Watch Your Back, Honey

In Britain alone, 32% of divorces were attributed to infidelity last year. Half of all divorce cases involved hiring a sleuth. Hiring a sleuth – is it really necessary to catch a cheating spouse?

More ways to kill a cat

Tracking or catching a cheating spouse is not a walk in the park. Your cheating spouse is aware that you might catch him or her. That is why your cheating spouse is doing all the necessary precautionary measures so that he or she could sneak out and elope right under your nose without being caught red-handed.

Surely there is a way. In fact there are a lot of ways. One of the best ways is to hire a private eye. Hiring private eyes to work on divorce cases is on the rise in the UK and even elsewhere. Nearly half of the divorce cases last year employed private eyes to track suspected cheating spouses. Thanks to new search and spy technologies and to the vast information available on the Internet, private detectives or private eyes are more reliable now more than ever and can deliver results in a flash. Sherlock Holmes ain’t got nothing on today’s private eyes, I should say.

Going it hi-tech is one of the best ways to catch a cheating spouse. In countries where the cellular phone market is highly developed, services such as GPS on cell phone networks make finding someone with a cell phone instant by just a push of a button, literally. You could also shop around for computer softwares or Internet websites that allows for email and other computer activity monitoring, search for criminal records, background check and people search.

Some of the ways to catch a cheating spouse red handed is better discussed in AC’s How to Catch a Cheating Spouse Red Handed. The ways include recording dates and times of suspicious phone calls to and from your wife’s cell phone using your spouses phone bill records, checking receipts found in cars, pockets and drawers that could help you draw a conclusion that your spouse really is cheating on you.

Just remember that not knowing is the worst type of betrayal. You can’t afford to lose by not doing what you ought to do when you’ve got a hunch.

Road warriors do fall on the road

Alarmingly, spouses who travel are more prone to cheating than those who only work around town. Their pent up desire to be in someone else’s company is being reinforced when they are traveling because they are away from prying eyes. I am reminded here of the movie Derailed starred by Clive Owen and Jennifer Aniston. Read the rest of this entry »

Keeping the fire alive

Cheating among spouses or infidelity is a very emotional predicament. Many families have been shattered by this problem that has been plaguing many spouses around the world, leaving a deep pain to one or both of the spouses involved. Most unfortunately, if the couples have little children, they, too are deeply pained and suffer a great deal when spouses break up ultimately as a way to get out of this humiliating problem. To catch your spouse cheating is indeed a humiliating prospect to even ponder. 

Many already saw the signs but took them for granted. Some only reacted and tried to save the relationship but still failed because of the breech in the relationship caused by the spouse’s infidelity. 

If only spouses, no matter how long they’ve lived together, did all that they can to keep the love and desire for each other burning, had they been proactive enough, none would be tempted to stray away and seek emotional and physical satisfaction from someone else. For some people, after finding what they want out of a relationship, the fire dies and become bored with the relationship. Some spouses, because of lack of energy in their spouse’s sex life, find someone else to satisfy their lust for sex. Others stray away because they constantly seek the thrill of new relationships. 

Keeping an open line of communication is an essential key to avoiding cheating. Finding out by asking how each one is satisfying the emotional and physical and even material aspects of their relationship could open hidden strains that could blow up any time if taken for granted. Have you really satisfied each other sexually? Have you tried to relive the things that you love doing when you were still dating like going out to the movies, dining out in some hotel or fancy restaurant? Do you still buy flowers for your spouse? Do you still do the things that make your spouse look forward to getting to your house early after a hard day’s job, like cooking his favorite food or massaging him? 

Truth be told. Any spouse could fall victim to infidelity if spouses let temptation in or take each other for granted.

Who are you cheating?

MSNBC’s iVillage survey shows that almost half of all the men and half of the women who participated in the survey have cheated at some point in their lives. That’s just in one part of the globe. It only shows how alarmingly prevalent this problem is. Cheating spouses being caught have also been a scoop in almost all countries’ dailies. 

Cheating, it seems, has its consequences directed to only one party – the cheated. But when a spouse cheats, does he or she only cheat on his or her spouse? Who else do you cheat when you commit infidelity? 

Undeniably, the spouse being cheated bears the brunt of infidelity. It crushes the spouse being cheated and leaves him or her devastated and condescended. The psychological aftermath is sometimes too much to bear for many cheated spouses or could take a longer while to settle. There were even reports of suicide by those who were cheated by their spouses. Some were not able to cope and were miserable the rest of their lives. 

Unfortunately, though, for those spouses involved who have children, their innocent little children would also be affected. Upon divorce, these little children would have to experience the bitter legal struggles involved in the process. Some, unlucky to have not survived the ordeal, grow up to be miserable, thus they were also cheated on. They were cheated because spouses vow to take care of them and love them as well as they love and care for each other. 

Above all, when a spouse cheats, doesn’t he also cheat HIMSELF? Think about it. You let yourself in a situation where you’d feel guilty and all dirty because you know deep down what you’re doing is plain wrong. 

So the next time you feel like just letting it out and live a carefree world, stop and look around. See the people you care a lot and with whom you vowed to live your life for better or worst.

Virtual infidelity – is it really just virtual?

When the topic about marital infidelity or a spouse cheating is brought up, things that usually come out of our thoughts are spouses having extra-marital sex, spouses dating or seeing someone else and having whispered phone conversations late at night among many others. But today, infidelity is taking on a new avenue – the virtual avenue. But is online infidelity just virtual?

It’s just an email. It’s just an online chat. Big deal! These are the justifications of real people who flirted online. But according to a survey, majority of people (53 percent men and 73 percent women) think that even a conversation through email that hints at flirting sexually is cheating. One of the many justifications they have is that online correspondences are dehumanized forms of communicating. Obviously not! When you are communicating with other people elsewhere using your computer, it’s very much the same as talking to someone overseas through a long distance telephone call. When someone secretly satisfies his needs for love and affection from other people on the telephone, he or she instantly become guilty of infidelity. How is communicating with the intention of satisfying your lust and need for affection with someone else other than your spouse over the Internet any different?

So the next time your spouse is spending time online longer than usual, sneak up on him. You can check your browser’s history (unless, of course, he’s deleted the browsing history). The easiest way is to click the drop down menu on the address bar to see the list of recently visited sites. You can also visit your nearest computer shop and see if they have anything that could monitor your spouse’s email and other online activities.

Sleuthing out on your spouse

If one had a hunch that his or her spouse is cheating, should one spy on his or her spouse? It’s all up to you based on your values and commitment to save your relationship. After all, you did not enter your relationship just to have it ruined by someone else. So, how do you catch a cheating spouse?

  • You can ultimately hire a private investigator to do the sleuthing for you. But be wary of those that claim to be private eye. Check their credentials first. For many places, their laws require private investigators to obtain a license before practicing the profession. Also, it’s best to check what methods will be involved in tracking down your spouse.
  • If your spouse mentions a name fondly and repeatedly, chances are, he or she is fixated to the person. The next time your spouse talks about the person try to get your spouse to talk about that person some more. Get the person’s full name. Do some background check and see what you can make out of the results.
  • Use social networking sites such as Friendster or MySpace to track down your spouse (more on this on the next posts). He or she could have registered in one or both of these sites. Try to find out as much about the people with whom he or she has been networking with.
  • Once your spouse gets home, try to subtly smell his or her hair or clothes once you greet and hug. Strange scents like perfumes not worn by your spouse could mean he or she could have been hanging out with someone long enough to catch his or her scent on your spouse’s clothes.
  • Once your spouse’s cell phone bills are in, check for frequently dialed numbers.
  • Spy software could monitor your spouse’s online activities by tracking down emails and recently visited sites.

If you really care about your relationship, do these steps now before it’s too late.
