Online affairs are contributing to the high divorce rate in America, as the Internet ties with the workplace as the #1 place to cheat on your spouse. Thankfully,
computer monitoring software can supply answers to those spouses who suspect that their marriage is in danger.
Christmas time and the holiday season are seen by many marriage experts as a dangerous time for those who fear that their spouse is cheating. Christmas parties, hectic schedules, and alcohol all play a role, but more and more, Internet addiction is involved as well. According to a recent survey of over 350 divorce attorneys, spouses who get "hooked" on Internet porn and cybersex are a fast growing complaint from those seeking to end their marriage.

The workplace and the Internet are the #1 places to cheat on a spouse?

Internet infidelity itself has garnered much attention recently, since divorce magazines and websites publicized the fact that online affairs contribute to as much as a third of all divorce litigation in this country.
But psychiatrists who treat this kind of behavior believe that Internet infidelity is just one facet of Internet addiction, in which all real-life relationships are skewed by a kind of cyber fantasy world.
This kind of addiction is quickly leading to the breakdown of healthy, real-life relationships – much like other more accepted addictions do. And it even contributes to health problems, including carpel tunnel syndrom, higher incidences of obesity, sleep deprivation, and more.
Internet addicts may also have a history of other forms of addiction, including gambling, drinking alcohol, drug abuse, etc.
An estimated 5-10% of Internet users display addictive behavior, which might explain the explosion in Internet infidelity that we have witnessed in the last years.
Signs of this kind of behavior include staying on the computer for very long periods of time, including late at night computer use, defensive behavior about Internet use, and withdrawal from friends and family.
However, if you suspect your spouse or partner of an Internet addiction or online affair, proving the problem can be very difficult, especially if your significant other is computer savvy.
In such cases,
keystroke monitoring software, like that by Awareness Tech, is a great way to get to the bottom of things. If Internet addiction is truly an addiction like all others, then the person who suffers from it will have a very hard time recognizing their problem and seeking help. Having proof of affairs, cyber stalking, and other such behaviors can help everyone deal with this issue more clearly.
