Is it cheating if it's phone sex?

I dunno, phone sex seems more like an experience with another person than looking at porn. There's some kind of intimacy there, even if it is feigned. I don't know if its cheating, but if you're having phone sex with someone other than your SO, I'm thinking you don't have the best of relationships to begin with.
 
first off..... no, if she was doing it i would not consider it cheating, but i also think there should be a level of honesty and it should be brought up and told to the SO if choosing to engage in such acts

but i agree with the people saying how dumb phone sex is to begin with

riddle me this:
- are strip clubs cheating as well? just enjoying the company of some friends and lookin at foreign titties? i know i would not be pissed if my GF went to a strip club with a bunch of girls..... again, if i was at least told. if you feel like you have to hide something, then there's obviously something wrong.
 
For those who think phone sex == porn != cheating, would you feel otherwise if, instead of a 900#, it was your best friend/brother/sister on the other end?

I would only divorce for adultery (I'm a strict Christian, sue me). I would consider phone sex grounds for divorce.

oh, and :thumbsup:

and :thumbsdown: to commercial phone sex
 
Yes it's cheating. While there is no physical contact, the emotional connection is there. She'll seem more distant to you and divorce will be just around corner.

Such anger!

I like it when morons get angry over random hypothetical questions and call others morons because they don't realize it was a hypothetical question.

More to come! 🙂

that's ridiculous... phone sex is a masturbation tool, not an actual experience being had with another person.

If phone sex is cheating, is fapping to porn cheating as well? In that case, is all masturbation cheating?



There's anonomity with pr0n, Jenna doesn't know we're all banging her. With the phone sexs, there's interaction! Gay area though...

Fixed

Yes. I am speaking to the anonymous phone sex lines.

If you're doing it with a friend or someone you know, then a personal connection is made and it's not just about pleasuring yourself.

I think cheating occurs when things get personal. On any level.

Really, its almost as stupid as using "Stick out your left hand" as a pickup line... or running home to post about how you hit on a Denny's waitress by asking her to sit with you... or asking if you should be concerned about your SO cuddling with someone else... or wondering what was wrong with calling a girl you hardly knew 5 times a day... or... hey, wait a minute...

and if she's doing the nasty over the phone with some unknown person, and the sex life is BETTA than ever, i'd encourage her to keep doing whatever she's been doing.

So if she's having 5-way orgies with your relatives, but the sex life is better than ever, you're cool with it?

Yeah, just like asking the hypothetical question "If you were starving and about to die and had enough food and water in front of you to last a lifetime, would you eat and regain your strength to live out the rest of your life or ... just ... die?"

:roll:

Like I said... Stupid. Question. Evar.
 
Get over it Nik, some hypotheticals actually spawn a decent amount of discussion. Any "what consitutes cheating" threads actually provide entertaining insight because so many people have so many differing opinions.

take your dickheadedness elsewhere if you don't like it.
