EX marks the spot...

BODY LANGUAGE EXPERT REVEALS SEVEN SIGNS THAT COULD MEAN YOUR PARTNER IS NOT BEING FAITHFUL

- By LUCY MARSHALL and CAMERON HENDERSON

A HUDDERSFIE­LD love expert has revealed the signs that show a partner is still in love with their ex.

Body language adviser Inbaal Honigman said changes in eye contact or their tone of voice are both giveaways there is more to your partner and their ex’s relationsh­ip than meets the eye.

The Holmfirth resident said a forced smile, or defensive language may be a tell tale sign that a partner is not being truthful.

Inbaal said: “It’s important to stress that most people are happy in their relationsh­ips and remain faithful.

“But if you’re concerned something is amiss, these are the signs that could suggest not everything is as it seems.”

She added: “If they make regular eye contact, that is not a worry. But if they are doing things without eye contact, that is a huge red flag.”

Inbaal said if someone is cheating on you, the way they and the mistress look at each other, or don’t look at each other, might be a giveaway. She said: “Eye contact has lots of different ways that it can manifest. Very intense prolonged eye contact can indicate an attempt to feign sincerity. It usually misses the mark though because it’s appears too polished to be realistic.”

Inbaal said to be “wary” when hanging out with a partner’s ex and watch how they hold hands.

She said: “There are different types of hand holding. When you are helping someone cross a road, you may hold their hand with your fingers closed. This is just helpful.”

She added: “But if your partner is lacing their hand together with another person – like we often see with Harry and Meghan – that suggests they are very close.”

Inbaal also said the tone of voice used when discussing an ex may be a secret clue. She said: “If the ex comes up in conversati­on, the cheating partner will talk slower or pause more frequently to make sure they are not giving anything away.”

Inbaal said if you decided to confront your partner about their ex, their tone of voice may be a giveaway and your partner’s body language may also hint that skuldugger­y is afoot.

Inbaal said: “When someone is called out and they have something to hide, they will jump into defensive mode immediatel­y.

“They will stand fully upright because they are stressed.”

On the flipside, if your partner is telling the truth about their ex, their body language may also provide some reassuranc­e.

Inbaal said: “If they are accused and haven’t done anything, they would sit next to you, listen to the accusation and take a minute trying to decipher where the worry has come from.”
