3. Deflecting simple questions

The next entry on our list of the things cheating women develop is deflecting simple questions. When your partner starts to avoid questions and starts acting suspicious, this could be an indication that she’s hiding something.

If she repeats your questions back to you right away before answering, then chances are that she’s searching her mind for a lie. In the same vein, she may become very defensive when you come up to her with questions about her future plans or whereabouts.

According to couple therapists, if she starts to deflect information that she used to share with you voluntarily in the past, she’s hiding something she doesn’t want to tell you about.

    Yep. My wife did every thing in this article. When I realized what was going on I told her I knew and if she was leaving I would help her pack and help her find a new place of her own so I could start my life over with someone that wanted me. This shocked her because like a lot of women she expected me to beg her to stop and we’d work it out. She started to cry and telling me how she wanted to make our marriage work. I set some parameters for making it work. That included counseling and some other conditions for both of us to abide by. We survived it and are still together, but she did tell me a few years later that she did not expect the reaction I had to her cheating and how it changed her mind about the guy she was cheating with. Don’t get me wrong. That thrill a man has about loving the woman he married is gone forever. He still loves her but is always willing to walk away from her if she ever does it again. Cheating, even if a couple can work through it always has permanent consequences.

    I’m 53 have 3 children with the same woman, not together after 22,5 years however the sting of the first betrayal led me not to marry, after I left a few months down the line I met someone funny thing is she did it too… Blamed me burnt my belongings, wait met someone else and spent 13 yrs but signs were all over and no did not marry, truly a shame but I feel woman cannot be trusted after all. Good thing I never married not a one… I can do all bad by myself, besides I can do it all cook,clean,sew, and work… The only one I trust is solely me. I feel women are just not faithful anymore period.

    The reason for the change is the spirit of the man goes into the woman & vice versa , psychology can’t explain it , & one reason may be they don’t want to receive that light , it’s not professional oh it’s not presidential , like duh what’s that got to do with anything.
