Is He Married? Is She Cheating?
How to Spot a Cheater Online
- Be wary of anyone who fails to post a picture on site (or insists on emailing it to you privately). What are they trying to hide?
- Cheating Signs: do they avoid mentioning their family and friends?
- Is the personal information they provide to you sketchy at best? You should know their last name and where they live by the time you progress to talking on the phone.
- Are there inconsistencies in their history?
- Are they only contactable by cellphone? Do you always get voicemail when you call? Or, even worse, have they got your number, but failed to give you theirs?
- If you've been dating (in person, rather than just corresponding online), have you met any of their family or friends?
- Are they only contactable at set times, either very late or during work hours?
Signs that someone is married and cheating are obvious when they’re listed like this, but can be much harder to spot in real life.
Trust your instincts when it comes to infidelity signs. If you think something’s fishy, it probably is.
