JAKARTA - The ups and downs of love life in the household are common. When a partner starts turning away or cheating, there are actually signs that can be observed. According to a psychologist from the University of Indonesia, Kasandra Putranto, there are some unusual behaviors that can be a sign that someone is cheating on their partner. Kasandra said. Meanwhile, common signs of infidelity in a relationship include the couple giving unusual and excessive affection suddenly. "This can happen, for example, when the person who is usually indifferent and doesn't really show affection, suddenly becomes the most romantic person in the world," Kasandra said.
Then, the partner badmouths someone out of the blue. According to Kasandra, this behavior is a way to cover up mistakes and reduce the suspicion of their partner. "A cheating partner can suddenly vilify or demean other people because that person is an eye witness or who knows he is having an affair," added Kasandra as reported by Antara. which can be signs of infidelity, he continued, including secretly picking up the phone, increasing or decreasing sexual intercourse, and the partner being suddenly busy.
According to Kasandra, the reasons someone commits an affair include anxiety in facing transition periods such as having their first child, children entering adolescence, children who have grown up and are starting to leave home, and entering retirement. Infidelity can also occur as an escape from an unhappy marriage, not achieving expectations in marriage, feelings of loneliness, unfulfilled sexual needs in marriage, absence of a partner both physically and emotionally, and opening up opportunities for infidelity such as easily meeting the opposite sex at work. "In addition, infidelity has often occurred in large families so that the values of loyalty are waning," added Kasandra.

"This means that people who have cheated in the past will have the possibility to cheat again in the future," concluded Kasandra Putranto.
