@Moomin, I am in conjunction with you, that is why i asked where do you draw the line of infidelity...
As an example, a married person meets someone online and the two of them carry on a virtual relationship (but not physical), now wouldn't that be consider cheating their spouse?
I was not referring to an actor or fandom. I was talking about people in your lives, who you find attractive but who might not know you exist. Say the guy at the counter in a coffee shop, the one who you meet in the lift in your office building.. I don't know just throwing it out there .. And yes its not infidelity, but its still wrong and it just means you are not satisfied with your marriage .. and you are in fact cheating your spouse by not telling them how unhappy you are. Or maybe your spouse already knows that you are unhappy and you are just compromising, but then again I don't beleive in living like that. If you are unhappy, I say you get out .. and move on. You both deserve better lives, so do the people around you who want you to be happy.
As for the virtual relationship, if they hide it from their spouse and derive guilty pleasure from it, then its still cheating! If they aren't feeling guilty about that relationship and if its just pure fun, then why wouldn't they tell their significant other about it?
