The best way to know if he is cheating on you is to analyse and observe the behavior of your spouse. If you see any over the top or drastic change in his attitude or deeds it can mean that he is having an affair. The change can be both positive and negative. But at the hint of any suspicious behavior you should never assume that he is cheating. A smart move will be to examine such traits for a while and then coming to a conclusion. The past record of a person is also a litmus test to find out if he is having an affair.
It should be noted here that a change in your beloved’s attitude may also mean that he is alienated from you and there are no other strings attached to it. Therefore, confronting your mate should be done only when you are certain to a great extent. And have examined all other reasons for his dry behavior. Else it might jeopardise your relationship if you can’t prove your point.
Though it is never easy to spot cheaters and there are no sure shot signs that he is cheating on you. But still there are certain most commonly spotted behavior characteristics of a spouse having an affair. These can give you some clue if he is cheating on you.

He is always with one of them, when he should be at home or with you.
- Starts having privacy issues- When your partner is having an affair he will start complaining about privacy.
