How to Tell If He's Unfaithful

Every relationship is different, but you deserve to feel secure and safe in every relationship you enter. It's natural to have doubts or suspicions; the trick is being open and communicative enough that you can talk about your anxieties openly and build trust, so that cheating is never even on the table. We talked to relationship experts about how to spot cheating and what to do about it, and here's what they said:

  • Relationship coach Michelle Jacoby says that signs of infidelity include: "He is not where he says he's going to be at the time that he says he's going to be there. He takes his phone with him into the restroom. He keeps his phone face down on the table. He has changed his physical appearance... Not really telling you about his whereabouts. Not being reliable. Not introducing you to his friends. Sort of compartmentalizing you..."[1]
  • Licensed professional counselor Tara Vossenkemper, PhD, LPC, says, "You could see some telltale things like all of a sudden, they take their phone with them all the time. They hide it. They change the password... Specifically, a change in their behavior from what has been normal. So, this is again easier to do with someone you've been together with for longer."[2]
  • Licensed clinical social worker Raffi Bilek, LCSW-C, advises that "the best thing to do is just talk to them and say 'Hey, I've been noticing this, that, and the other. I'm wondering if something is going on.'... the antidote to secrecy and lying is transparency and honesty."[3]
  • Relationship coach Kelli Miller, LCSW, MSW, tells us, "I'm all about really sitting down with your partner and trying not to be accusatory, but really just sit down with your partner and just say, hey, I'm having some fears that you're going outside the relationship, can we talk about this in an open and honest way?"[4]
  • Relationships coach John Keegan reminds us that "if you come at somebody in an attacking way, then you can all of a sudden do a bunch of wrong things that make it way worse. So, generally, what you want to do is call it out on him, ask him about it, get him to open up about it, and see how he responds."[5]
