Does my wife's silence imply guilt of affair?

Question - (11 June 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 12 June 2011)
A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

My wife has been acting in a suspicious manner lately. For instance, she immediately runs to her phone to get it (but not necessarily answer it) if it rings and I go over to see who it is (caller ID). I ask her "Don't you want to answer that?" and she will say "Not right now." I used to always look at her phone to see who the incoming call is (if I was near her phone) so that I could relay to her who called like: "Your phone is ringing. It's your mom." Now, she seems uncomfortable with me seeing who the incoming calls are from.

I have no evidence that she is having an affair, but I sat her down and pretended that I had evidence. I told her that she was acting suspicious and that I had reasons to lose trust in her. I told her that I know a lot more than she thinks I do. What surprised me is that she didn't argue with me. She didn't say: "I don't know what you are talking about. You are crazy." or dismiss me in any way. She just sat there silently. When I had said my piece I left the house for a bit and we haven't brought it up since.

Does her silence imply guilt or not necessarily? I think if I was unfairly accused I would defend myself and demand to see the evidence.

She's up to something.

People in her shoes who aren't guilty would at least deny it strongly. Many would be angry that you accused them at all.
