HOW TO CATCH A CHEATER

你的合夥人有外遇嗎？如何有效地抓住作弊者。

How To Catch A Cheater - There are worrying signs of a new puritanism creeping into relations between the genders. Significant numbers of heterosexual Americans regard eating lunch, driving in a car, or even having work meetings alone with someone of the opposite sex as sexually risky behaviour.

And now, the internet is awash with warnings about a new way to be unfaithful without even knowing it. Called “micro-cheating”, it is infidelity for the digital age, meaning it does not involve the exchange of bodily fluids, knowing glances, or any form of physical contact.

Instead, it involves such apparently licentious practices as liking your ex’s six-month-old Instagram post or sending them “romantically-charged” emojis (step forward, you wanton, scarlet dancing lady).

According to Google Trends, the term first emerged in 2004, but it really only exploded into the public consciousness in the first week of 2018.

The signs include having inside jokes with people other than your significant other or sending them a “nice to meet you” message “unnecessarily”. Over- and under-mentioning a person of potential sexual interest to your partner are signs of either micro-cheating, or compensating for your micro-cheating. Yes, it is a quagmire.

Micro-cheating is a “grey area which falls between flirting and unfaithful behaviour, with examples including the use of romantically charged emojis in a communication with someone outside of your relationship or having a secretive online conversation online with them.
