What is micro-change and how to understand that you have become a victim of it

On the one hand, modern relations have become easier. Before getting to know a woman, once you had to drive a hundred miles through the mud and then be rejected at a ball. And now it's enough to go to a dating site and be rejected without getting off the couch!

On the other hand, the relationship has become more complicated: in particular, there are more varieties of infidelity. So, we have already talked about a completely new kind of betrayal, which could not have been imagined some twenty years ago. Well, besides, micro-changes have appeared.

Australian psychologist Melanie Schilling told the Daily Mail in an interview about what micro-change is, how to understand that you have become a victim of it or are micro-changing yourself.

"Behavior can be considered a micro—change," Melanie began, "if you communicate with someone on social networks secretly from your partner. If you have your own jokes with this person, only you can understand. If you deliberately belittle the importance of this relationship when you do tell your partner about it."

Yes, alas. What you thought was an innocent correspondence with Angela, with whom you once sat at the same desk in the third grade, is actually treason.

In fact, cheating is all that you seek to hide from your partner. By the way, if your partner hides her phone or closes her laptop when you approach, she may be micro-altering. Well, or he's looking for a surprise gift for you, a paranoid person.
