What exactly is cheating? Care to spare a few thoughts on that and share 😛

To tell you the truth I don't know much as I have never been in a relationship. There are various levels I guess from flirting with other people other than your partner, sending them messages often ones of a flirtatious nature etc, going out with someone else to having a full on relationship. It depends on an individual person's definition and how they react.
I know I wouldn't like it if my partner was flirting with other people and if it got serious on their part with someone else then I would rather live life alone as a spinster with friends than them.
It's a shame when people don't learn their lesson the first time and continue though.
What is your view?

I'd call such a person confused and asking for trouble, who wants to his cake and eat it too. Well good luck and have fun while it lasts.

I think it all depends on the comfort and trust level shared with the partner. In some, it may be too strong to feel threatened by such petty things. 😊

I am not completely sure. Even in very strong relationships the idea your partner envisages or has wanted to cheat on you for whatever reason still hurts. Whatever type of relationship it is. I have heard of open relationships where the partners have said to each other at the start they are welcome to see others but I don't know how they work out in reality.
It may seem like petty things but it is important to an individual who doesn't see it as petty. To them it hurts and causes a lot of emotional turmoil and heartbreak. It could define their future relationships and affect them. They might not trust their future partner at all and endanger that relationship. I have read of several people who couldn't form relationships with others because someone in the past broke their trust by cheating and now they simply cannot trust anyone else.
My final take is just to be honest in the relationship at the start and see how that goes. If someone can handle two people at the same time then that's their choice. If they can't maybe one is better.
But they should at least think a little bit about the affect of their actions on them and their partner. No one wants regrets and heartbreak even if they're really strong on the outside.

It is common to feel insecure and possessive in relationships in the initial phase. It takes time to build up trust. Once that point is reached people do manage to settle into a comfort level based on trust and understanding that cannot be expected in short time relationships. Stable relationships take time to mature and may not feel threatened by things like sms, or harmless flirting.
