Relationship cheating or not?

[Rob1892]

So how many people think it is or it is not cheating to go to a strip club while in a relationship? Obviously it would depend on the boundaries of the relationship correct? But other than that would you or would you not be okay with you S/O doing this whether you know about it or not

It's a yikes, definitely, but the situation isn't as black and white as 'cheating or not'. There are many variables at play. Is he paying them money? Did he plan this himself? Is he out with friends who encouraged him or is it something he's doing independently? Does his partner know? Is he keeping it from her? And of course, is this a regular thing?

There's a big difference between a man spraying strippers with cash each night while his wife sleeps, and a friend's bachelor party he told her about months ahead of time. Boundaries, trust and communication are always necessary

The first thing. A man in the relationship is still a man, the same about a woman.

If likes to watch I don't mind. As long as there is no touch involved, I'm fine with it. I like my steamy novels with "manly", "masculine" and some other man-adjectives describing the male lead :D and I expect my man to respect that :D

i think anything less than lip kiss is not cheat so even strip club even lap dance seems fine but some gals are sensitive about that and might dump you.

Are you monogamous?

If yes = adultery/cheating

If no = it's an open relationship no one cares

im definitely not okay with it. boundaries are important and im glad me and my boyfriend have boundaries to know what is okay and what isn't. personally, it may not be cheating going to something like that, but it still would hurt and i would hate it.

in my opinion it is cheating. The main purpose of a strip club is to provide adult entertainment through dancing naked. When you see an attractive man/woman dancing in front of you with the purpose of seduction your body is definitely going to react. How open are you in your relationship depends on the couple. This is just my take on it.

even going out with another guy is cheating for me.

No. Just a form of entertainment
