Cheater Alert: Here’s What You Will Learn About Identifying When Your Spouse Lies
- Clues that’ll help you know when your husband lies, and how to catch a cheater.

First Thing’s First—Focus On His Physical Stance
You’ll be able to notice signs of lying spouse by focusing on his posture. Men have natural postures, and so do women. When a man is relaxed, he’ll tend to sit back and relax. Some of the notable postures of your man being relaxed when you put a question across will be him sitting back, arms on hand rest, cross-legged.
However, these relaxed postures will change when you question him about certain points that’ll put his manhood and loyalty under the scanner. If he’s truthful, you’ll know right away from his relaxed posture. But, if he twitches, changes his posture now and again, looks frantic, you can bet that he’s hiding the fact, lying, or trying to dodge your question.
Your questions will trigger his nervous system to react differently when put under pressure. If he’s truthful, he’ll remain as he is normally, if not, you can be sure that he’s lying.

Keep Your Ears Up For Changes In Speech Pattern
To catch a cheater you’ll have to pay attention to their speech patterns. Liars and dishonest individuals when put under intense pressure alter their way of talking.
Simply put, you’ll notice your man speaking faster than usual. This indicates that he’s nervous and probably lying. Another observation will be his rate of speech. He may start speaking slowly as if he’s trying very hard on what comes out of his mouth—liars do this very often.
An indicator that highlights his dishonesty will be his voice’s rise in pitch. If you notice him raising his voice that exceeds his normal pitch, you can be sure that he’s trying to bury the truth.
-
Putting The Blame On You
If your husband lies to avoid conflict by counter-questioning or blaming you, understand that he’s untruthful.
This is in reality a psychological method undertaken by the perpetrator that can make an innocent believe he or she is the one at fault in reality. Before you know it, you can find yourself questioning your own sanity and innocence, or feel how you, the victim, have suddenly become the accused.
“How can you even think about me like that?” and “I think you’re the one who’s lying”, or “You should see a doctor or psychologist” or something along such lines are flags that you’ll have to look out for to unearth your man’s unfaithfulness and his attempts to corner you.

Enveloping His Eyes And Body
When your husband cheats, and you notice that he’s trying to avoid eye contact or move away instead of answering your questions, latch on to the fact that he’s lying to you.
Does he try to hide behind an object while answering? Does he wear a hood or a cap, or looks away instead of looking you in the eyes? Or does he twist his body in such a manner that he’s facing you but the rest of his body isn’t? Well, all these signs mean that he’s uncomfortable answering your questions and is lying.
He’s also trying very hard to dodge your questions and appear disinterested so that you drop your doubts. You just have to look at his eyes to know the truth.
There isn’t much comfort in advertising to the world by saying ‘my husband lies to me’. It’ll probably push your husband farther away. Moreover, people might start blaming your for his indiscretions. Lying to your spouse never bears fruit, even though it’s a white lie.
As a wife, it’s your duty to confront your man and try your best at saving, and healing the bond. If your efforts don’t put him on the right track, know that you tried your best, and that you’re much stronger than him.
