THE MOST 6 SIGNS YOU’LL CHEAT ON YOUR PARTNER, YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS!

Most people who are in (having only one sex partner) relationships — and who have a healthy understanding of the rules and responsibilities that come with them — don‘t wake up one morning and think, Today, I‘m going to cheat on my partner. (At least, we hope they don‘t.) But even people in good relationships stray. In fact, anywhere from 25 to 60% of married adults admit to (hater of a person’s religion and a person’s god)ity. And a theme among many of the unfaithful is that they never thought they would be that person.



1. You start to notice all the things you dislike about your partner
Finding faults in your partner is natural (for example, how he always drives two miles below thespeed limit, or how she nags you to do the dishes after work), but focusing on those faults isdestructive to your relationship, Dr. Haltzman says. It puts you at risk for comparing your partnerto other possible mates (as in, “I bet she‘s kinder to her girlfriend“). Plus, choosing to focus onyour partner‘s faults sets you up for a cycle of negativity; the more you look for it, the more you‘llfind, Dr. Haltzman says, so get in the practice of (seeing/hearing/becoming aware of) the goodinstead. A note of caution: Sometimes, the problem isn‘t actually your partner — it‘s you. “Somepeople have a talent for choosing people who won‘t make them happy, which eventually leadsthem to cheat,” Kirshenbaum says. So when you start (related to the mind and brain) nitpickingyour partner, try to take a step back and decide if the relationship is working. That could makethe difference between starting a possibly painful, but important, conversation with your partner— or diving into a full-blown affair you can‘t take back

2. You’re putting in lots of late nights with that kinda-hot coworker
You’ve heard the saying: If you don‘t want to catch fire, stay away from the spark. But sometime sit‘s  impossible to avoid (something that makes you want to do something/the feeling of wanting to do something) — especially since many experts single out the workplace as a common growing area for (cheating on your wife or husband). “Fantasizing is no more cheating than thinking about chocolate cake is going off your diet, but if you‘re thinking about this other person a lot and in detail, and if you‘re in frequent contact, then you‘re sliding down a slippery slope,” Kirshenbaum says. A good way to avoid actually cheating is to be totally honest with yourself about these feelings and come up with a plan for dealing with them. That could mean asking a third person to help with the project you‘re working on together, or avoiding after-work drinks when that tempting co-worker will be there. Be (showing the ability to create interesting new things).

3. You’ve told your partner little white lies — and gotten away with it.
We’re not talking about that time your partner burned the chicken and you said, between dry bites, that it still tasted good. Little lies to protect your partner‘s feelings are a healthy and (usual/ commonly and regular/ healthy); ones that are meant to protect you, hide things, or cover up are not, says Scott Haltzman, PhD, author of Secrets of Happily Married Men. In fact, people who tell little white lies are more likely to lie to/fool their (husband or wife)s, according to a study in Journal of Language and Social (the study of thinking and behavior). And the more you get away with lying, the more it chips away at your relationship — and the higher your risk of cheating.Moral of the story: Avoid things like telling your partner you had a quiet dinner with a single friend when you were really being her wing-woman at a bar, or purposely leaving out the fact that your night out ended at a strip club. It might seem very hard at times, but your relationship will likely benefit from open and honest communication — even if it causes a fight.




4. You’re at an age that ends in nine.
While your partner is busy planning a surprise birthday party for that upcoming age ending in zero, you‘re spending the last year of your current ten years in the bed of another. People are more likely to cheat during the year before an (important thing that is done or completed)birthday, according to a study from Ashley Madison.com. Men and women who registered on the website looking (for) outside-of-marriage affairs were more likely to be 29, 39, 49, and 59 than any other ages. If you‘re feeling unfulfilled at the dawn of a new ten years, you‘re more at risk ofstarting/working at damaging behaviors like cheating on your current partner, according to the(series of events) of The National College/school of Sciences. Try using the final year of ten years to reflect on the good in your life or make goals for the future

5. You diss your partner to your friends
There are the nights she drinks too much with her friends, or the fact that he‘s always on his phone. Complaints and frustrations about your S.O. are healthy,but there‘s a fine line between venting to your boyfriend about his socks on the floor and calling him a major slob to whomever will listen. “Insulting is a form of cheating, because it‘s a betrayal,”Kirshen baum says. “It‘s a way of showing that you don‘t care about or respect your partner.”These little acts of (not being true or faithful to something) (get people used to something so they don’t react as strongly) you to your partner‘s feelings and (in the end) pave the way for physical(cheating on your wife or husband). If you‘re having serious issues, save them for your shrink.

6. You’d never tell your partner your secret desire to test out some light S&M
Maybe you‘re scary she‘ll think you‘re some sort of sex freak if you tell people about whatyou‘d really like to try, or maybe you think he‘ll roll his eyes at your want to deepen youremotional connection in the bedroom. Either way, hiding your relationship needs is maybe thebiggest reason why men and women cheat — they get those needs met in other places,Kirshenbaum says.
