People are creatures of habit.
We need New Year's resolutions to start working out. We may decide to grow a mustache before our wedding or for Prostate Cancer awareness month, but will usually revert right back to our old look immediately after.
With the pressures of our day-to-day lives, we need strong motivators to change our habits or appearance, and we usually don't change more than one thing at a time... That is unless we are trying to impress a new love interest.
When cheaters have a new fling, they suddenly become hyper sensitive to their physical appearance, and find motivation to lose weight, or get a new fashionable look.
Cheaters are often so excited by their new affair that they not only change hairdos and wardrobe. They can also take on new hobbies (usually something that the new love
finds interesting) and get interested in brand new ideas that they never before gave a second thought. This is typically something that a new love
brought up, or an attempt to impress him or her.
Here are some of the changes to look out for. Your honey may be cheating on you if he or she:
1. Buys new clothes and starts dressing sexier than in the past (i.e.: shows more cleavage).
2. You catch him or her telling little lies
3. Gets a new haircut or changes facial hair (in men) - possibly as a request from a new love
4. Whitens teeth
5. Goes tanning
6. Gets Lasik eye surgery
7. Joins a gym and begins working out
8. Starts to diet
9. Frequently gets impatient with you, or is critical of you or the kids
10. Stops being interested in sex, and when you do get intimate, seems to know new techniques
11. Becomes distant and disinterested in hanging out with you and the family
12. Has new interests and tastes in TV shows and books
13. Starts working longer hours, including weekends and evenings
14. Hangs out with new friends that you never met
15. Picks up a new hobby and starts to attend classes (they could be attending together)
Watch out for the above changes, especially if you spot more than a few of them happening all at once. These could indicate that your partner wants to reinvent him or herself to be more appealing to the new lover.
Compared to the excitement of the new illicit affair, the cheater's old family life begins to seem boring and uninteresting in comparison. A wave of criticism and disinterest in you and your kids is likely to accompany the above changes in cheater's behavior and appearance.
These changes are your first clue that something is going on. Whether you realize it or not, you know your partners habits quite well, so are in a perfect position to spot any changes. These changes should cue you to start looking for the evidence of the affair that you can later present to your unfaithful partner in order to get him or her to admit to infidelity and begin to work past it.
