What's your opinion/definition on cheating?

Yes i do believe if someone hides the truth of flirting or sleeping with someone other than your partner is cheating. Even if they say 'oh we are just texting' the intent is still there... anyway i am against cheating...

I'm currently going through a divorce... my husband moved out 10 months ago & the marriage was already dead by then for a while... we are only in contact with regards to the divorce proceedings...

I'm ready to move on & I've recently started joined a dating site. Told a guy i am now currently single but my divorce isn't finalised & he berated me for cheating on my husband...

I am no longer with my ex husband... do u think I'm cheating...?!

I don't use the term *cheating*, because that word implies that love and marriage are just games. Adultery is when two people become involved in an actual physical relationship with someone other than their partner, although I would probably include sexting also under that definition.

Flirting or friendships with other people are not adultery, but you can't be too careful who you talk to or what you say...and one thing can lead to another.

In your case, I would say that your best option is to wait until the divorce is finalised, then there will be fewer misunderstandings/complications.
