Cheating is robbing your significant other of the time, attention and intimacy that they expect, deserve and demand.
What a lover would consider to be cheating is different for nearly every relationship.
My ex wife was not accepting of porn because at that time in my life I let it take up too much time and energy and then at night I would not have anything left for her. Once she learned that was due to porn she forbid me from watching it and it caused a big problem anytime that I would. Long story short, there were other issues in the marriage that led to that problem and others and eventually the marriage ended.
On the other extreme I've been in relationships where we watched porn together, checked out other guys and girls together, shared fantasies with each other that involved other people and we not only didn't consider this cheating but our relationship thrived on having that level of communication and the openness that it brought.
It is important for a couple to define expectations and get familiar with boundaries that would be considered cheating. for me it has been different with every relationship.
The relationship I mentioned above, we even went as far as soft swapping, but I have been in other relationships where if I looked twice at another girl or if she looked twice at another guy the jealous fire would have stirred.
Say one thing is I think women are beautiful I don’t know if I feel comfortable in a man talking about another man or fantasizing about him think that’s a little weird I’m not really open to that part but I do understand what you’re saying
Haha! I agree. I did not mean to make that sound like I was discussing other guys with her for my benefit. She was interested in both guys and girls, so she would point out girls to me that she thought I would like and I would point out guys and girls to her that I thought she would like or girls that I thought were attractive.
In my view, cheating isn't about sex, it's about breaking someones trust. If you're in a committed relationship, you and your partner have an unspoken agreement that you won't have sex with anyone else (unless you have both discussed it and are ok with being in an open relationship), and therefore, it's a violation of that agreement to do it anyway.
When you're watching porn, you're not having sex with anyone. Some times, you are going to be in the mood but your partner is not, so you turn to something else. As long as that "something else" isn't another person, it's fine.
Porn isn't cheating because it's just jacking off while using your imagination, basically. The porn is just inspiration but hell, when I watch porn, it'll often help me imagine that I'm having sex with my boyfriend.
Cheating is when you lie/hide things that are romantic or sexual in nature from your partner. Neither of those things are true for watching porn. I often watch porn with my boyfriend, even!
I agree. Cheating requires physical contact with another
@jjj101010 and mental
What’s mental contact?
That’s not cheating to me but some people are super sensitive about it.

Breach of trust, whatever is established between the two (or more parties) I guess...
Porn is not cheating
she's either incredibly insecure or incredibly stupid if she believes porn is cheating. Thats like saying its cheating to look at a magizine, or watch a movie with a sex scene in it.. She needs her head examined. She is clearly not mature enough to be in an adult relationship, because her attitude on this screams "Im a 12 year old little child"
Watching porn is not cheating.
Thats not cheating.
Sex with another person or falling in love with another person. Cumming to porn is not cheating because you are not having sex or falling in love with someone who isn't your girlfriend
Not cheating in my opinion. Everyone watches porn at some point. To varying degrees.
However, it only matters what they agree on.
Cheating is engaging in an act (mental or physical) without your SO prior knowledge and consent
Of course its a kind of cheating
I just think you can do stuff like that together
Yes thats right if must porn watch it must be watch together
Porn is no more cheating than female mental fantasy, so if your “friend” watches chick flicks, reads 50 shade like garbage, or watches shit like magic mike, or even jerks off the common female fantasies like being force fucked by a stranger... she is just as much “cheating”.
Porn is simply visual entertainment and male fantasy. nothing more.
My girlfriend also thinks porn is cheating she has a lot of rules of what I can and can't do but I pretty much let her do whatever she wants
sounds like you need to leave an abusive relationship.. I was with someone like that, it ended with me having scars on my face because she chose to slice my face up..
@worldscolide well she's not that bad
she may not be that bad but her behavior is both controlling and narcissistic, and manipulative.
