yes it is in my eyes same if you were thinking of touching or even being with someone other then your partner it is still cheating as you are not thinking of your partner at that moment but someone else

My personal opinion, is that if you are doing something of a sexual nature with someone who is NOT your partner, it is cheating unless you have the partner's consent.\n\nOtherwise, it is a betrayal. You wouldn't be getting "caught" if it weren't wrong for your situation. You wouldn't be hiding out if it were ok.

umm cheating is cheating. if you are in a commited relationship does it matter what gender your partner is hitting on? no if your partner is hitting on another human then well they are not content with you regardless of what parts they have.

Well you have an open relationship.  If you can flirt with other guys and have a monogomous sexual relationship then more power to you.  I would be proud of having that type of relationship, see what else is out there and have a guy that wants to go home with you everynight.

yes, i think it's very possible to do that, and am pretty sure i do it alot.  it's the whole defensive wall thing.  my daughter told me the other day this girl in the restaurant was blatantly flirting with me and I didn't acknowledge at all, she was quite hot too.

Yes, you are cheating. Some people say cybersex is not cheating because you do not engage in Physical contact with that other person, but remember that you are engaging in an act of intimacy and sexual content with someone else, BEHIND YOUR BOYFRIENDS BACK. If thats not Cheating, Then I dont know what it is.\n\nI  think cheating also has to do with what the couple considers cheating.\n\nSome people dont think Oral sex is cheating(Remember Bill Clinton) I read an article about guys who had oral sex outside marriage but Never intercourse, Because they didnt think it was cheating.\n\nOther men go as far as stating that, If you do not love that other person, then intercourse is not cheating , because you are Not Making love, you are just having sex with someone(this, I think is just Bullshit LoL)\n\nFor people in an open relationship, Sex with other partners is not cheating, as long as they keep committed to each other and are honest about it.\n\nKissing someone else is also a way of cheating, and, In some cultures, even flirting or hitting on someone whos not your partner is considered cheating.\n\n\nI personally believe that any act in which you engage in things of a sexual nature, behind your boyfriends back, Is cheating.\n\nNow, think of your particular case. Why are you hiding it? If your boyfriend found out, would he get mad? If you found out your bf is having cybersex, would you consider that cheating?  If you answer yes, then I think you are cheating.

I don't think what we say matters. The person you need to understand would be the person that would feel as though they were being cheated on. Some think a kiss is cheating and others think holding hands and the intent to cheat is cheating. That is a hard question to answer because it comes down to personal beliefs more than any unwritten rules that may exist.

Flirtation crosses the line when it accompanies attraction.  My husband, for example, is a harmless flirt: he flirts with any woman who wouldn't really take him seriously (elderly ladies, for example), and if someone does act interested or attracted, he shuts down immediately.  I think that flirting crosses the line when the individual who is flirting says or does things that s/he wouldn't say or do if their significant other were standing within earshot.  It's hard, too, to define the term "flirting."  It's a subjective term, and "flirting" as in sexually suggestive movements or language is quite distinct from "flirting" as in playful and friendly behavior.

Umm...well...Eden has perhaps missed the question's point...flirting as in initial content or introducing yourself...not getting to the "I love you" portion of a relationship yet...what holds my attention is eye contact...hold me with your eyes...hold my attention with your stare as we are introduced...or your saying "hi..."....

That's a good question, I like that one. Well, I guess a lot of flirting is subtle.....but this week I was hit on two times, and both guys were kinda hunky....though I think ther intentions were dishonorable, I was flattered, because I am in my forties with two teenage children! I thought "Great! I haven't lost it yet!!"\n\nMy partner flirts with me all the time which helps keep our relationship alive.

Flirting can be as simple as a gesture or expression or as complex as a string of casual words with a specific purpose (but not necessarily a straight meaning). If you smile shyly, flip or play with your hair or even comment with subtle innuendo then you flirt. Sometimes even posturing can play a role in flirtation, sticking out your tongue, or even a provocative glance can send people into an emotional turmoil. Because that is what flirting can lead to; the thoughts of inherent possibilities.

Hell No! Seduction is a bad word by itself. A little flirting is ok but SEDUCTION? no way!

You know what, I'm really sure that guy is flirting with, its just a different approach... You know, when guys like us flirt, it doesn't always mean that we have to touch you or something to make you feel that we are interested with you, always remember that when a guy only talks, makes you laugh, wants to have constant communication with you, that's a solid proof that he flirts with you... And for me, be proud of yourself because that guy will not show respect to you even he flirts with you if you don't deserve it, it only means that for him, you are a descent woman that deserves to be respected... And that's a compliment... And its good that he knows his limitations to you...

flirting or cheating one or the other depending on motive

Married or not if you have a commitment with someone you should not cheat. You should ask yourself if you are wanting to cheat on someone, why not just leave that person and let them move on to someone who cares for them. I consider cheating when you do anything intimately with another person other than your significant other. That could be holding hands, intercourse, kissing, and even sharing and in depth meaningful conversation. It is wrong because you are taking something sacred from your partner. People, I think cheat because they need some kinda of reassurance that they can attract someone other than they're partner. This is caused by low self esteem. If you are contemplating this don't hurt your partner for your own self gratification. ITS WRONG

There is a strong chance that he is NOT cheating!!!!\nBUT he is surely not attracted to here sexually.... BUT he might like something in her that he values more than sex.... that could be a reason that he is still around!
