If I were to have sex with another woman, that's cheating, if I started becoming emotionally attached to another woman, that's cheating on my wife. And in my opinion if I started thinking more about another woman than my wife, I would be cheating on my wife there too.
Also, and some people may not agree with me, but if you and your spouse agree on partner swapping (swinging), or having an open relationship where you have an open marriage where you and your partner concent to each other having sex with other people, even if you concent to it, it's cheating, because your going outside of your marriage and having sex with someone else. And people say you can have emotionless sex, but you can't have sex without emtions being involved.

I will assume that you are referring to a man and woman relationship first off. I will say that everyone has their own levels of what is not being truthful and honest in a relationship. Someone wrote if you are thinking about it, then it is cheating. That is something the church would say. Having a dicussion with each other about what you expect and she or he expects from each other would set the rules to start with. If either can come to a agreement on the rules than there is a problem to start with and there will always be a problem.
If there is a sexual need it should be with your spouse, sex anything should be, talk, touching, you name it.
Having friends of the other sex. Well my thoughts are if you need the relationship for some reason, than there should be no problem with the three of us sitting down and talking about whatever it is that has to be discussed, if not why the need to be alone to just talk.
Your in a relationship to share your life with someone, your whole life not parts or bits. If the other person has to be with someone else for whatever reason, old friends you wouldn't understand thing. Than why commit to any one relationship stay in the field and keep your friendships until you are ready to commit to one person fully.
I will get a lot of people saying that is is wrong to be so committed to one person and I say to death do us part. My spouse is my best friend first and everything else comes second.

Plain & simple cheating is any thing u do, but not accept if yr partner does it. And the other way around. You r aware that u will hurt your partner by any act u hide and do it ....it is cheating. NO EXCUSES

Sexual touching is cheating and flirting is definitely a grey area. Being friends and/or talking about life and our relationship with someone of the opposite sex? Definitely NOT cheating.

I consider it cheating if you do or say something that you would not otherwise do or say if your spouse was there also. Or if it is something that you would not be comforatable with your spouse doing or saying without you around.

cheating is touching in any kind of way....or even lying is cheating because lying is also going behind someone's back.

It's not really cheating if it didn't mean anything to you.If it did, emotionally, then I dare say it's called cheating.If it's just a shag then forget it and move on-nobody gets hurt that way!!

Cheating would occur if you have to lie about it. That could also be lying to your self.
