~She has become secretive about her whereabouts and gets mad if you become concerned and ask her to give details. She may even try to change the subject to divert your interest. The thing is that she fights with the same objective.
~Her interest in the activities, that you enjoyed together previously, has dwindled. You might notice a series of unexplained cancellations of plans.

Give a Thought
Many women will often mention a particular man a lot in their conversation, saying things like “He is so funny/smart/intelligent…” or “The other day, me and him were…”. This could be a signs of an emotional affair and you can still take control and put an end to it. However, if she stops dropping in the name altogether or only mentions being with her girlfriend(s) an awful lot, the cheating may have become a full-fledged relationship with another man. Here, I have mentioned the signs of a cheating girlfriend, BUT, it is not necessary that ALL of them indicate she may be cheating on you. It could be any other reason; for example – she is not cheating but that is how she generally is, she just needs more space, she wants to give you space, she wants to concentrate on her career, she is no longer excited by your relationship but is not cheating on you, she is trying to bring back the spark in the relationship, you have other relationship problems (not infidelity), there is too much work pressure or she is under stress due to some other cause.
Friends often know about if someone in the circle is having an affair outside the relationship. It is a sticky situation wherein they must stay loyal to their friendship as well be morally right. This leaves them feeling uncomfortable in such situations. Has your mate explicitly told you that he/she saw your girlfriend getting cozy with another man? Do not trust their word immediately because there may or may not be an ulterior motive behind it. Instead of making excuses or wasting your brain cells and mentally torturing yourself, just go and find a valid proof that validates your doubts. Snooping around on your partner is not advisable at all unless you really think she is a cheating girlfriend. A tip to help you catch a cheater is to check her credit card billing history. It will give away details of what has she been doing behind your back like – frequent trips to the restaurant, movie theaters, renting a hotel room or a vacation that was not in your knowledge. Once you are absolutely certain whether she IS or IS NOT innocent, make an independent decision on the fate of your relationship (even if you wish to give her a second chance) and then don’t look back.
