Did you notice that your significant other seems to be spending a lot of time texting someone else and when you try to take a peek they hide their phone?
Are you suspicious that your husband or wife might be engaging in an emotional affair?
Emotional cheating is actually pretty common and it can be difficult to spot because it doesn’t involve physical infidelity.
However, it doesn’t mean it’s any less serious and it can be just as damaging to your relationship.
Emotional cheating involves forming a deep connection with someone other than your significant other and is often done through texting or messaging on apps like Snapchat, TikTok, or even Instagram.
This way it is easy to keep up a secret relationship because you can always delete compromising messages before any else sees them.
