“Cheating is not only sex.”

“The real thing that upsets the apple cart is betrayal and
unfaithfulness. You can easily do that without touching
anyone.”

So how do you know you are cheating on your spouse without
having any physical contact with someone else?

1. You’re attracted to someone else and compare your
partner to him, in a bad way: Look, attraction to other
people happens when you’re in a committed
relationship. That part’s totally fine and good and
normal. It’s what you do with it that matters. If you
think another guy is hot and you keep comparing your
significant other unfavorably to him, you’re not being
true to your man.


2. You lie about the important stuff: Whether it’s about a
friendship you’ve struck up but choose not to share
details of with your sig-o, classes or coaching you’re
doing for self-improvement purposes, money, work
milestones or any other significant occurrences, lying is
a form of betrayal to the one you love. Period. So why
do it?


3. You spend money you two haven’t agreed on: While this
might not seem remotely like cheating, if you’re
spending money behind your partner’s back on
something he or she doesn’t feel comfortable with or
doesn’t know about, you’re not being true. “Anything
that undermines your mutual love and connection is
actually betrayal of the faith in your relationship, and
therefore, unfaithful,”


4. You cant stop thinking about someone else during
sex: Fantasizing about someone else during sex with your sig-
o is no big deal, once in a while. But it can rise to the level of
cheating if you’re “imagining sex with another person — the
same one — consistently while having sex with your partner,



5. You avoid solving problems together: Whenever you do
something to tamper with, weaken or break your connection
with your partner — like giving up on solving problems
together, as a team — you’re not being faithful and you’re in
essence cheating on him.

6. You are very close to another person who isn’t in your immediate
group of friends: If you’re “enjoying emotional closeness —
total emotional unclothedness — with another person who isn’t a
friend in your social circle,” that’s a form of infidelity.
This other person is the first person you think
of talking to because it’s more fulfilling than telling your
partner.” It’s so common and so widely considered cheating
that it’s got a name: an emotional affair. Stop it before it
starts if you want to keep your primary relationship healthy
and intact.
