"Cuddling" with someone else is pretty damn close to cheating. I mean, WTF? It's very intimate. If they want to cuddle with that person, why not fondling, handjobs, blowjobs or sex? I'd be really upset if I found my partner cuddling with someone besides me.
It’s been my experience that often, after great sex a lot of guys want to cuddle (although I’ve never really been a fan of this). To me this seems to be a rather intimate gesture from a guy to a girl. I’m not sure I would completely qualify cuddling on the couch with a friend as cheating, as there is definitely some gray area there, but without a doubt it’s totally crossing the line.
Yes, I think so... unless its a family member, who else would you cuddle up with? Its not double standards because as much as Id despise anyones arm around my girlfriend but mine... she would feel the same way vice versa.
Perhaps 'cheating' isn't the word butI think that if you have to ask if it is 'cheating' then you know its frowned upon and perhaps unacceptable.
Depends on the friend and the type of cuddling. I have a female friend i have known for a long time if it was her absolutely. We do it now whenever one of us is sad or just needs a hug no hesitation. If it was a guy the most id do is put my feet on him or hand my legs on his knee. No serious cuddling.
A quick hug (even from the front) is okay. Anything more than that... like cuddling on a couch even like in the example picture is cheating for sure. Anything you would get jealous of seeing your partner doing with another person is considered cheating. Some people may not feel negative emotions seeing their partner cuddle with someone but the vast majority definitely do so those are the standards.
I don't like it... that's for sure. They wouldn't like me doing the same either. The answer lies in the response. For me... it's not cheating but not right. You're comfortable with a friend and not with a loved one? Something doesn't look or sound right.

Yes. And I wouldn't cuddle with anyone else, either.

Yes. Without question.
here's the test. Run your potential actions through this, and you will get the right answer every time.
Would you do whatever it is you're fixing to do if your girlfriend/S. O./Fiance/wife was in the room with you?
Stick with that, follow the answer, and have a long happy relationship.

You know what I wonder? How can you cuddle lets say a friend in your case and not catch feelings? What’s the trick? Cause I could never!
Depends on your relationship. That's definitely a no deal for mine.

Depends on your type of relationship to either. Do you feel like somethe=ing is wrong? Does your SO feel okay with this?
Technically no, but I wouldn't accept someone who cuddles with others. Maybe if it was his own child but in this case I wouldn't date him anyway.
Not cheating but I can see it as being inappropriate
In normal relationships, yes, flirting and cuddling is light cheating.
Not necessarily cheating. But really undesirable behaviour
As long as hands don't wander it's no more inappropriate than cuddling the dog
I mean I wouldn’t like to see my partner with other women doesn’t matter if it’s his friend or his cousin.
No, it's inappropriate because it might lead to that.
I don't cuddle with friends, and don't understand how some people think it's normal.
I wouldn't be having it if my SO cuddled with a guy friend.

As long as you don't cuddle with your hand on his dick, you should be fine
If someone is in a relationship, cuddling is reserved for that person. So yes I would consider cuddling to be cheating.
