Hi 'a Female'
From reading your letter i can hear your worries,the key lies in his original reply "its probably his sweat" this is probably why he sprayed his shirt the next morning with deodorant, there maybe two reasons for this, one that he doesnt want the questions and acusations again or that if you can smell him then other people can too. This may still be innocent, look at other areas - is he staying later at work? when he comes home from a night out with the boys, does he smell of the pub or freshly showered? has he changed his aftershave? is he dressing differently? and the biggest tell tale sign - has the amount and way he makes love changed? there is usually more than one sign to signal cheating, i would play the loving woman in his life and secretly keep an eye on his actions - if his attention have been drawn by your suspicions he will cover it up. I would reluctantly apologise for your mis-trust last night, let him know how much you love and need him. this should take the heat off, that same night make the most loving meal and sexual contact for him, this should make him see what he would be missing out on if he is cheating. Then you are free to keep an eye on him, then if you find he is cheating you, you can calmly decide what YOU want to do about it, you are in control of your future. Above all he may be innocent, dont react until you feel deep inside and have evidence he is cheating.
