If you search online for "suspicious signs of a cheating partner," "your partner's phone is always on silent during dates!" will definitely be on the list, and likely near the top. But is the relationship between "your partner cheating" and "their phone being on silent" really that straightforward and simple?
While some philandering men do indeed silence their phones on dates to conceal their affairs and avoid being exposed, believing this will fool everyone, some men are innocent. They silence their phones on dates not to hide anything, but simply to focus on the date.
Therefore, we can categorize the possible motivations behind "the other person's phone is always on silent during the date!" into the following types:
1. Due to the nature of their work, mobile phones are usually kept on silent. Some professions, such as broadcasting, television, libraries, healthcare, and education, typically keep their phones on silent during work hours. Sometimes, when going out after get off work for a date, they might forget to switch back to silent mode, which isn't a big deal.
2. Simply not wanting to be disturbed, like turning off your phone on a date when watching a movie or enjoying an art performance, is just basic politeness.
3. There is no suspicion of cheating, but I am afraid that the other person will overthink and become overly suspicious, so I simply put my phone on silent before the date to avoid misunderstandings and having to explain myself.
4. She did have other romantic relationships, and Guan Jingyin deliberately avoided their questions to prevent them from finding out.
As for your lover, which category does she fall into?
If you find that after dating him for more than six months, his phone has never rung, or it's always vibrating in his pocket or bag, what should you do?
Many relationship experts usually advise you to observe more closely. I'm a bit more straightforward; I believe that if two people love each other enough and want to continue their relationship, they should find an appropriate time to directly ask the other person. If he avoids the topic and refuses to address it, and is unwilling to switch back to the normal ringing mode, you already know the answer.
