if your on a break with someone and u sleep with someone else is it cheating?

Answer 1

Yes.

If you had finished with them completely and done it then it's a rebound. (not cheating)

However if you had just had a row and gone off in a huffy, then you were not single and yes it was cheating.

Answer 2

I would say yes. Everyone needs breathing room sometimes and if you are having problems but are wanting to see if you can sort them out then you should not be sleeping with anyone else as you are still supposed to be aiming towards a commitment with your first partner. You could not have had that much of an emotional connection with them if you go off with someone else

If you have split up and you both accept that it is over then you are free to do what you want however I personally would find it tacky and possibly a lack of respect to sleep with someone immediately after coming out of a serious relationship because deciding that it is over does not always mean that your feelings will cease at the same time as the decision was made. That is just my opinion and not advice, I guess it depends on the emphasis you place on sex inside and outside of a relationship.

I would be devastated if my boyfriend slept with someone else whilst we tried to work out differences. I would be gutted if he slept with someone else immediately after our split too because I would think that meant he never thought that much of me in the first place.

Answer 3

Technically not. But if you're on break with someone... you know there's a chance of getting back together. And I guess it's really more of a moral issue. Whether you are together during the time or not, it still hurts for the other person to know that you were sleeping with someone else during the period that you were taking a break to collect your thoughts.

Answer 4

I think so.

you did not break up with the person but rather just took sometime apart to figure stuff out.

if you still want to be with that person you are going to have to make the decision of whether or not to tell her what happened. If the reason for the break was because of cheating in the past, you better tell her. No good starting again on lies

Answer 5

Depends on how the person you are on a break with takes it. If they think it's cheating, there is no way you can change their mind (and the break may become permanent); if they don't think it is, then you have no problem. Also, consider the feelings of the person you sleep with.

How the rest of the world sees it... doesn't matter.

Answer 6

This is like the real life version of Friends when Ross cheated on Rachel while they were on a break!

Answer 7

It would depend on why and how long you were on a break, i.e if you have finished for good then no its not cheating, however if you were just spending time apart to see how you both felt then yes it would be cheating.

Answer 8

If you are on a break then no. But you should let the other person know before you get back together. Just because your are a break does not mean you are going to get back together.

Answer 9

I'd class it as cheating, but I guess it depends if you really love the person you're on a break with. If you really want your relationship to work I wouldn't cheat. If you're not that bothered about the person you're on a break with, why are you on a break, why not dump them. I'd find it hard to forgive my boyfriend if he cheated on me even if we were on a break.

Answer 10

No, because you are on a break.

How very "Ross and Rachel!!!!!!!!"

Actually, I don't understand this "break" thing. Either you want to be with somebody or you don't. What is the point of a break? If it's just to be sure you want to be with somebody, you obviously don't or you wouldn't have to think about it. And you certainly don't if you sleep with somebody else.

Answer 11

why take a break from someone if u intend on gettin back together? surely if u wanted a break that means u are fed up or need space from that other person...so move on and find someone else.
