16 Signs Two People Are Secretly Hooking Up

Maybe you’re worried that your partner is cheating. Or maybe you’re suspicious about two coworkers who seem to like each other. Either way, here are some signs two people are secretly hooking up:

“When your SO brings someone up way too much in the beginning, then mysteriously stops talking about them at all, even when the situation potentially calls for it.” — Glassmoon0fo

“They start using each other’s speech mannerisms. Like one of them always replies to something you say to them with, ‘Is that right?’ and then you hear your wife saying it all the time after you get back from a week long work trip.” — Alaska_Roy

“Physical closeness. Princess Margaret was (accurately) accused of having an affair after wiping some fluff/dust off of a married man’s suit jacket.” — Solidus27

“They make sure they don’t leave a place together but linger around long enough to know when the other is leaving. They look at each other when something funny or bad happens.” — Acrobatic-Report958

“Their orbits are smaller around each other. Without meaning to, they will change their personal space requirements with the other. They’ll think they’re normal distance away, but won’t be. Also, they’ll move around each other too easily (like in small spaces) without the awkward missteps the rest of us make.” — Stmpnksarwall

“I’ve caught people because they didn’t follow one another on social media to try to avoid suspicion, but they both posted that they were at the same place and similar photos, and despite not posting about one another, it was obvious. They didn’t know what the other was posting because they didn’t follow one another lmfao which ultimately lead to the downfall of their discretion.” — tabruss

“One of them starts showing up to group hangouts way overdressed. It’s for whoever they are banging.” — Jenova66

“They get awkward if you come up to them when they are together. I just want coffee and you’re standing in front of the machine and I didn’t think anything was going on until you got all awkward. You’re allowed to be friends and stand here and talk.” — royal_rose_

“Carpooling when there is not much convenience to it because they don’t live all that close to each other.” — EatinSumGrapes

“If they’re sitting closer together to each other than everyone else at a table.” — BrrToe

“Disappearing at the same time. Taking off site lunch at the same time.” — RhodiumPl8ed

“The two of them consistently being the last ones left at the group hangout, especially if one of them is hosting.” — EatinSumGrapes

“Pay attention to who they look at when they laugh. It may not reveal a sexual relationship necessarily, but it’s such an innocent act that at the very least reveals that they want to ensure they are connected it that moment.” — ChoppyChug

“They act weird all of a sudden when things that should be considered normal happen. Like friends acting playful but they suddenly stop (because they realize it might be taken the wrong way) when in reality it wouldn’t they are only fearing such as they know things are indeed the wrong way.” — Otfd

“They stop saying thank you to each other. Got caught out myself with that.” — summer_mama

“From personal experience – was hooking up with a coworker and she’d bring her dog into the office. Her dog started sitting under my desk everyday and we were exposed.” — chipdoyle
