In today's day and age family values are at an all time low, with the average relationship standing only a fifty percent chance of surviving infidelity. The numbers are staggering!
Statistically the average relationship has about a 50% chance of infidelity. Does this seem too high? Originally I thought so. But then again, I also realized I was in a small minority of people who actually do something about it.
You've found this article, so you're already ahead of the curve. This is a huge step as it means that we share the same common trait that empower us women; the power to take action and not let bad things happen to us. We have dignity and self esteem, making us untouchable to the emotional damage a cheating boyfriend may try to bestow upon us.
As humans, many times we have the evidence right in front of us but we refuse to see it. Eventually, we let things go so long that it becomes part of normal life, a miserable one.
We often tend to worry about things for long periods of time waiting to take action. We often don't know what we're waiting for. We wait so long that each day that passes only increases the anxiety and the fear of the unknown.
GET A GRIP! This is your life. You call the shots. (At least you probably used to.) Regain control and take back your confidence. Here are the some of the most prevalent signs of a cheating boyfriend, and how to remedy this situation once and for all.
- Rolling in at 6:00 am is more than a long days work. It's a long night of thinking how he is going to explain to you where he's been all this time.
- Your once raging sex life has all but completely disappeared.
- Does your boyfriend fall under the repeat offender list when it comes to unfaithful behavior? Perhaps you have a clue already that you haven't looked into. Depending on your man's stories about past relationships this could be valuable evidence in building your case.
- Is eye contact becoming a scarcity? The guilt can play tricks on a guys mind, enough so where he acts over confident, but yet can't seem to look you in the eye.
- You have short brown hair, but you keep finding long blond hair on your boyfriends shirt, car, pantsetc.
- Check receipts! Find any receipts for flowers or jewelry but never received the benefit of his credit card dept. Look for recent purchase on receipts or even on-line computer statements.
- How about that email account? Better yet how about that computer? Anything look different? Cleaned up? Locked? Questionable MySpace surprises? Just got that intuition us women often get?
- Ah yes, The ever so popular cell phone! Any new trends in his usage or lack thereof? How about texting, or vibrating ringer. How about not answering calls? Out of all the signs of a cheating boyfriend, this is one of the easiest to pick up on and get proof of infidelity.
- Are his friends working in collusion with these question provoking scenarios? Men suck at covering for one another. Can you spot the inconsistencies?
- Does your back hurt from carrying all the weight in your relationship. Chances are he's giving you a hint, a very direct hint. Most men do this because their cheating on you and want you to break up with them.
Remember, we still have to build a solid case before we make any attempt at questioning your suspected cheating boyfriend. This will only hurt our chances of gathering concrete evidence! As women, we often think we have plenty of evidence, yet since we cannot predict how our suspected boyfriend will answer, we must be prepared to answer his every excuse with a fact. Remember, he can't deny anything, once you have solid proof!
