Not here to judge or persuade anyone anyone about their stance but I am genuinely curious of the modern take on it, at least in this small sample size of KTT2. Also, don't be pressured to make an answer that just suits your habits/lifestyle... its okay to live one way even if you feel another about it.

adultery
ə-ˈdəl-t(ə-)rē
noun
plural adulteries
voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and someone other than that person's current spouse or partneran act of adultery

Cheating is bad and especially bad if you or the other person is married

it’s not real

grow up

It’s wrong if it isn’t done without the other partners consent, but that would fall under cheating

If you mean consensually like polyamory it’s a little weird but not really a big deal, certainly not real in that case

Involving religion/“sinfulness” with it is straight up cringe though

yes and yes…

Do you think it’s real @op ?

Well, yeah. Do you?

Ofc

So what’s the point of this thread

What do you mean "whats the point?" To see how you all feel about it not me.
I had no way of knowing how you felt before you told me.

My opinion is that it’s bad if you claim to be a religious person and you’re out here cheating on your spouse. You should seek forgiveness

Even if you’re not religious if the expectation is you’re both being faithful it’s wrong.

But at the end of the day we’re people and make mistakes

wdym if it's a real thing

Stop it, you can clearly see opposing thoughts itt thus far

The definition posted isn't even religious at all

nigga dumb as s***

Cheating is not real. it is a myth made up by girlfriends and wives.

Also, I found this article that headlines legalizing adultery in NY, which I personally find a bit worrying longislandpress.com/2024/03/12/adultery-bill-031124

Cheating is absolutely a real thing.

Im guessing this technically applies to the definition above, but i feel a legit open relationship (dont think of mfs like adam 22 or Will) where both parties communicate about someone else they'd like to f*** can work out (happens more than ya think) as long as the couple actually love eachother

but actual legit cheating is fkn awful. people above are trippin.

yall tell me youre in a closed relationship and won't lose your mind if you catch your girl sending ass pics to another man in a 1-1 convo, vice versa if she caught you

Why you wanna cheat?

Yes

I believe there is a clear distinction to be made between physical and emotional "cheating" and one of the two is obviously far worse 9/10 times.

For example I'm married and I would never emotionally cheat. I'm 100% loyal to my wife and family and I do not form meaningful relationships with other women. I don't give them the time of day. I have no desire to have an actual relationship with another woman.

I do however pay s***workers for services which are purely transactional and no strings attached. I don't think there's anything really wrong with this. It's just a way to physically stimulate myself in a more entertaining way than just jerking off.

Emotional cheating is true betrayal. Simply having s***with someone no strings attached isn't nearly as bad.
