2. 36 percent of those in a relationship have lied about a financial matter to a partner.
3. Younger adults who are not married age 18 to 54, tend to be victims of financial unfaithfulness.
4. Women and men are equally likely to fall victims of financial infidelity.
Some red flags to look for if you suspect financial infidelity;
1. Regular cash withdrawals.
2. Purchases and expenses that can’t be explained.
3. An obvious change in behavior and attitude towards money and possible you.
4. Spending habits change, maybe spending more money on themselves and/or others.
5. Change in mail, perhaps are the bills come electronically and are never mentioned.
6. You don’t see mail from your regular financial institutions.
7. Your partner is always the first to get the mail and seems concerned with making sure they get it.
I think its important to keep a healthy dialogue in a relationship. There are some things you can also do to protect yourself;
1. Talk to your partner regularly about money. It doesn’t have to be for a long-time but a weekly or bi-weekly touch base.
