Is She/He Cheating? Signs You Need To Organize 08-14-2007
I think the guy is just getting people riled up over things that could be innocent, but we had tips Tuesday that your spouse may be cheating. We also went beyond Murphy's Law, found out we need to get organized, and how to, safely, make your man jealous.
Tips Your Spouse Is Cheating On You Your spouse is cheating on you if you catch them doing any of these 15 things, which a private investigator says are top signs of infidelity:
- You just feel something is going on. Trust your intuition.
- There are noticeable changes in your sex life.
- You catch him lying at times.
- She has become distant at times.
- There are periods of time when you cannot reach him by phone.
- She has become increasingly critical of you.
- He deletes all caller-ID information from his telephones.
- She has changed the way she looks or dresses.
- He is away more often, claiming he needs more "alone time."
- More frequently than before, she needs to work late at night or on weekends.
- His phone bills are higher, and there are numbers on it that you don't recognize.
- Her phone rings at odd times.
- He spends countless hours, usually late at night, on the computer.
- She keeps perfume and a change of clothes in her car.
- He hides his cell phone bill or home phone bill so you won't see it.
Four Ways To Make Him Jealous We stole this from Men's Health magazine editor David Zinczenko who says you can safely make your man jealous to get him to pay more attention to you. Notice that some of these seem very simlar to the signs you're cheating as listed above.
David does warn that while you may have something to gain by pushing his buttons, you also have an awful lot to lose if you hit the wrong one.
David gives the following advice:
- Stay Up Later Than He Does
And make sure you're logged in. When he says he's going to bed, tell him you'll be in later, that you just have a few things to look up on the computer. Not that he doesn't trust you and not that you're going to check up on an ex or two, but he doesn't know that.
And his wandering mind may just think you're up to something. And the thought that you might be means that you'll soon be getting more attention than David Beckham in the Los Angeles airport.
- Have Drinks with Friends
He knows you talk. He knows you talk more when you're with friends, especially when you add drinks to the mix. And he cares deeply about how he's portrayed in your version of the media - that is, your social network - and how he stacks up against other men. Go out and compare notes with the girls, and selectively report back on the findings of the kangaroo court. He may be less likely to give you damning evidence to report.
- Click on ESPN.com
Read up on the latest sports happenings, and bring them up later to your man. When he asks how the heck you knew Padraig Harrington won the British Open, tell him that a couple guys from work were talking about it.
The thought of you playing Erin Andrews (sports reporter for ESPN since 2004 ... C'mon, stay with me here!) around the coffee machine will make him steam without totally burning. (Note: Anything you do with male colleagues that's potentially frisky will infuriate him - and can potentially backfire on you.)
- Whoop Him
Challenge him in something physical - whether it's in an upcoming 5K or in your regular yoga class. It's hard for even the least competitive men not to feel antsy when his woman is stronger, faster, or more flexible than he is.
He'll say it doesn't bother him when you cross the finish line first or scratch your ears with your toes. Plus, research shows that even a little healthy competition can ignite your sex life. Don't push the Venus Williams act too hard, though, or he'll wonder if his losing streak will send you in search of a man who's faster, stronger, and better.
Beyond Murphy's Law We've all experienced Murphy's Law some days. You know, everything that can go wrong will go wrong. But there are other unwritten laws... see if you can relate.
- Law of Doing Your Taxes -- You carefully add all your expenses-deductions, everything... you check it twice. And as you're about to put it in the mail, you look under the kitchen table and you see 3 more receipts that fell on the floor.
- Law of Locker Rooms -- If there are only two people in a locker room at the gym, you'll be right next to the other person... every time.
- Law at the Theater or Movies -- At every event, the people who have seats in the middle arrive last.
- Law of Coffee -- You finally get a nice cup of coffee because all your co-workers drank the last pot and didn't make a fresh one. As soon as you have the coffee, your boss asks you to do something... right now. And that thing lasts as long as it takes for the coffee to get cold.
- Law of Airplanes, Theaters & Restaurants -- It's the law that in every one of these where you are, there must be at least one screaming baby crying it's little lungs out.
Ten Signs You MUST Get Organized From Woman's Day:
- You don't want people to visit because your house is a mess.
- You stack books on the floor because there's nowhere else to put them.
- You can't find your receipts when you want to make returns.
- You frequently have to pay late fees on bills.
- You can't find a place to work on your hobbies because clutter litters every flat surface.
- You hate to put away clean laundry because your drawers are too full.
- You can't find your good tablecloth and candlesticks when guests come over.
- You put items on top of their containers instead of inside.
- You have to search the entire house for supplies, such as printer paper or glue.
- You can't find a place for food or new clothes when you come home from the store.
