How to Recognize Signs and Symptoms of a Cheating Husband or Wife
A married couple takes vows to remain together for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death parts them. Many times, however, one spouse decides that they cannot wait until death, and they let boredom part their holy union.
Many times, the spouse that is cheated on looks back and realizes in retrospect that there were many signs along the way that should have clued them into the fact that their spouse was cheating.
There are signs that you can look for if you suspect your spouse might be cheating.

Check bank and credit card statements. If you notice charges for restaurants that look like they are for more than one meal, casually ask your partner who they treated to lunch on that particular day. If you notice purchases that you weren't told about --especially from jewelry, flower, or lingerie shops-- start paying closer attention to other behaviors. A cheating spouse will usually try to woo the other person by buying them gifts and taking them out to lunch or dinner.

Take note of their cell phone usage. If your spouse used to leave their cell phone in one certain place, and they are suddenly keeping it with them all day and night, chances are they are in contact with someone they don't want you to know about. If you are on the cell phone account, log into your cell phone account online, to check the phone calls and text messages. An unusual number of calls or texts to one particular number could spell trouble.

Pay attention in the bedroom. A lot of people assume that a cheating spouse will avoid sexual contact with their spouse. This is not always the case. Many times, a cheating spouse will go in the opposite direction, having sex with their spouse more often. This could be because they are trying to avoid suspicion, or they might be thinking about trysts with their lovers, and will then act on this with their spouse.
Look for increase in sexual activity, with a decrease in other interaction. This is particularly suspicious if your spouse starts trying new techniques in bed.

Watch for a change in their appearance. A cheating spouse will start to pay more attention to their appearance, for no apparent reason. This is for both genders. A woman may start dressing more provocatively, and a man might start to dress younger. Both sexes will become more attentive to their weight, hair, and appearance. If it's apparent that they are not doing it for you (meaning if they don't ask you for your opinion, or ask if you like it), chances are your spouse is cheating.
