Jakarta – Cheating is when a person in a romantic relationship has an emotional or sexual relationship with someone else without their partner's consent.
Actually, in work life, cheating also can happen. With people spending long hours working, many of their close relationships now lie at work.
Based on the results of a survey released by Just Dating, 40 percent of men and women in Indonesia admit to having cheated on and betrayed their partners.
So, what are the signs that your husband is having an affair with his coworker? Here's how to find out.

1. See the changes in behavior and routine
One of the most common indicators of infidelity is a marked change in your husband's behavior and daily routine. While these changes don't necessarily mean he's having an affair, they can raise suspicions. Watch out for these signs
a. Increased secrecy: If your husband becomes more secretive with his phone, email, or social media accounts and won't share his passwords, this could be a sign that he's hiding something.
b. Unexplained absences: Frequent late nights at work, sudden business trips, or going out with "friends" you didn't invite could be a concern.
c. Changes in appearance: If your husband suddenly starts paying more attention to his appearance, going to the gym, or dressing differently with no apparent explanation, it could be a sign that you are trying to impress someone else.
2. Overly defensive behavior
When someone is involved in an affair, they often become more defensive to deflect suspicion. Beware when they do the following things:
a. Overreact: If your husband reacts defensively or angrily when you ask simple questions about his daily life, it may indicate that he is hiding something.
b. Shifting the blame: a cheating husband may try to blame you, accusing you of being overly jealous or paranoid.
c. Justification: He may give unconvincing explanations for his behavior or give justifications for spending time with certain colleagues.
d. Denial: Even when confronted with evidence or inconsistencies in her story, the cheating partner may continue to deny wrongdoing.

3. Feelings and intuition
Your feelings and intuition can be strong indicators, but not all of them because you need evidence. While not always accurate, they can be a starting point to address your concerns such as the following:
a. Your gut feeling: If something is not right in your relationship, pay attention to your gut feeling. Often, your intuition can warn you of discrepancies in your partner's behavior.
b. Open the communication first: Try to have intimate conversations with your husband about your feelings and concerns. Express your concerns without hurling accusations, as open dialog can help clarify misunderstandings.
c. Seek professional help: If you are still suspicious and believe that you are being cheated on, consider seeking the help of a therapist or marriage counselor. They can help you both work through your issues and provide a safe space for open discussion.
