One of the painful realities concerning cheating and infidelity is when the resolute spouse recognizes that they missed many early warning signs. Many times they knew something was not right “in their gut” but they ignored it. They sensed that things were not what they should be and dismissed it. The early warning signs are not to be dismissed. When your spouse distances themselves from you, or there is a sudden change in their talkativeness, or the usual patterns of behavior are changed it is not the time to dismiss it. When your gut tells you something, then is the time to take action and ask, rather than ignore it to your own detriment. Learn to trust your gut rather than ignore it.
Many people of the world operate on the principle that it is better to ask for forgiveness than permission. Sadly, they apply this to affairs as well. Since that is a prominent pattern, it is better to ask and be wrong than to ignore and be right.
