Is it cheating to create online dating profiles and to meet someone from a dating site for lunch and a walk and to send secret messages for months?

This was what my partner did, not me

--------------Well I wouldn't worry about describing it as cheating. I would say it's disrespectful and not the kind of behavior a high value woman wants in her life. That is a low value man.

Sorry I mean man not woman.

Absolutely, but it’s about the relationships boundaries and a unspoken rules of dating… especially if it’s a monogamous relationship. You don’t go searching for people to meet, behind someone’s back, for no reason…

by the way, this wasn’t towards you. If your partner did this, it is a giant red flag, especially if it was of the opposite sex that met up with them.

Yes my partner did this. She said she was unhappy at the time and they were just friends...

I call BS! I understand wanting friends, but that’s not the way to go about it!! It’s all about boundaries set in place though — I find it suspicious that she did it behind your back; secretly, for months, on a dating site.

If something is kept a secret then it is cheating. Why will they soend time in other people when they can spend that time with you? Yes I would say get the fuck out of dodge.

Were you honest with the person you met? Did you tell them you were in a relationship, or did you just lead them on, wasting countless hours of their time? Nice.

Most women would consider this a form of cheating, you're spending emotional energy with someone other than your SO. Not fair!

Ya that's a cheating. When u where in her life their is no need to create a dating people and have date with others

[Jfranco12]

Yes that’s cheating, break up with them immediately

[OddBeMe]

Yeah, that’s too much. I’d say having a profile on a social platform where you have friends (which could be a dating app) is fine. But meeting…no.

There was more than walks and lunch. Dating site generally for getting sex

[worldscolide]

Yeah that's cheating, drop her ass.

[Little_Bumblebee]
