The not-so-obvious tell-tale signs that he's a cheater
By Tanya Sweeney

He doesn't let his mobile phone out of his sight, and he has switched from a bill-pay account to a pay-as-you-go phone. The passenger seat in his car has been readjusted, or the radio has been switched to an unfamiliar station. He takes you to a new restaurant in town and the staff appear to know him. The Sat Nav has a swanky hotel or big country house programmed into it -- and you've never been there. He deletes his online history and changes his passwords frequently. There's an unfamiliar bottle in the drinks cabinet. He has suddenly started liking new/exotic foods, such as sushi. He will use youthful slang, or expressions you've never heard before. He brings up the subject of birth control. You get a number of hang ups, wrong numbers and blocked calls. Male first names you don't know crop up in his address book, or new names appear as 'S Hanrahan'. He always calls morning and early evening when he's away on business. He's working overtime, but there's no evidence of any more pay in the bank account. He remembers Valentine's Day for the first time.
