equates cheating?

The actual physical act?

Daydreaming about someone else?

Chatting online?

Checking a hot member of the other sex out?

Gees Ant, its a pretty fine line where flirting becomes cheating and pretty sure the line shifts for each individual couple.

The short version would be basically anything deceitful. At least in my books. But I'm not exactly the jealous type and things like my partner admiring another woman, or chatting to people online has never bothered me, so perhaps what I consider cheating is vastly different from others.

I'm not the jealous type either, but If another guy was sleeping with my m8, he prolly forgot, and thought he was me. lolol nooo, that would be cheating

Definately anything physical. Flirting on or offline doesn't bother me. But I've been guilty of doing it so I figure I don't have much right to comment on this apart from say its something I'd never do again.

What constitutes cheating in my book is deceit too.. Relationships should be based on honesty & if you find yourself being sneaky, even a little bit, then you're being deceitful. Let your conscience be your guide on that one.

But if you're finding yourself looking at other people more than you're looking at your partner than they aren't the right partner for you in the first place.

I think catching my partner kissing someone else would hurt me more deeply than finding them in bed with her legs up in the air. If she is fancing someone else then just tell me and go jump the other guy. Don't go get a bit on the side then come back.

Cheating is primarily the deceit... so really does not matter what the act, the moment, etc was.. it is the level of deceit that was used on you. The taking away of trust and the amount of hurt defines the level of "cheating"

I think Natasha captured it perfectly. It's almost as though you reached into my brain, and dragged out my thoughts. Albeit much better worded

Anything physical, whether it be a kiss or a full on f _ _ k is cheating in my book. Flirting, online or in person, doesn't worry me at all.

Yep, anything physical is crossing the line in my books.
