Is He Cheating or Am I Paranoid Quiz

Getting cheated on is a big fear in a relationship, understandably so. Sometimes, however, it can be hard to figure out if your fears are founded or if you just see things that aren't there. 

A good relationship requires trust, but what if there is a good reason you can't trust him?
So, how can you tell if he is cheating?

Take this short "Is he cheating or Am I Paranoid?" quiz to determine whether your suspicions are founded.

Remember, though, that no matter what, you should always be as direct as possible and discuss any concerns with your partner to maintain a healthy relationship.
