In a survey of 1,535 adults, a full 91 percent considered infidelity to be morally wrong—that’s a higher percentage than things like polygamy, human cloning and suicide, but people still cheat! Many of the people who cheat are women. They can cover up an adulterous affair and play the sport like anyone else. "A study done on newlywed couples found that 20 percent of married women are unfaithful. And keep in mind, these are newlyweds," Askmen.com reported. Yes, people change and people drift apart. This could be the reason that people cheat or it is just a lame excuse. In the end, how could they break your trust, and ruin your marriage? Where did you miss the clues? If you look back on the relationship, the signs were probably there, but they may have been subtle. Don’t be fooled and beat her at the same game by being cognizant of the warnings. Here are 6 signs that she is going to cheat on you.

She Doesn't Have Time For You

Your wife might refuse to spend as much time with you and makes excuses for not doing so. She could be aloof with you and gloss over your growing anxieties and gets upset when questions asked. She might be overly stressed about something unrelated to your relationship as well, but this is unlikely. Psychologist Sarah Schewitz said the best way to handle this scenario is to "Say something like ‘Hey babe, I’ve noticed you seem a little distant lately. I miss feeling close to you. Is there something you want to talk about or something I could do to bring us closer together again?’” Doing this in a non-combative way is important. If she lashes out, you could have a problem.

She Reduces Public Appearances

Maybe you and your wife went on dates weekly, but all of a sudden she's lost interested in being with you in public. Whether it's business events or other outings - she will not bring you along and makes excuses as well to defend herself. This could be a sign that she doesn't want you to bump into anyone that she's seeing. If she doesn’t want to spend as much time in public with you, it can be a red flag! She may know the other man likes to do the same activities that you do and she's trying to keep you from them. If you’re concerned with how much she's not wanting to go out in public with you, try explaining it’s making you uncomfortable in the relationship.

She Lies

Lies come in all forms so stay on guard and protect your marriage by being honest with yourself and your spouse. "By making up something or stretching the truth, liars can manipulate how their listeners will react, especially if they know their audience well," Family Share reported. Controlling people use lies, manipulation, guilt or they may play on the insecurities of another person. Their ploy might catch you off guard. We all lie, but if their story doesn't line up and they dodge you all the time, it could be something going on that is not healthy. Also, if she's really good, she can make things sound like a fact by mixing lies and truths collectively to make you believe that they are legit. Don't be ashamed if you fall for this one!

She's Always Working Late

We spend a ton of time at work and this is a common way people meet and could hook up as well. "The frequency with which we see them and the easy proximity make it very easy to develop feelings for someone you work with," Dr. Nikki Martinez, Psy.D., shared with askmen.com. Vault.com’s annual office romance survey found that 2 percent had an ongoing casual relationship; 36 percent said they had "A random office hookup; 29 percent had been in a serious, long-term relationship; and 16 percent had met their spouse or partner at work." If your wife is spending more time at work lately and there are no big projects that need her there, it could be a sign of an affair or a heavy workload.

She's Secretive With Her Phone

When people cheat they will hide their phones to suppress the view of text messages and phone calls. “Women may hide text messages, email exchanges, and phone calls with a ‘good friend,’” dating expert Laurel House said. “He could start off as just a friend, but it could also be progressing into more.” There will also be a change in her behavior and it will seem that she is sneaking around more to hide that she's on the phone doing something shady. She also will become more protective of her phone and her privacy on it. If she’s getting Facebook friend requests, and the like from people you are unsure of, it could mean she's cheating on you or looking to have an affair.

Follow the Money

A way to tell if someone is cheating is by their spending habits. You can gloss over a $100 purchase occasionally. But if you are seeing a pattern, there could be something amiss. “People tend not to be very creative and smart when it comes to financing their affair,” said Marie Ebersacher, who is a CBIZ forensic manager. “They think they are doing a good job, but if you pay close attention they leave financial clues.” Look at the paper trail to observe if there are any red flags. If they refuse to talk and explain their actions, it's suspicious. You should then notify the banks and credit card companies that you need to close accounts if you surmise foul play here.
