Could a small scratch on your husband's ear - behind the ear lobe - mean he cheated? I just noticed it today.

He was not clean shaven. He had stubble on his cheeks. So it could not be a razor cut.

Should I confront him or leave it be?

No. It doesn't automatically mean that he's cheating. Your instant mistrust says much more than a small scratch!

Youcannotbeserious agony auntBlimey, if I was cheating every time I got a fresh scratch or cut, there would not be enough hours in the day for me to have that many encounters!

I have scratched myself, with my own nails, accidentally on a number of occasions, or caught myself with something (brambles, barbed wire) or been scratched by animals (mainly cats and rabbits) or children. I honestly cannot remember a single scratch sustained as a result of having sex.

Why don't you simply say to your husband, "Ooh, you have a scratch behind your ear. What happened?"

You must be a very paranoid person if a possible affair is the conclusion you draw from a scratch on the earlobe. ANYTHING could have caused it!

Honeypie agony auntWhat else makes you think he is cheating - besides the little scratch?

What exactly made you think scratch = cheating?

For most people that would NOT be the first conclusion to come up with IMHO.

Here in the North, it's mosquito season they are VICIOUS this time of year and I have more bits and scratches than usual because I also have adverse reactions to them.

Does he wear glasses? Sunglasses? Maybe they irritated him and he scratched his earlobe?

I think it's IMPOSSIBLE to say that he MUST have cheated because he has a scratch on his ear.

So, I have to ask why the mistrust?
