Trust is the cornerstone of a monogamous relationship, and nothing hurts quite like discovering that your partner has been unfaithful.
It’s not easy to keep such a big secret, and sooner or later, these things have a way of surfacing. And when they do, it can be quite a mess.
Several people came forward on the internet when asked about their experiences, and here’s the tea on the most unbelievable ways they caught a cheating partner.

My colleague married a guy she'd been with for years. She found out shortly afterwards he'd been cheating because they met this girl (who was his colleague and gym buddy) when they were walking in the park, and their two French bulldogs (who were noisy and protective) didn't bark at her at all. There was no reason for this woman to have met the dogs before, as she had never been to their house, to her knowledge. So, she snooped on his phone while he was asleep, and apparently, he had been cheating for over a year, and she was pregnant, and they were opening a business together, and he was leaving as soon as he had the whole thing set up. When the dust settled, the only thing she was pissed off about was the expense they and her parents had spent on the wedding. He could have called the whole thing off and saved thousands.

It's no one’s fault but yours if you cheat on your partner, no matter what kind of a person they are or what kind of a relationship you are in.
If you’re unhappy in your relationship or marriage, no one forces you to stay with that person and most of us have a choice to walk out.
Even if your partner is emotionally or physically abusive, if you have the courage to cheat on them, you should also have the courage to end the relationship.
You can always date and get involved with someone else once you call things off with your current partner.
Because at the end of the day, there is really no excuse to hurt someone who trusts you.

Not me but my dad. His girlfriend at the time had been cheating on him with his friend, who didn’t know they were in a relationship. My dad found out when his friend told him he was gonna propose to her.

My fire alarm woke me up when it was low on batteries at 5am and thought it was strange that my gf wasnt home yet(she was out drinking with her friend).
I tried to call her, but she didnt answer. Thats when i remembered that we had the friends spare key. She lived like next house so i went to check and my gf was sleeping in her friends bed with some guy.
If the fire alarm didnt woke me i think i wouldnt have ever known.

Was married; it happened a week or so after my two week’s R&R (Was in the middle of a twelve month deployment to Iraq). Long story short, I hadn’t cheated on her, but I sure as hell got diagnosed with a STD a week or so after I returned back to Iraq.
We finalized our divorce a couple of months later while I was still deployed.

We broke up and then her best friend and best friend's husband told me that night. She had been sleeping with a few different people but settled on one. They got married, had kids, then she cheated on him with me one night years later (I didn't know they were together). They divorced, she remarried, got divorced, and now she is on husband number three. My favorite part is she portrays herself as an amazing christian woman that is better than everyone because she is so christian.

I was living in a small town of about 3000 people. There was a shooting in a house that was right next to my girlfriend’s house. Gunshots, lights and sirens, cops all over at 3:00 AM. They interviewed all of the neighbors.
I asked her about it the next day and she had no idea what I was talking about.
Because she wasn’t there. She admitted why later that afternoon.

I had a long day at work and went to meet my husband at a bar for one drink at closing time. He had recently put a bunch of his paintings on display there. When I arrived at the bar he was drinking in a booth with two women, one young and one old. I walked over, took a big drink of his beer, introduced myself as his wife and thanked them for coming to his art show. Cue looks of shock and confusion. It turn out he was on a date with his girlfriend and was meeting her mom for the first time. In hindsight I find it hilarious, but I can’t get the look the mom gave me out of my head. A perfect mixture of shock and curiosity, with a little bit of disgust; she realized before I did what was going on.

Wife (soon to be ex) was in rehab and started sleeping with someone. She got out and told me she was going to a meeting. Suddenly, I remembered I could track her car cause I pay for the Lexus Enform app. She was at a hotel.
I guess I need to write a book.

Met a girl through work (not a coworker), got her number, and when we first talked she said she just went through a breakup and didn’t want to jump into anything. So I played it cool. After a few weeks we started hanging out and hooking up every day. I really liked her and our connection was great. After 8 months I was like okay, this is a thing. I was on vacation, we were talking on the phone, and the idea of us still being “just friends” was naturally brought up by her in a teasing way, like her saying “come on, we’re more than that.” I told her with a smile on my face that we should talk about that when I get home. Then she went quiet. Hardly answered my texts the rest of my trip. Gave no explanation, didn’t wanna hang out when I got back. I was SO confused. I don’t have social media, but in my desperate confusion I made a Facebook in 5 minutes and looked her up. She had never broken up with the previous guy. She lived with him. Cheated on both of us for 8 months straight.

Had one of those “catching up” phone calls with a girl I used to be good friends with. Told her all about my girlfriend during the conversation. The next day, I’m supposed to see my girlfriend and she cancels on me. No big deal. A couple hours later my old friend starts texting me asking me questions about my girlfriend. She ends up telling me she’s pretty sure my girlfriend is in the back seat of a car with her and that my girls been all over her boyfriends brother and they’re all on their way to the movies now. I try calling her and texting to confront her. She calls me back and breaks up with me. The cherry on top is my girlfriend and I work together, and the guy she’s cheating with is my manager. She ends up quitting not long after but I have to work with this guy for another year before I change jobs lol.

He told on himself. He randomly called me saying why I messaged his ex and I was super confused because I never did and told him it’s a misunderstanding I can reach out to her to explain it’s not me. He got SUPER defensive & threatened if I reached out to her we’re done. I found it odd & reached out to clear my name & she spilled saying he’s been cheating on me as well as playing her & multiple other girls all at the same time. Turns out one of the girls made a fake account of me & reached out to her. Never found out who it was but this is the one time I’m glad having a stalker worked in my favor otherwise I would’ve never known haha.

Came home off a deployment. Now (ex)Wife was acting really weird but I figured it was because I had been gone for a year and everything was just taking time to get reaquainted.
About 3 days after I returned I had a notice from my unit stating my vehicle had 3 tickets at another base (we were in Germany) a few hours away in the past few months.
When I went in to find out what the deal was all 3 had photos attached to them for speeding through a checkpoint.
All 3 had my wife and some other guy. She was kissing him in the 3rd pic..he was driving my car.

Woke up on Christmas morning and her neck was covered in hickies that I most definitely did not leave. That was shortly followed by logging on to fb, only to find that the new girl (barely more than half my age, but over 18) had posted a ton of pics of the two of them snuggling and making out and *she had tagged my ex*. So all our mutual friends found out I’d been cheated on at basically the same time. Merry Christmas to me.

One of the guys he was trying to cheat with found me on Instagram and said “hey your bf keeps hitting on me but you’re way cuter” and gave me his phone number. Did some digging and discovered he was on multiple dating apps, saw the messages.
