In my opinion, no, it's not. Cheating is when the other person actually engages in extramarital/dating activities when an exclusive relationship was already agreed upon by both people. What your girlfriend is telling you is that she isn't committed to you or this relationship, which is fine if that is what you both want. If you want an exclusive relationship with her, it looks like you won't get it. Ask her why she wants this. If she's got one foot out the door because the relationship is missing something, try to convince her to go to couple counseling. Otherwise, move on.

An open relationship is usually defined sort of as polygamous. Obviously she cares about you, but still wants to explore what other options there are out there for her. Consider the pros and cons of this sort of relationship; if you are jealous by nature, this may not be a good decision. I don't suggest making an ultimatum, but let her know if this "open relationship" would bother you, and maybe it's time to consider whether this relationship is worth pursuing. Good luck to the both of you.

Yes it is. If you are married, the only thing /person you need to have a 'relationship' with is your other half. If one insists in an 'open relationship', There WILL be problems later. Actually, if she wants this 'open' she already is cheating, in her heart.

Well, if you both agree that you want to have an open realtionship, then it's not cheating because you're basically agreeing to it.
Not everyone is comfortable with this though, and these relationships can often lead to a lot of problems.

If you both want an open relationship and you both are honest then it's not cheating. If one wants it the other doesn't and the one that wants it sneaks and does it anyway behind the back of the other, that is cheating.

In my opinion if your other half wants an open relationship, it must mean that she isn't getting 100% satisfaction from you. There must be somthing she is missing in the relationship. I would suggest giving the relationship a break. It would save you the heartache and headache.

For most people the addition of other sexual partners will end the relationship. Not always right away but like cancer it will kill your relationship. For those for whom it works both partners need to be in 100% agreement or it won't work. You are not agreeing. Find out what she's looking for if you can't provide it perhaps you should move on.

She does not believe that co-dependence is positively possible. The Will is positive, the Judgment is negative, the negation for a negation is experienced as positive where no positing has happened. Exactly what description is there for this negative she judges needing negation. I would consider it dissolution for a monogamous relationship, polygamy.
Food for thought: "General envy constituting itself as a power is the disguise in which greed re-establishes itself and satisfies itself, only in another way. The thought of every piece of private property as such is at least turned against wealthier private property in the form of envy and the urge to reduce things to a common level, so that this envy and urge even constitute the essence of competition. Crude communism is only the culmination of this envy and of this levelling-down proceeding from the preconceived minimum. It has a definite, limited standard. "

If your partner thinks that it is not cheating,then it is not.Swinging is not really great experience, sexual desease is a bummer, a person who has no ethics is look down by society. You are in the right path ,you have a moral as a human being.

Tell her she can see just you and no one else, or everyone else but you. Can't have both.
Technically, if she does it against your wishes, it's cheating. If you agree to the open relationship, it's not cheating, because she's not hiding anything from you.
