Being cheated on?

Lipstick on his collar? Condoms in her purse? These may all be telltale signs that your partner is cheating on you. But sometimes the signs are far less obvious. Here's what to look out for.

Take action:


He/she: avoids emotional intimacy and cosy chats; is less interested in sex than before (or, if over-stimulated by the affair, more interested than usual); is less attentive to your moods – even to what you're saying; is more concerned by his/her appearance, even when there's no occasion you know of that requires such extra grooming; may behave very differently, perhaps seeming preoccupied with thoughts of something else; is more outgoing and jolly than usual; becomes hypersensitive, much more so than usually, to any criticism from you.
