What Is Considered Cheating?

A lot of people have their many definitions on what they think cheating is because it can range from how people view relationships and what is acceptable or not. Some people feel that engaging in any physical contact is cheating, others think is it's all emotional, and some believe flirting is cheating. It seems like there is no real definition of cheating. At the same time people have reasonable antics on the different signs. Honestly I think it is anything that has to do with intimacy meaning if you are sharing intimacy with someone else other than your partner is cheating alone because you are taking private connections with someone to another person and that's pretty disrespectful. At the same time people have their reasons and they are just too scared to tell their partner because they don't want to hurt anybody's feelings, but who they are really hurting are themselves.
