Most women have that instinct they can tell if their man has another woman in their life. Sometimes I wonder if men also have that same instinct because they tend to be emotionally blind. Can a man tell if his woman has another man if it is not that obvious? Like do you also have that instinct? I am just curious.

Her modus operandi will eventually change. If you know your woman very well then any slight change in her behavior should raise an eyebrow. More changes should then raise a flag. I have a keen gut feeling on certain things.

What the cat said...but more realistically...yeah, I think guys are more clueless about these things (in general). Might also be an ego thing going on plus A LOT more women tend to get cheated on it seems so I think they have heard the stories from their girlfriends and when the symptoms start to show up they might have an "ah ha!" type moment?

i agree that men don't see it as clearly as women do. I think women naturally have that intuition and sixth sense about things and I do think too that women are more worried about that kind of thing happening due to lower self esteem so they look for it and at times create issues that aren't there.
Whereas men just kind of float along, doing their thing and then surprise! They find out their woman is cheating and leaving them and then fall into the denial stage and I think it takes them a lot longer to recover than it does for some women.
Clear signs to watch for guys are drastic changes in behavior, schedule, a renewed interest in their appearance i.e., working out (when they didn't before) change in hair, makeup, attitude. Those are the biggest signs to watch for when your woman is doing something she shouldn't be doing. If you see it happening, its time to have a chat.

As a woman, I have that instinct and have known when I was cheated on. The last time, I knew then minute I realized "our" picture was no longer on the head of of "our" bed and I couldn't find it anywhere.. I had been out of town. He had brought her to our house and into our bed and bathed with her in MY tub! Soon as I saw my best friend, she confirmed he had cheated and with who. He was history after that....

That was just the last time, there were others and I knew it immediately. I was always proven right on those instincts.

My son knew his wife was cheating on him when she started wearing make up to go to work... she worked cleaning empty offices after they closed and nobody was there. DUH!

WOW! That's bold.

Anyways...I would think she would be happier and bubbly for no reason.

Oh...I work at places at night after they close but I swear I don't wear make up when I go.

Default i think so

i was dating this girl awhile back and we'd been exclusive.... then one weekend she avoided me for no apparant reason, then next time we came together, as soon as i slid inside, it felt like it had been different... it wasn't tight like it always was at first... maybe she'd been extra horny, but in the end it turned out she had slept with her ex 2 days prior. i remember as soon as i slid inside i thought to myself, "that doesn't feel right.... " i'm not small by anymeans, a little more than average.... but it just felt different. looser than it should have been... usually in the begining its so tight and slowly expands.... not that time tho... she said that she realized after she'd slept with her ex that she really wanted to be with me, he didn't do anything for her..... so maybe she'd realized she loved me and the act of sex turned her on more so... but i'll never know now. oh well.

That's so true. My friends gf went from having a flat enough stomach to a 6 pack and started acting like a real b**** and low and behold, she left him for another guy.

try to catch them in a lie.
example
a g/f said she was going out with her friend (which was nothing unusual)
but a few weeks later she said " i havent seen -insert name here- in a while

so i said didnt you just go out with her a couple weeks ago?

she said "o yea but i havent seen her for a while before that"

in other words she prob went out on a date and was telling me it was her friend

not to many people can keep their lies straight
if you suspect somthing is going on
bring a subject up in casual conversation and see if the story is still the same or if the story changed

Well, a surefire tip-off would be if she announced over dinner, "I got to ride a Harley Davidson last weekend."

Another one? If her attention wanders when you're talking to her. If all you're getting is the perfunctory "Yeah," "Sure," and "Whatever you want to do," then you have somebody who has checked out of the relationship and is just looking for the opportunity to blow out of there.
