I run the number 1 business site in the world, there are four signs your partner is cheating
An Ashley Madison boss has revealed the telltale signs to look out for if you think your partner is cheating.
Isabella Mise is an international spokesperson for the world’s most popular website about extramarital affairs and knows all the tricks adulterers use.
Launched in 2002, the online dating service has more than 60 million members in 53 countries and has grown in popularity after a Netflix documentary called Sex, Lies & Scandal explored a 2015 hack that led to millions of users’ intimate data becoming public made.
But there are warning signs to look out for that could indicate someone is about to cheat – or is already cheating.
Isabella said: “I think in an ideal world, couples would obviously have open conversations and share things that are or aren’t working in the relationship.
‘But that is often not the case for various reasons.
“So I think there are typical things like not spending as much time together when they are together.
“Maybe one person is very distracted, always on the phone or always looking for excuses not to spend as much time at home or things like that.
“I think spending more time at work and other excuses that create distance within the relationship can probably be some of the most obvious signs.
“But it’s not always that easy to say. It really depends on the couple.”
Interestingly enough, discovering that your partner is having an affair doesn’t always mean the end of the relationship.
Isabella added: ‘I think people are now more inclined to be forgiving in their own relationships than they might have been in the past.
“We have research, but also anecdotally we have evidence that this can be kind of a wake-up call for a lot of relationships.
‘When extramarital affairs come to light, I think many couples actually choose to work through it.
“And they actually report that they come out stronger in the end because I think it forces a lot of that open dialogue that might not have happened otherwise.”
‘They won’t have the same relationship as before, but it certainly gives them an opportunity to reinvent their marriage.
“And if we choose to, and work through it, and move forward, I think in many ways it can improve the longevity and even the quality of the relationship in the long run if they’re both willing to figure out why that occurred.” “
