What Does Your Body Language Says? A Complete Guide

At least one in four couples don't know the answers to the question What does your body language say? In a recent survey, almost a third of all marriages admitted to admitting infidelity" on a regular basis, and some women admit to cheating even though they think they are "faithful."

The first step to telling if you are being unfaithful is to look at what your body language says. This is more than an instinctive response that tells you if your spouse is cheating on you. Your body language reveals how you feel when they aren't around, or your relationship may be over.

When your husband is working late, you should ask him if he's going to be home for dinner. If he is, find another partner. But if he is at home, he is doing something you know he wants to do, but it is likely that he doesn't want to talk about it with you.

Check out his body language and observe his behavior. You can determine his mood by what he is doing and if he is checking in on the television or talking on the phone.
He always seems to be reading or taking notes, which is a sign that he isn't comfortable sharing his feelings or he is not ready to be open book. It could also mean that he has something else to be checking in on. If he is physically active, he probably wants to discuss a project he is working on.

Another way to tell if your husband is cheating is to look at his body language when he is with someone else. If he seems uncomfortable when she is around, she is there for only a short period of time and she leaves before you have the chance to say goodbye, she is likely still being watched. They have been involved in an affair and now that they are being monitored they feel threatened.

If your marriage progresses to the point where the affair is revealed, it may be that it was an opportunity for the other person to see if you really are the person they married. If you aren't, it shows they will be willing to go down that road again because they were attracted to someone who doesn't match their standards.

If you notice that your husband is paying attention to what your body language says, you might have better luck getting him to open up if you begin to look for areas of conflict or insecurity. A physically active husband might also feel insecure, so begin to notice the things he has to do that involve strenuous physical activity.

Does your husband's body language indicate a tense and worried mood? Find areas of communication and work on communicating his feelings as well as yours. Your body language can also tell whether your husband is uncomfortable with intimacy, his behavior and actions may suggest he doesn't want to be intimate with you, or he hasn't found the right words to express his emotions. If you think your husband is doing these things then he may be cheating on you.

Even if you can't figure out exactly what your husband is up to, you can still learn a lot about what he is saying through his body language. As you read what he is doing, try to pay attention to his facial expressions, and how he is walking or sitting, this way you can decipher the signs that he is having trouble expressing himself.

While reading your spouse's body language can be helpful, it is also important to keep in mind that a cheating spouse may lie about it to cover up their own behavior. So, in addition to asking "What does your body language say?"
