Anyone who has ever told a lie understands the risk of getting caught when people start pressing you for more details. With each layer that you add, you’re that much closer to exposing yourself as a liar. “What is not talked about can be very telling,” Brateman says. “For example, if she comes home from a two-day conference and doesn’t talk about the conference that could be a clue that she didn’t attend the conference. People do not like to talk about something that hasn’t happened for fear of being discovered.”

It’s also a big deal when you’re not the first or even second person that she talks to about her day, according to Brateman. “It likely means she’s talking about all that to someone else,” Brateman says. “And sharing personal details of her life with this other person who truly listens and encourages her only deepens their emotional connection.” Brateman says when a spouse used to tell you about a co-worker or friend and then stops talking about them entirely, chances are something may be up.

“Cheaters have the tendency to change physically,” Orlando says. “Love handles disappear, posture changes, makeup gets applied daily, and their muscle tone/definition returns.” So, if your girlfriend who used to wear sweats and no makeup to do errands is now getting dressed up and doing her makeup before leaving the house to go to the convenience store, you have cause for alarm, according to Orlando. The key factor here is whether these changes are sudden and drastic, according to Orlando. “Sometimes it is not necessarily what they are doing, but what they are doing differently or not at all,” Brateman says

While most people would think a sign of cheating would be that you’re not having as much sex as you used to, Brateman and Orlando explain that a major warning sign is when the way in which a couple makes love changes dramatically. “A sudden interest in experimenting new positions or techniques in bed or interest in things that she wouldn’t consider before,” Brateman says can be a sign that she’s having sex with other partners and bringing it back into your bedroom.

”When you calmly tell your partner that something feels different, and she responds in an aggressive way it may be because she is deflecting or hiding something,” Brateman says. “In a loving relationship your partner wants to know how you are feeling. This is part of the process of resolving what feels different or uncomfortable.” Brateman stresses that if there isn’t trust in the relationship, it won’t be able to survive or grow so the onus is also on you. “The first thing to do is to stop seeking constant reassurance after you have been reassured,” Brateman says. “This puts pressure on the relationship without any benefit.” Orlando says that if she gets angry in an instant or acts overly nice it’s a red flag.
