* If yon find a pair of crumpled panties that don't belong to you under your boyfriend's bed and you're pretty sure he doesn't cross-dress, you can draw only one conclusion: He's a two-timing weasel. But there will be times when your guy does or says something that seems suspect but really isn't. So before you lead him to the doghouse by his nose hairs, let me fill you in on a few totally benign scenarios masquerading as bad news.

he occasionally keeps in touch with his ex

Unless you're dating a guy who has only recently emerged from the womb, accept that your man's romantic resume didn't begin with you. If he's not a love-'em-and-leave-'em cad, he'll wonder about the well-being of a former flame.

As John *, 29, explains, "I don't keep pictures of exes by my bed, but unless it was a really ugly breakup, there's no reason not to cheek in once in a while." Try to look at it this way: If a man is on good terms with an ex, he's way too evolved to fall prey to childish proclivities like cheating.

he disagrees with you

In the very early stages of dating, a guy is so eager to please, he may even resort to saying things like "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood wasn't that lame." But as time goes by, he'll be truer to his testosterone-dictated opinions. For instance, if you comment about how great your new peasant blouse is and he counters that it makes you look like a pregnant farmhand, he isn't trying to get you to break up with him (even if that's what you feel like, doing).
