Is it cheatin..
 

All over the world, men and women are flirting with strangers in chat rooms (and BB's) on the internet. Are they cheating on their real life mates? At what point do you think they go over the line (if there is a line)?

Re: Is it cheatin..
 

Of course not. Typing is not cheating.



When they meet for sex. (There is a line if they established boundaries in their relationship.)

I agree with Lorelei I take a good note of her posts i think she is a very intelligent young lady (sexy too)

keep posting Hun

For once I too totally agree with Lorelei.

what they said! :0

I disagree. If you're seeking sex elsewhere, be it chat, phone, or real-time, there's probably something lacking in your relationship (unless your SO knows about it). Just my opinion and I don't judge anyone for chatting online while married.

I think this case is a bit compareable to the question if it is cheating having sex with a prostitute.
What do you think?

I disagree german steve, having sex with a prostitute is cheating. But having conversations with members of the opposite sex that may be about sexual matters doesnt even come close.

A conversation about sexual matters is one thing but having cyber sex is on a whole different level to me. Personally I would consider it cheating, but that's just me :)

Re: Is it cheatin..
 

At the point where they break a promise made to their mate(s). What promises people make is, of course, up to the individuals involved.

Talk about the proverbial ball and chain....Jeez, don't get me started!

I'm sayin' no more! :rolleyes:

I flirt all the time, its good humoured and not targeted at sexual relationships. I did not go outside my marriage when it was functional or even for a long time sfter that. When the affection and the sex stopped to a couple of times a year, I very occassionally visited a prostitute. It helped keep my emotions and physical needs in check. I did not do it to cheat but because I was not getting it where I should have been and wanted to.

there are different circumstances where there are shades of grey as well as black and white.

As a rule I dont cybersex these days unless I am particularly close to that person. That means that I feel love for that person. In the last 3 years that has applied to only 2 people.

I have close friendships with a few very attractive pixies ladies, all of whom are in a realtionship. I respect those relationships and support them. I am a romantic at heart and to know two people are in love is wonderful. I have turned down offers from some others and I think I have decent morals.

I have not adjusted to being single and am still coping with the ending of my last realtionship

I'll have to agree with the three S's here:
Steph
Scarlett
& Sharniqua

...cheating starts in the mind. If a person feels the need for gratification elsewhere (i.e. titty bars, cybersex, etc) there MAY be a need to re-assess the value of his (or her) relationship...

...and TALK ABOUT IT to his (or her) partner.


Lorelei,
Although I disagree somewhat with your opinion, please don't excuse yourself from this discussion -everyone's viewpoint matters...

...do I sound hypocritical by posting that opinion on an adult picture posting site?
