I run number one dating site for affairs, there’s four telltale signs your partner’s cheating
AN Ashley Madison boss has revealed the telltale signs to look out for if you think your partner’s cheating.
Isabella Mise is international spokesperson for the world’s most popular extramarital affairs website and knows all the tricks that adulterers use.
The online dating service, launched in 2002, boasts 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 being exposed.
But there are warning signs to look out for which may suggest someone is about to cheat – or is already cheating.
Isabella said: “I think obviously in an ideal world, couples are having open conversations and sharing things that may or may not be working in the relationship.
“But that’s oftentimes not the case for a variety of reasons.
“So I think there’s typical things like not spending as much time together when they are together.
“Maybe one person is really distracted, always on their phone or always looking for excuses to not spend as much time at the house or things like that.
“I think spending more time at work and other excuses that sort of create distance within the relationship could be probably some of the more obvious signs.
“But it isn’t always so easy to tell. It really depends on the couple.”
Interestingly, finding out your partner is having an affair doesn’t always spell the end of the relationship.
Isabella added: “I think that people are now more inclined to be forgiving in their own relationships than maybe they would have been in the past.
“We have research but also anecdotally, we have evidence to show that this can be sort of a wake up call for a lot of relationships.
“When extramarital affairs come to light, I think a lot of couples actually choose to work through it.
“And they actually report a lot of times coming out stronger in the end, because I think it does force a lot of that open dialogue that might not have otherwise taken place.
“They’re not going to have the same relationship as they did before, but it certainly presents an opportunity for them to reinvent their marriage.
“And if we choose t, work through it and go forward, I do think in a lot of ways, it can improve the longevity and even the quality of the relationship long term if they both are willing to work through why that took place.”
