteria or at lunch with her colleagues. Motor oil, smoke, alcohol or men’s perfume, on the other hand, speak a different language. Other clues: She is wearing a scent that you don’t recognize from her and takes a shower as soon as she gets home.

4. she dresses new and puts on more makeup.

The lingerie drawer is full of new lace panties? At the latest, if you haven’t seen any of them yourself yet, this should make you wonder. But you don’t have to rummage through her closet first. The clues can be much more subtle. For example, is she wearing high heels more often again and paying meticulous attention to her makeup lately? Other clues: She goes shopping more often, spends hours in the bathroom, and takes lots of selfies.

5. she is sometimes unavailable for hours.

Actually, all she wanted to do after work was quickly pick up something from a friend or do some overtime. No problem. But if you can’t reach her by phone for hours on end, something is wrong. Further indications: She often drives through dead spots and the battery of her smartphone is weaker than before.

6. she is in a good mood and her eyes are shining.

You both climbed from cloud 7 to a more relaxed floor months or years ago. So how come she’s suddenly acting like a teenager in love? She warbles along to pop music, grins into her smartphone or bubbles over with good humor — for no apparent reason. Even when you tell her about problems at work, she smiles. Other clues: She tells you inside jokes that you don’t get or suddenly sends you ridiculous smileys.

7. she makes more and more often girls’ nights out.

Mondays to the movies, Wednesdays to dinner, and Saturdays to a party. Lately, she’s supposedly out with her girls all the time. More and more ladies are joining in that you’ve never heard of before. Guys are not welcome. Other clues: She warns you not to wait for her and encourages you to have more guys’ nights.

8. she suddenly lets you get away with more

You forget to spend time with your buddies at the bar or look up another woman. In the past, your sweetheart would have jumped in the triangle and wouldn’t have talked to you for 3 days. Today she reacts calmly to such faux pas or doesn’t even register them. Further indications: She suggests you to get in touch with your sandbox friend again or motivates you to go to soccer more often again.

9. she goes to the gym more often (with make-up)

Sports every night? That wasn’t usually her thing. Either she’s really on a fitness kick or she’s using the gym or running group as an alibi to secretly date elsewhere. Other clues: She showers before going to the gym and the clothes in her bag are still dry after the training session.

10. she fights more often over trifles

It seems that she surfs on the red wave for half a month: she suddenly quarrels over every trifle and plows at you from the side. She also openly criticizes your lifestyle and compares you to other people more often. That wasn’t the case before! Other clues: Having dinner together is less important to her, she asks for your opinion less often, and she doesn’t wash your underpants anymore.

11. she has no desire for sex and closeness

She doesn’t want to have sex? That alone — as you know — is not sufficient proof that she goes elsewhere for sex. It’s only when she stops allowing closeness, too, that you should be alarmed. That is, if she refuses kisses, hugs and caresses, something is wrong. Other clues: she hides from you when undressing and turns in bed with her face to the wall.

How to behave when the woman cheats?

You have caught your partner in several signs? Then you should act. “An adult way to deal with a suspicion is definitely to speak up. Keeping it quiet stirs up doubt and resentment and doesn’t move the couple forward. Ideally, you’ll have an honest interest in finding out what the woman’s motivation is and what she’s really about. Rather than ‘interrogating’ her (How? When? How often? For how long? With whom?), it makes more sense to really listen to her (Why? What did you feel? What are you missing?).” You don’t have to worry that your sweetheart will think you’re extremely jealous. She could only accuse you of that if you go looking for clues behind her back. For example, if you hire a detective or snoop through her cell phone. “That’s a no-go because even in a relationship we have the right to privacy. Even under these circumstances. Going through the cell phone drives the couple further apart. Because here follows a breach of trust upon a breach of trust. If the relationship is really important to you, suppress the impulse to snoop on her and talk to her openly about it”
