Sexting

Replies

  • If you are intimately getting to know someone and are hiding it from your significant other, you are obviously aware there is a reason to be hiding it and therefore know its wrong and that significant other would not be happy if they found out.

    This is truth.

    I put sexting in the same category as watching or reading porn. Its not real. You can't get knocked up or catch anything. 50 shades of gray would be considered cheating based off some of the posts here. Its just fantasizing, not acting on those fantasies.
    50 Shades of Grey is a (terrible, lousy, horrible) novel about imaginary people. If you're sending sexual texts to a real, live person, you are doing something wrong.

    Are you telling me you wouldn't be hurt if you found out your SO was doing that?

    I would not be hurt by my SO reading smut or watching porn. I would be hurt by him sending sexual text mssages, e-mails, private messages, whatever, to another woman.
    I would agree sexting is with real live people that you have meet in order to get their number. Porn whatever shoot I will watch it with you it's not real you don't know anyone in the video. I would say if as a couple you agreed that it is okay have at it, but if your hiding it don't do it will ruin a relationship for sure in many ways.
  • As soon as you have to hide, something is wrong.

    Again, this is truth.

    Yes. I forgot to add that if you've agreed as a couple it's OK that it's fine. :smile: In my relationship, it is not OK.

    Never sexted. But, I'm willing to learn. Do they have a class for that?

    Its just fantasizing, not acting...

    WRONG. it IS acting, in concert with another (hopefully willing) participant. elements of fantasy are present in this scenario, but it goes WAY beyond fantasy when another person is actively involved. fantasy is in your head. the moment you open your mouth (or your phone) to share your fantasy with someone else (no matter who it is), you are outside your own head, and are no longer in the realm of pure 'fantasy'--you have entered the realm of action.

    is it wrong to share your fantasies with ppl besides your (committed, monogamous) partner? idk. i'll let everyone decide that for themselves.

    If you have to ask "should my significant other know about this" then its probably a bad idea. Just sayn.
  • Well.. if you do then you aren't exactly in the right relationship, you wouldn't be looking elsewhere if you were.... and nah it's not right.

    What is this sexting you speak of? Is the the thing where you dry hump the phone while on is speaker? That's a good call.

    Depends on the person. If he lived in Europe, meh, not really. A co-worker on the otherhand is different.

    I don't care where the person lives. It's hurtful and it's cheating (unless youhave that kind of open relationship).

    It's quite simple, if you are doing an act that you wouldn't want your significant other engaging in with someone else, it's probably wrong...and it's cheating.

    The wife caught me and we had to have *that* talk.

    *hangs head in shame*

    I told her it was just something I did alone. Not like I was eating other people's Kit Kats. So I didn't see a problem. Lots of people say it is natural and a good thing once in a while. Experts even.

    Not sure how this will end though.

    DON'T DO IT. Whether anyone thinks it's cheating or not is beside the point. What will ALWAYS happen is it will reach a point where someone will get hurt.
