If you are on a "break" is it still cheating?

Question

If you were dating someone for 2+ years and as a couple you two decided you should spend a few weeks apart, not as a couple to see what life is like without them. If one of them has sex with someone else would that be considered cheating or untrustworthy??

Answer 1

Its not cheating,.....if you are trying to see life with out the other then THATS WHAT THE BREAK WAS FOR....i depends on the person if they would still trust the other ♥ GOOD LUCK

Answer 2

I wouldn't consider that cheating but they may have had that person on the back burner and than took the chance to see if it would work. If you guys are back together then you both decided you would still rather be with each other than someone else. I guess if the person waited till they were on a break to sleep with someone else than at least they waited till the relationship was over to test the waters.

Answer 3

Ok, if you were on a break, you can't consider that cheating or untrustworthy, your on a break, and y'all both agreed to that. But If someone you were dating for 2+ years, and I'm guessing that y'all loved each other, I don' t think that he/she would go have sex with someone right after yawls break. He/She either wanted to experience new things, or she wasn't in love anymore. But I wouldn't considering that cheating because technically y'all were on a break, but I don't think he/she made the right choice by doing that with someone, and hurting someone that they were dating for 2+ years.

Answer 4

Personally, I think thats cheating. But it does depend on the rules set up before the break. If the couple is on a break though, it doesn't mean theyve split up, theyre still together.

Answer 5

I think that is extremely wrong. Being on a break should mean just a break from each other, no other dating. I could never get back with someone if we went on a break and i knew he had sex with someone else no way!! He's just having his cake and eating it too, so to speak

Answer 6

If you have discussed a break and agreed that both of you could see other people with no strings attached such as dating and kissing only.....then whatever you choose to do should be a personal decision. If you get back together I certainly would not confess however.

Answer 7

I think sex is a bit much during a break..... i would feel betrayed. especially if you'e planning on getting back together, and you just needed a break. a break is usually meant for time for yourself... not to experience other people, especially through sex. thats something special a couple shares.

Answer 8

Depends what rules the couple on the 'break' agreed on. Personally I think it's the wrong thing to do!

Answer 9

i think its wrong... it would make me feel like the other person was just waiting for the chance to have sex with some one else... and i would feel crushed.... i wouldnt be able to trust them, is it the person who requested the break that slept with the other person?? if so u have ur answerm they wanted to try somethin else, to see wut else there was, it would hurt me, and i couldnt be back with them, if u love some one enough to be with them for 2 years, u dont sleep with some one else 2 weeks after beein apart.
good luck and hope i helped

Answer 10

in my opinon its not cheating but if you are planning to get back with that person, then that was a very wrong thing to do and you will probably get hurt in return, but if you are not planning to get back with them, then thats different and its your life.
