Cheaters aren’t always caught immediately, but the truth has an amazing way of coming out. If someone betrays their partner, eventually, karma will come for them. And it might even result in them being called out on the internet!

One woman recently went viral after sharing a TikTok that pointed out the subtle evidence that she found proving that her boyfriend was cheating. Below, you’ll find the video that Joie posted, as well as some of the replies viewers left her.

    Over one fifth of men admit that they’ve cheated in a relationship or marriage

    If you’re not familiar with the “evidence” shown in this video, it’s a mark left on the mirror from an Octobuddy phone case. These cases are covered in small suction cups, allowing users to attach their phones to various surfaces in order to film videos or take photos without having to hold onto their phone or prop it up. And it seems like Joie either doesn’t have that phone case or has never attached her phone to that mirror, so she realized that someone else must have been sitting there…

    Most people would probably like to believe that they would never cheat on their partner. At the same time, we tell ourselves that our partners would never cheat on us. After all, if someone loves you, how could they betray you like that? Unfortunately, infidelity is likely more common than you even realize.

    According to a survey conducted by the Institute for Family Studies, one fifth of married men and 13% of married women admit that they’ve slept with someone who isn’t their spouse after tying the knot. And apparently, you can’t even trust the profiles that you find on dating apps, as one study found that a whopping 18% to 25% of Tinder users are already in relationships when they begin using the app.

    People are also slightly more likely to cheat when they’re simply dating and not married. A study by the Kinsey Institute found that 23% of men and 19% of women have cheated while in relationships. But these statistics beg the question: why are so many people comfortable betraying their partners? 

    Of course, there are a variety of factors that come into play when someone decides to cheat. But Verywell Mind notes that certain risk factors may make a person more likely to be unfaithful.

    These include struggling with ad**ction or substance ab*se, having an insecure attachment style, having experienced trauma during childhood or being exposed to infidelity at a young age. Certain mental illnesses can also make people more prone to cheating, as well as having cheated in past relationships or having psychological issues, such as narcissistic traits or personality disorders.

    There can also be risk factors within a relationship that will make one or both partners more likely to cheat. These include domestic violence or emotional ab*se, emotional or physical disconnect, financial pressure, lack of communication, lack of respect or low compatibility. 

    If someone feels underappreciated, unhappy, dissatisfied and bored in their relationship, they might seek out comfort elsewhere. But I’m sure we all know that cheating isn’t the way to fix a relationship. If it leads to the end of a relationship, it will be much more painful than if it had ended respectfully and mutually. And if the couple managed to move past the infidelity, it will be extremely difficult for their relationship to ever be the same.

    It’s estimated that up to 40% of couples who have experienced infidelity break up, and that’s not surprising when you understand how being cheated on can impact a person. Marriage.com notes that it’s common to go through the stages of grief upon learning that you’ve been cheated on. It can turn a person’s world upside down in an instant. 

    Following the infidelity, it can be very challenging to ever trust again. Meanwhile, cheating can cause a serious blow to the self-esteem of the person who was betrayed. They’ll often begin to wonder if there’s anything they did to cause the cheating or why their partner decided to look elsewhere for affection in the first place.

    Unfortunately, these thoughts are sometimes accompanied by a stress disorder, as one study found that between 30% to 60% of people who were cheated on develop PTSD symptoms. Sadly, this experience can also sometimes trigger depression in certain individuals. 

    While we can understand the reasoning behind cheating, that doesn’t mean that betraying a partner like this is justifiable. We would love to hear your thoughts on this situation in the comments below, pandas. Do you think this woman made the right move by calling out her boyfriend online?

    Howdy, I'm Adelaide! I'm originally from Texas, but after graduating from university with an acting degree, I relocated to sunny Los Angeles for a while. I then got a serious bite from the travel bug and found myself moving to Sweden and England before settling in Lithuania about three years ago. I'm passionate about animal welfare, sustainability and eating delicious food. But as you can see, I cover a wide range of topics including drama, internet trends and hilarious memes. I can easily be won over with a Seinfeld reference, vegan pastry or glass of fresh cold brew. And during my free time, I can usually be seen strolling through a park, playing tennis or baking something tasty.

    Was hoping there would be a phone case marking explanation - but can't be bothered with it now.

    Never cheated, never will. Finish one relationship before you move on to the next, and remember that the grass is often greener because it's covered in manure.
