This problem is not uncommon. It would seem that your marriage was happy, there were no signs of trouble, and suddenly you accidentally discover your husband’s correspondence with another. When the emotions caused by an unexpected discovery subside, two main questions remain: why this happened and how to behave now in order to preserve the relationship.
Most often, women consult with friends or ask visitors to women’s forums for their opinions, but their advice is not always correct. Following such recommendations can sometimes only make the situation worse. If you have witnessed your husband's secret correspondence, the advice of a psychologist is the only thing that makes sense to listen to. Let's find out what experts think about this.
How to understand that he is corresponding with someone else
You can guess that your boyfriend has started flirting or cheating online based on obvious signs:
- Behavior has changed. May become rude and irritable, as if he is tired of spending time with his family. On the other hand, sometimes men become surprisingly sweet and polite - out of guilt, they make up for their virtual romance with good deeds.
- A man spends a lot of time on his phone and at the computer, while the sound of a notification about a new message is constantly heard.
- If the sound is turned off, you can read the emotions on his face: a smile, occasional laughter, an enthusiastic sparkle in his eyes, complete involvement in the conversation.
- Even if he is not texting right now, he constantly looks at his phone, checks for messages, and never leaves his equipment unattended and without a password.
- Many women discover romantic correspondence in passing, accidentally seeing a message. A quick glance over the shoulder snatches piquant words. When using a computer, a pop-up notification appears about a new message in which the interlocutor openly flirts.
A accidentally noticed message can change your whole life.
Life story : “My husband constantly corresponded with someone on a social network, but when I approached, he closed the tab.
I deliberately broke my laptop and asked to use his computer to send a letter. When he left, I copied all their correspondence and emailed it to myself. Then I slowly read all their romantic correspondence and printed out the hottest phrases. He couldn’t get away with it, and I couldn’t forgive.”
How to check if your husband is communicating with another girl on the Internet?
Where does the husband correspond with another?
If a husband communicates with another girl and he likes her, then he will definitely begin to behave differently than usual. This is not the best news for you, because for you it gets worse:
- He becomes rude and aggressive towards you. Everything annoys him, especially requests, even the smallest ones
- You quarrel more often, although there is no particular reason for this
- The husband stops showing signs of attention, as well as devoting time, you simply do not spend it together
- When it comes to personal meetings, his income is sharply reduced. After all, to develop relationships on the side you can’t do without money.
- More and more often, your husband begins to talk about your shortcomings
This behavior doesn't just happen. After all, a man is attracted to another woman and admires her, and maybe even falls in love. Perhaps it's just friendship.
To understand whether a man is actually communicating with someone, check his mobile phone. This may not be entirely correct, but the method really works, because messages, calls and maybe even photos will definitely be there. Pay special attention to unfamiliar contacts in your call list, as well as the duration of calls. Be sure to take a closer look at how he behaves if his phone rings. If he doesn’t try to talk to you, then perhaps a girl called him. Moreover, he will become noticeably nervous. Well, if he doesn’t have anything on his phone, then look at social networks. Maybe he is texting with someone, giving them likes.
Why do men text other women?
The problem is quite common in the modern world, and there are many reasons for it. In general, psychologists name 12 events that precede online correspondence with another:
- Spouses have no time to communicate - they are busy with work, home, and children.
- The desire to escape from everyday and financial problems.
- Fatigue from raising children, which takes up all the time.
- The couple hasn’t gone anywhere together for a long time, they want romance.
- There is no passion in bed.
- There was irritation from each other.
- There are no common interests with my wife and nothing to talk about.
- Spouses do not share their impressions of the past day: what happened, how work was, how the meeting went.
- The desire to be distracted and get new sensations, as routine has set in in life.
- I want to get the attention of women, but I don’t dare to commit real betrayal.
- My husband has no real friends with similar interests with whom he can simply have a heart-to-heart talk.
- Curiosity and interest, a desire to get to know new people.
- Internet addiction: second life, virtual.
This is an incomplete list of reasons why husbands begin to actively or passively flirt with girls online.
The most common reason: the search for new sensations and emotions.
The perpetrators of flirting themselves, in an anonymous survey, named the following reasons for virtual romances:
- search for new sensations (14%);
- communication started by accident and away we go (12.5%)
- I want to flirt, at least virtually (12%);
- lack of self-confidence, increased self-esteem (10%);
- sexual problems in the family (9%);
- love for another (7%);
- from idleness (4%).
To understand why a guy is texting another girl in your situation, you need to talk frankly with him or go to family counseling. The psychologist's answer sometimes helps save the family and restore harmonious relationships.
Three reasons for this behavior
Communication on the Internet is a harmless way for a man to make up for what he lacks in his family. This behavior of a spouse can be caused by various circumstances.
According to psychologists, the following reasons most often contribute to this:
- Lack of warmth on the part of the spouse.
- Lack of communication in couples. If a woman is too passionate about everyday life and raising children, a man wants to win at least a little space for himself. This situation is often observed in a family shortly after the birth of a baby. The young mother is so absorbed in caring for her child that she does not have enough energy and time for her husband.
- Lack of gratitude and admiration. A man needs to feel that his wife appreciates his efforts, endeavors, and achievements.
How to behave if you find your loved one texting
If you discover that a man is corresponding with another woman, do not panic and do not start a scandal. If emotions take over, you can cause trouble or make yourself look unsightly. So first, drink something calming and get some privacy to calm down. And then talk.
You need to talk in a calm voice, without reproaches and with a smile. Start with simple questions: “who writes this?”, “what do they write?”
Depending on the chosen one’s answer, you will either calm down or confirm your suspicions:
- Ex-wife . If they have common children and their communication is connected with them, do not forbid them to do this. On the contrary, you can sympathize or offer your help.
- Colleague . Usually this is a harmless correspondence about work issues that did not have time to be resolved in the office. Just in case, you can casually ask, “Did something happen?” and move closer to the screen to read the correspondence. If he hurriedly closes the window and waves it off, you can doubt the working relationship. But if there is nothing to hide, most likely the man will irritably comment on his colleague’s intrusiveness and show the messages. Defuse the situation by asking if he corresponds with everyone or only with pretty and unmarried girls.
- Another woman . You won’t get a direct answer; it’s rare for a man to immediately admit to a virtual affair. Most likely he will say that an acquaintance is simply imposing her communication, and he is responding out of politeness. The excuses may be different, but everything will be clear from the behavior. He will start to get nervous, mumble something, quickly close the chat, and try to take the conversation in a different direction.
If, upon hearing such a harmless question, a man explodes, starts screaming and accuses him of being overly curious, this is most likely a defensive reaction. When he was caught red-handed, he became nervous and decided to attack first. Out of confusion, the woman will begin to make excuses, and he will get away with it.
Some don’t even hide the correspondence, considering it innocent flirting.
In any case, it is necessary to react to this event in order to prevent or stop flirting. If you close your eyes to such behavior, it will become the norm - because he sees that you don’t mind.
How to start a correspondence with someone else
Meaningless flirting with a semi-familiar or completely unfamiliar woman can be nothing more than entertainment for a man mired in family routine, a way to bring a little drive and zest to life. Why does he need drive when he has children at home?
Rhetorical question, dear ladies. Most men by nature remain warriors and hunters, albeit somewhere deep inside. And they need to “take this nature out for a walk” at least sometimes. In this case, treason is not implied.
Why is the ex-girlfriend of the current family man so dangerous? Because his old feelings can easily be revived, especially if the rival is in some way superior to the wife of the restless subject. What to do? How to fight and - most importantly - with whom? With your husband or with your rival? And is there a need for a fight here?
For a man, the girl on the other side of the screen is a mysterious, inaccessible nymph. She is a figment of fantasy, a desired hunting trophy. Unlike his wife - albeit beloved, but so familiar, so unraveled and “researched”. The husband is not interested in the real identity of the one with whom he is corresponding. He doesn’t care whether she cooks well or how she is as a friend and mother.
Because the virtual world is a world without responsibility, a world in which only beautiful words matter. And these words do not need to be confirmed by deeds or actions.
It seems that the beginning of the process is quite innocent. But... most men don't stop there. When the husband plunges headlong into the virtual world and becomes a hostage to the game he himself started, the wife turns into a kind of vixen, distracting and annoying. A beautiful stranger gives him new impressions, surprises and pleases him. And the wife... And the wife at this stage should think about how her husband came to such a life.
How to save a relationship
First of all, a man must understand that correspondence with other women is a betrayal. Only if he realizes his mistake will it be possible to move on and resolve everything peacefully.
Relationships are the daily work of both spouses, so without his help nothing will work out. He must agree to help and assist you. The ability to find the right solution and compromise is very important. But you must meet each other halfway.
Read the correspondence
But only if you want it yourself. Many women are able to come up with scenarios in their heads that are much more terrible than they actually are. Therefore, in some cases it is better to familiarize yourself with real texts than to beat yourself up from ignorance.
Ask your husband to provide access, and calmly read all the information. So you can understand the level of your husband’s offense:
- friendly correspondence with light flirting, where the initiative came from the woman;
- virtual sex with the exchange of intimate photos, discussion of real meetings, active flirting of the husband.
Depending on the severity of the crime, you can consider the punishment.
Find out the reasons for the correspondence
In a friendly manner, ask your spouse about his relationship with virtual girls. Take an interest in the reasons that prompted the correspondence. What didn’t suit you in the relationship, what made you interested in it, what emotions it gave.
Most often, men say that they were simply curious, interested in communicating with someone else and getting new emotions.
Curiosity is the first step to betrayal.
Above you can see the common reasons that usually push men to correspond, but in your case the situation may be different. Listen carefully to your spouse and hear. Don't be offended if he criticizes and blames you, try to understand what didn't suit him. Then it will be easier to fix everything.
Explain that this is unpleasant for you
Tell your husband how you feel. Try to speak “I-message”, focusing on your experiences, and not on his mistakes. Eg:
- “When you text other women, I feel lonely and deceived.”
- “When you talk to her, I’m afraid
that you don’t love me anymore and we’ll break up.” - “When I found out about your correspondence, I was afraid that you would commit real betrayal.”
- “When you ignore me, I am offended by your indifference.”
- “When you don’t want to discuss the issue, I worry that you don’t care about my feelings.”
- “When I found out that you were communicating with someone on the Internet, I was angry and still cannot forgive you for your betrayal.”
This is especially important in a situation where the husband does not recognize his offense as something serious. Well, he texts, he flirts on the Internet, but in real life he remains faithful. The future of your relationship depends on whether you can communicate your feelings to him.
Spend more time together
Real communication is more attractive than virtual communication, so offer your husband family activities. First, you need to find common ground - common topics of conversation and passion. Remember what you talked about before you lost touch with each other. Renew these conversations or find new topics.
Real communication is always better than virtual communication.
Agree to turn off gadgets in the evenings and on weekends and devote time to your family. Buy board games, go on a picnic, take a walk in the park, play a computer game together.
If you have children, setting aside at least one evening a week or month for romance is very important. Leave them with a nanny or relatives, and go out somewhere together or have a romantic dinner at home. Make love when there are no distractions and you can relax.
Change your behavior
Remember what your man complained about when he explained the reasons for his misconduct. To save the family, you need to change so that the situation does not repeat itself:
- Attention husband . In a series of household chores, child care, shopping runs and other routine, you often have to give up something. Women usually refuse time for themselves and their husbands. But it is better to reduce or share household chores with your husband, because this will not hit the family so hard.
- Take an interest in his life . At dinner or while cooking together, ask about their day. It’s good if you can ask specific questions - how the meeting with company N went, what was decided at the meeting, how project X is progressing. Such clarifications will let your husband know that you are really listening to him and remember important things.
- Look after yourself . After marriage, many women relax and focus on everyday life, forgetting about beauty. But men often love with their eyes, so appearance is very important. Maintain your weight within normal limits, do not wear “lounge” clothes at home, and do a simple hairstyle in the morning.
- Stop nagging . Often husbands run away into a virtual romance in order to at least get admiration and approval somewhere. After all, the wife at home only criticizes, reminds of mistakes, compares with others, demands to become better, stronger, faster. Stop putting pressure on your spouse so that he can relax at home and doesn’t have to go online headlong.
Sharing housework brings families together.
In turn, you can ask him to change to make it easier for you to pay attention to him. Divide responsibilities around the house, look after the child in the evening, give a ride home from work, buy groceries after work, don’t go away for the whole weekend with friends.
The main thing is to remember about “I-messages”, it will be easier to agree with them: “I will have more time to communicate with you if you wash the dishes in the evening.”
Bring back the romance
Many couples eventually turn into simple cohabitants who raise children together. There is no passion, romance or fidelity in this relationship. To avoid becoming one of them, you need to work on your relationships. Both.
Without love, husband and wife are just cohabitants.
You don’t need to sing a serenade every day or give 1000 roses, because romance is in the little things:
- prepare a delicious lunch by decorating the dish in the shape of a heart;
- watch a romantic film (or another genre) in an embrace;
- buy beautiful underwear, new perfume and appear in front of your spouse wearing only this;
- write a sweet romantic note and stick it in his pocket or hang it on the refrigerator;
- While you are preparing dinner, turn on romantic music and slow dance;
- kiss and hug each other for no reason;
- make small surprises: make a nice gift, bring lunch to work;
- help each other in different matters, etc.
Love is shown in actions, not in words. And she slips into little things that are more important than staged scenes.
Why does your husband talk to girls behind your back?
It’s unpleasant if the other half pays attention not only to you, but also to some other unknown ladies. You, like any normal wife, are at a loss when you notice that your husband is again drumming on the smartphone screen with a mysterious smile. It is unlikely that a husband communicates with other girls just like that. Think about what pushed him to take such a risky step. If nothing comes to mind, look among the following possible causes:
- Lack of attention from the wife. Men need affection and love no less than women. When was the last time you told your spouse that you love him? How long have you been praised? If pleasant words come out of your mouth only on holidays, then it is not surprising that your husband flirts with other women. It is possible that he gets much more attention there than from his legal wife. And don’t say that you don’t have time and energy for calf tenderness. It will take a few seconds to write “I love you” and send this message. And your spouse’s joy from such recognition will last long enough not to seek communication with another friendly lady.
- The desire to assert oneself. Every representative of the stronger sex wanted to feel like Casanova at least once in their life. This is facilitated by complexes: “I am ugly, uninteresting and uncharming.” Marriage does not always eliminate self-flagellation, especially when the wife bullies her husband even more: “You can’t fit into any of your pants anymore! Why do you earn so little? And Lizka’s husband has already risen to the rank of chief engineer!” Just imagine how a spouse feels who listens to such “compliments” almost every day. And the ladies on the Internet, who have been waiting for the prince, do not skimp on praise and flattery in the hope of lassoing the hero of their novel. That’s why intimate correspondence is so necessary for both downtrodden men and lonely women. Virtual communication with girls who are friendly and uninterested in many everyday issues helps you gain recognition, feel like an attractive macho and assert yourself, at least remotely, while your grumpy wife sleeps with her teeth against the wall.
- Lack of intellectual communication with wife. Feelings are feelings, and live communication on interesting topics has not been canceled. If you and your spouse have few common interests, the man will sooner or later want to talk to someone else. For example, he loves astronomy, but you are not at all interested in the fact that the moon is now in the constellation Ursa Major. You are more inclined to watch your favorite talk show and go to bed than to climb onto the roof of a nine-story building at midnight and risk your health for the sake of a few luminous points. The disappointed husband simply does not know what to do in such a situation, and begins to correspond with another woman, who is also not indifferent to the heavenly bodies. Remember that a wise wife is always aware of her husband’s hobbies and tries to understand them at least a little in order to please him.
- Discussion of family problems. Many couples have disagreements. However, not all spouses know how to solve them without involving outsiders. A common reason for men to communicate with the opposite sex is their desire to discuss family problems and hear an outside point of view. It’s scary to talk to mutual friends: what if they tell your wife or spread rumors? But sharing with a virtual girlfriend so that she can take pity and scold the negligent wife will seem like a great idea to many men. The danger of this action is that the woman on the other end of the line may have designs on someone’s husband and not just encourage him during his next confession. From here it is not far to discord with the legal spouse, and maybe even to divorce.
- Friendly communication. Maybe it's not so bad after all. A man’s communication with the opposite sex should not always alarm a suspicious and vigilant wife, especially if she knows that her husband is talking with an old friend: a classmate or colleague. They have something to remember and discuss, so friendly correspondence or periodic calls in this case are appropriate, although unpleasant for the legal spouse. But wives rarely adequately perceive such conversations and impose bans on communication with girls, preferring to keep their husbands on a short leash. This is wrong because the forbidden fruit is sweet. Such behavior will only rekindle your spouse’s interest in communicating with his long-time girlfriend.
It is not for nothing that friendship between a man and a woman is often spoken of in a negative way. Arthur Conan Doyle wrote: “Friendship between a man and a woman does no honor to a man and deprives a woman of honor.” Therefore, do everything possible to get your spouse to gently shift his attention from his friend to you. Give him pleasant impressions, remember joyful moments of the past, but don’t nag about correspondence with your girlfriend. Then the threat to your marriage will gradually evaporate on its own, since your husband will have no time for it.
- Flirting and finding a lover. Well, the most unfavorable reason for a man to correspond with other women is flirting and communication in order to start an affair. Most likely, for him, your relationship has outlived its usefulness. The husband does not receive the return, warmth, intimacy to the required extent, or the feelings are simply gone. If this is true, then the spouse will hide his sins more carefully. He will increasingly lock himself in the bathroom for a long time or quickly hang up when you enter the room. It is almost impossible not to notice a change in your spouse’s behavior. If you want to save your marriage, you cannot sit back and ignore the signs of impending betrayal.
Having found out for sure that your husband is communicating with another woman, you need to draw conclusions and think through a plan of action. To ignore the situation means to give the go-ahead for further conversations with the girl. How should a wise wife behave? We will help you resolve the situation.
What not to do
In such a situation, you can make mistakes that you will greatly regret later. So no matter how much you want to, avoid the following actions:
- Cheating out of revenge on your husband - after discovering betrayal, you may have a desire to do the same. But if you didn’t have such thoughts before, it means that you are actually resentful. Over time, the emotions will pass, and you will be ashamed of your actions.
- When writing to your rival , don’t write nasty things, don’t call for conscience, don’t beg her to leave her husband. The problem is not with the stranger, but with your husband. Even if she stops communicating, he can find someone else.
- Humiliate yourself - in such a situation, there is no need to beg your husband to stop communicating by promising some benefits or humiliating yourself in any other way. If you show that you will do anything to save the marriage, he will simply sit on your neck.
- Hysteria and scandal are an unpleasant situation, the man made a terrible mistake and you have the right to be angry. But there is no need to make a scene, scream until you lose your voice and throw objects. Nobody likes hysterics, and perhaps it was precisely this behavior that led the husband to correspond with another. First calm down, then start a dialogue. Only in such a situation can you achieve something.
- Threatening suicide - you cannot keep another person by blackmail; rather, such phrases will push him away from you even more.
A family cannot be saved by fear and pity.
Where can a husband correspond?
Often, if there is a suspicion that a husband is corresponding with someone else, the question arises: where can he do this? In fact, anywhere. Maybe he registered on a special dating site, or does it on social networks. In any case, even if you go to his page, you may not find anything. This is easily explained, because he could have deleted the correspondence. Well, regarding dating sites, it can clear your browser history. So everything is not always simple and obvious. One possible way is to simply catch him if you suspect that he is communicating with someone.
What to do if nothing helps
In some situations, a man cannot be changed. He doesn’t see any problems in his behavior, he doesn’t care about his wife’s feelings, it’s more important for him to get pleasant emotions from communicating with strangers online. This can't be fixed.
You will have to find a way out of this situation on your own, and there are not many options.
come to terms
If you are not ready to destroy your family because of your husband’s virtual affair, you need to accept the situation as it is and come to terms with it. In the end, he sits at home, doesn’t spend family money on mistresses, doesn’t get infected with anything and, by and large, just corresponds on the Internet. Many women don’t even see a problem in this situation.
Don't think about it and sleep peacefully.
It is worth understanding that having come to terms with your husband’s action, you need to completely let go of the situation:
- do not look through correspondence, do not read SMS, do not try to find out details;
- forgive your husband, don’t nag about this situation, don’t reproach, but simply ignore, as if it didn’t happen;
- don’t overthink yourself, don’t invent unnecessary things and don’t be jealous, take care of your nerves.
Learn to treat your husband's virtual hobbies as an unpleasant habit. Someone smokes, someone plays tanks, and yours communicates on the Internet. Just believe in your man - he promised that nothing would go beyond correspondence, so it is so. And regular messaging never hurt anyone.
Psychologist's advice
If you cannot convey your feelings to your spouse on your own, the only thing left to do is go to family counseling. Advice from psychologists, looking at the situation from the outside, discussing hidden motives for cheating in the presence of a professional can move the situation forward.
Perhaps the husband will trust a male psychologist more.
Most likely, the spouse will not want to voluntarily go to counseling, because he does not see the problem. Then you will have to make a choice - either a psychologist or a divorce. You do not intend to tolerate such behavior, and are ready for any solution to the problem.
If he wants to save his family, he will agree. And if not, then there is nothing to hold on to.
Breake down
In severe cases, the only correct solution is to break off the relationship. It’s worth deciding on this if:
- the spouse refuses to acknowledge the problem, does not want to go to a psychologist and does not try to save the relationship;
- if the correspondence indicates not only flirting, but also virtual sex, the exchange of intimate photographs, details about real meetings in the past;
- For you, such behavior of your husband is unacceptable and you cannot forgive him for his betrayal, then there is no point in maintaining the relationship.
Before deciding to divorce, make sure that you have tried all the methods, including the help of a psychologist. Sometimes a couple cannot agree on their own, and they need an outside perspective.
If nothing helps, should you accept it or call it a day?
You have already done everything you can: you talked, you corrected your behavior, you showered us with compliments, you baked pies, but for some reason your husband is still talking to someone else! Falling into despair is a natural reaction in such a situation, but you can act differently and consciously approach the solution to the problem. Your psychological comfort is most important, so choose one of the following options that is closer to you:
- Humble yourself. There is no need to create a tragedy if the pen pal is really her husband’s friend. If they have many common interests, the same company (for example, they previously studied together or work in the same office), then there is nothing wrong with their periodic communication within reason. Close your eyes to this, and best of all, get to know your man’s girlfriend. It is possible that she will seem like a darling to you, and the three of you will become friends, and suspicions about the high level of romanticism in the correspondence between the husband and this girl will dissipate.
- Break up. It is impossible to constantly forgive someone who does not strive to improve. Do not be humiliated if your husband constantly flirts with other women, and even cheats. This behavior is unacceptable in marriage, so it is better to break up and look for a more reliable man. Don't look for an excuse for your cheating husband. Responsibility for such an ugly act lies solely with him.
- Contact a family psychologist. Can't decide which path to choose? Then you need a judge in the person of a family psychologist. It will be great if you manage to drag your overly sociable spouse into his office. When your husband is texting another lady, and you cannot come to terms with it, the advice of a psychologist will become a balm for your soul. Together you will find the best way out of the situation. Individual work with a specialist brings truly impressive results, no doubt about it.
Communication between a husband and another girl is unpleasant for the wife under any circumstances, and this is completely normal. Healthy jealousy is completely acceptable in marriage, it cannot be otherwise. Put your energy to work: don’t worry in vain, but you yourself will become more interesting, well-groomed and calm. Then you will become the object of admiration for many men, and your spouse will have to fight you off from gentlemen, so he simply will not have time left for correspondence with other ladies.
When a guy texts another girl
The situation with young couples has its own nuances that are worth considering separately. After all, the relationship began quite recently, it should not yet have routine, fatigue, or a pile of accumulated problems. So why does a young man need to communicate on the side?
- Simple communication . Among young people, communication with the opposite sex can be truly friendly. Many people make friends and girlfriends with whom they communicate in a large company. They can simply exchange funny pictures, gossip about mutual friends, discuss going to a new place, and so on. No romantic inclinations or flirting. In such a situation, there is no need to be nervous and worry, because having friends is normal.
- Search for other options . In the first weeks and even months, the couple only takes a closer look and gets used to each other. They seem to be together, but at the same time they are afraid of missing out on something better. In such a situation, a young man can communicate with other ladies, flirt with them, hint at relationships, so that in case of a more winning game he will switch there. Such behavior is a betrayal, and it is not discussed.
- Search for new sensations - if at the beginning of your relationship you already need to dispel the routine, then something is wrong in them. You cannot build a future with such a foundation, because even before the everyday routine, monotony and addiction, your passion has faded. What will happen next?
So if a guy is texting another girl, the psychologist’s answer will be unequivocal - break up. Unless, of course, this is friendly communication. In a long-term marriage, such a situation can signal accumulated problems, routine and fading feelings. For the sake of preserving the family, you can try to restore the relationship.
The relationship has just begun, and there is already a chasm between them.
But at the beginning of a relationship there should not be such problems. If now, even before marriage, he is already flirting online with others, what will happen next? Having become a husband, such people will not limit themselves to simple correspondence and will go further. After all, the feeling of dissatisfaction will only grow.
What's wrong in a relationship if a guy is texting another girl? The psychologist's answer may surprise you. In a budding relationship, the problem usually lies not in the girl, but in the boy himself:
- unpreparedness for a serious relationship;
- reluctance to limit yourself to just one;
- desire to assert oneself;
- loves attention to his person;
- keeps another in reserve;
- I don't think it could hurt the girl.
In any case, you should have an honest conversation with the guy. Find out the real reason, communicate your feelings, ask them to stop this behavior. Based on his reaction and the reasons stated, you can understand whether you have a chance for the future.
Is it worth checking your phone?
Every woman asks herself this sensitive question: is it worth checking her partner’s phone? The telephone is the personal space of every person, therefore, in order to get into it, you must be sure of your spouse’s infidelity. You can only read other people's messages to confirm your suspicions.
—>
Advice from a psychologist. Unless absolutely necessary, it is better not to touch your husband’s phone. He might catch you and it will make you look bad.
Ordinary correspondence with a girl cannot be considered cheating if things have not progressed to serious action. In most cases, this is just harmless flirting for fun or out of boredom. Trust your husband and be happy!

Women's opinion
Here's what female representatives say about this:
Ekaterina (35 years old): “I think that all men can sometimes indulge in some kind of flirting, just to assert themselves. Therefore, when I found my husband’s correspondence with someone else, I was not at all surprised. He wants to feel attractive to women. He stays at home, I don’t mind.”
Natalya (25 years old): “My husband constantly corresponds with other women and lies to me, so we often have scandals on this basis. It calms down for a while, but then everything repeats itself again. I no longer believe that anything can change for the better. Maybe I don’t want anything anymore.”
Anastasia (39 years old): “I didn’t find such correspondence with my husband, but I think that he corresponds with other women who has too much free time. This will lead to intimacy. I could not tolerate such behavior!”
Many relationships begin with correspondence on the Internet.
Anna (21 years old): “I’m in love and I think if I read the guy’s correspondence with someone else, I would break up. That means he doesn't like it. And there’s no reason to continue living together.”
Angelina (19 years old): “My relationship with my boyfriend began with correspondence, and he was still dating his ex. So I know where this can lead, and I forbid him to communicate with others.”
Oksana (33 years old): “When I realized that my husband was cheating on me, I didn’t ask him anything, since I was at home on maternity leave to care for a child. I felt very bad and hard, but I didn’t want to make the situation worse. The husband behaved as usual at home. When the child grew up, I began to pay more attention to my husband and my appearance, and went in for sports so that he understood what he could lose. Gradually, the husband began to be at home more often, perhaps leaving his hobby in the past. Now ours have improved, but I haven’t forgotten.”
Katya (28 years old): “I sometimes communicate with my ex-boyfriends, but nothing serious, we broke up a long time ago. It’s just interesting to remember and talk. Therefore, I don’t mind if my boyfriend is interested in the future fate of his ex, there’s nothing wrong with that.”
Women assess this situation ambiguously; all opinions are subjective.
Why does a husband correspond with someone else: reasons
It is difficult to say unequivocally why a husband corresponds with another woman. To answer this question, it is better to divide men into several groups.
Why does the husband communicate with another?
- Random visitors
The man saw an interesting photo on the Internet and clicked on it, and then went to a dating site. He decided to look at a couple more photos, but had to register. It is very fast and now he is already a full user. He tried to communicate or someone wrote to him. The conversations are simple and non-binding. And now he already spends his evenings in this way.
There may be nothing wrong with this, but still the risk is huge. Often, if a wife does not pay enough attention to her husband, he can make acquaintance with someone who will be his outlet. Ultimately he may want to meet her and cheat on her.
So always be attentive to your husband, be a friend to him so that he does not have to look for anyone on the side.
- Overcoming complexes
When something goes wrong in a man's life, he may feel like a failure. He wants to be admired and praised, but you don't, even if he really tries. You constantly don’t like something about him, because other wives have better things. And now he has complexes. As a result, he goes to look for the one who will consider him a hero.
On a dating site, he will definitely find someone who will admire him and his self-esteem will increase, but your importance will decrease too much. So don't forget to praise him, even if you don't think it's necessary. Don’t nag your husband, but rather support him once again.
- Discord in relationships
When a man has problems with his wife, he can really look for new acquaintances. For example, he is very offended or the relationship has cooled down. As a rule, his registration on dating sites already indicates his readiness for divorce. Basically, the search for a replacement lasts a long time, and he stops communicating at the first hint of a meeting. But this does not mean that it will always be like this. He can find a good girl with whom he decides to meet and, as a result, cheat. So in any conflict, try to look for reasons and if you are really wrong, then admit your guilt. Try to make peace quickly and do not prolong the conflict.
- Lots of free time
Often married men go to dating sites simply out of idleness. For them it is a game, and a very simple one at that. They can communicate in any situation, and such a game can lead to him forgetting about his family responsibilities if an interesting and beautiful girl meets him on the way. In such a situation, he can really make a difference.
To prevent this from happening, deprive him of free time. Ask to do homework with your child, go to the store, or do household chores. Finally, find something fun to do on the computer or a part-time job together. Let him direct the unspent energy in another direction.
- Habit of making acquaintances
If you and your husband met previously on the Internet, then there is nothing to be surprised that he communicates on different sites. It happens that men do not stop at relationships with one even in marriage. He still continues to flirt with others. This indicates that he is still undecided. Since you are married, try to solve this problem together.
There should be no scandals on your part. Show him that there is no one better than you, but do not humiliate yourself and do not follow him. Just try to occupy his time, but don't lock him at home.
