Cheating is one of those funny things that should be clearly defined, but somehow the definition is murky at best. If you ask 100 people “what do you consider cheating” you’re bound to get 150 different answers. The strict folk among us (myself included) believe that even the smallest lip to lip, hand to breast, or hug for more than 2 seconds is cheating.
The more lenient are well (searching for a nice way to say this)…more lenient. Have you ever heard one of these delightful quotes?
It wasn’t cheating, we just kissed.
Only my shirt came off, nothing else.
He/She is just an old friend.
I felt lonely and he/she wasn’t there.
Everybody makes mistakes.
Personally, I wouldn’t buy any of this from the clearance rack of a dollar store. However, this isn’t about how I feel. It is about how the Survey Magnet community feels. So tell us…what do you define as cheating?

My grandma always told me if you’re not married, it ain’t cheating.
If it comes out ya pants, you’ve crossed the line.
I had such a smart ass response to this, but I can’t bring myself to say it about grandma.
You’ve crossed the line way before it comes out your pants. So kissing, rubbing, hugging, and massaging don’t count as cheating?
Cheating is any act you do with someone outside your relationship that you do with your significant other.
Like the intro says, everyone has their own ideas. I rub against folks in a bar is that cheating, hell I’ve even copped a feel in the club.
Is that cheating?
Hell I’ve even kissed cousins (not on the lips).
Sounds like even nasty thoughts to you would be cheating? What about watching a flick or pleasuring yourself?
Wow…I actually agree with this guy.
If you feel guilty about doing it, it was cheating. If you don’t feel guilty, I feel sorry for your SO.
1) If you’re copping that feel while in a relationship you’re a slob
.
2)If you’re drooling on your cousin’s cheeks you’re just weird.
3)Nasty thoughts are ok
4)Pleasuring yourself is ok as long as you’re not on video.
Choking the chicken isn’t okay is some minds.
Ah the ole mind trick…
So, here’s a scenario for you. You’re in a “committed” relationship with someone. You’re friends with a young lady whom you find very attractive and you kinda think she likes you but she’s never really acted on it (just light flirting) and she asks you to lunch/late dinner. Just you and her. You seemingly see no harm in it …but then again, there is the issue of you knowing that she does like you as more than just a friend. How would you handle that situation?
*waves hand* These aren’t the cheating scenarios you were looking for.
Cheating i think is anything that you do that you would not want your significant other doing.
And probably if you have to think long and hard before you do something with someone else, more than likely you should just keep your relationships open.
I have to agree that cheating is defined as any contact with another male/female that you wouldn’t find okay if your mate was also doing the same.
So…if you’re okay with your mate doing it…can you do it?
If you are okay with and know that your mate is cheating and you choose to do the same, it sounds to me that you don’t have a relationship….even if it is open….I just don’t agree with that BS.
