    Cheating for me:
    Kissing someone else
    Having sex with someone else
    Written texts / emails to someone else with the intent to do the above

    I have been cheated on, but never cheated.

    As much as I think Dr Phil is a tool, I think in regards to this issue, he's dead right: if you can't tell your spouse, or have him/her right there, and you have to do it, what ever "it" is, behind his or her back, it's cheating.

    It's really that simple.

    LOVE this quote, and 100% agree! Cheating is not just physical. If you're hiding something or doing something that you wouldn't do in front of your spouse it's cheating. I am big on integrity, which, to me, means being the same in private as you are in public. My husband and I have had this discussion, and I have told him that if it isn't something he would do with me standing right there it's probably not something he should be doing, and vice versa. It really simplifies a lot of things that could otherwise be problematic.

    that is hard to say... because technically i'd say kissing or anything more.... but sexual phone calls to the same person consistently, sexual internet chatting to the same person consistently would do enough damage to a relationship for me to end it... for sure... but then looking at a bit of porn, not cheating...
