Is cheating

Answer 1

Cheating is when one of two partners in an exclusive relationship breaks the exclusivity of that relationship without the knowledge, understanding, or consent of the other person in the relationship. This does not include polyamory or open relationships.

In situations where all parties are aware of and are okay with the fact that there is sex happening between two or more people, at least one of whom is not involved in the relationship, it is not considered cheating. That is an open relationship.

In a situation where there are more than two people who are all in love with one another, such as my godfather's situation where he and a man and a woman are all very much in love and love that they all love one another, that is a polyamorous relationship. Polyamorous relationships do not have to include all partners involved. say a man is in a relationship with a married couple, and the man in that married couple has a girlfriend who is married. Neither the girlfriend nor her husband are partners to the first man or his female partner.

Cheating is being dishonest about having sex with people other than the person you are with. Don't do it.
