Adult NSFW.do you think cybersex is cheating?

Asked by TominLasVegas (1229points) December 22nd, 2009

Why or why not?

I think its a form of emotional cheating which can be just as bad as physical cheating.

No. It is just like masturbating to a Playboy or a Playgirl magazine.

Cyber sex with an actual human on the other end is cheating in my book.
Single-handedly getting yourself off heh heh with the aid of images on the internet isn’t. I know it’s different for everyone, but that’s where I draw the line.

I agree wtih @Likeradar. If you’re communicating with another person about sex, that’s cheating.

Yeah, count me in the @Likeradar group.

I’m squarely in the @Likeradar camp here

Yes. Because you should be doing it with your partner.

I would say that is cybersex is with a form of a cheating. It’s just like flirting or phone sex if thats not your partner then to me you’re cheating.

I completely agree @TominLasVegas.

the people in porno mags/vids are not “real”. They’re just pictures on a page or on a screen. Fantasies.

Being intimate with another living human being, the interaction going back and forth in both directions – that’s significantly different, and is indeed cheating.

If your partner’s not aware and you’re supposed to be monogamous, you bet your ass it’s cheating.

marinelife's avatar

Yes. Definitely. It means that you are turning outside your relationship.

CMaz's avatar

What if the cybersex was with your partner but you both did not know it?

mowens's avatar

Anything that you wouldn’t tell your partner about is cheating.

This was asked before by me, and the responses went about the same way.

@ChazMaz that would be funny if that happened : D, but then both would have to sit down and evaluate their relationship.

I agree with @Likeradar and @Simone_De_Beauvoir
It’s cheating in my books.

cheating? whats cheating?

Jewel's avatar

It seems like it to me.
It is certainly disrespectful of their partner

ItalianPrincess1217's avatar

Of course it’s cheating. Whenever an actual human being is involved, it’s cheating.

Yes. How would you feel if your partner was cybering? Do you have to hide it from your partner? How would your partner feel if they found out?
