When a Man is Cheating: Recognizing the Signs and Establishing Boundaries:

Understanding the signs of infidelity can empower you to make informed decisions about your relationship. While each situation is unique, common signs of cheating may include:

• Changes in behavior, such as increased secrecy or defensiveness
• Suspicious or inconsistent stories about their whereabouts
• Emotional withdrawal or decreased intimacy
• Sudden interest in personal appearance or grooming
• Increased time spent on electronic devices, particularly secretive behavior around phones or computers
