A Kiss... Cheating or Not?
10 months 3 weeks ago
I recently had a discussion with one of my friends about a situation that he's in. He has been talking to this girl who is in a relationship and wants to be with him. He asked me if he should pursue this girl and I told him to put himself in the shoes of her bf and then ask that question again. At this point we got on the topic of cheating and what actions fall into that category. We both ended up agreeing that any sexual contact would be considered cheating. What we didn't fully agree on was that kiss is/isn't cheating. He doesn't think that it is because there is no harm in it. I said that's true to an extent. I personally think it depends on how the people fell about one another. In his situation, it would be due to how the girl feels about him. Though, I have friends that I could kiss and not have it mean anything. I would like to here your opinions about this. Thanks.
A kiss is known in the the World Health Organization as a contact, that, while not sexual (reproductive) it is connected with Sexuality... furthermore "A kiss is the touching of one person's lips to another place, which is used as an expression of affection or to show respect, and as a greeting or a farewell; kissing can be used to express romantic affection or sexual desire."
It really depends... but from the way your telling us, it implies sexuality.
in my opinion, IT IS, cheating!
lol :P

Unless stated otherwise with your SO, I'd say a kiss is cheating. :s
But, it all depends on the people. Some people would say yes, some no. I think it just reaffirms my belief that you need to talk to your SO when you first start dating so you can get those sort of ground rules set.

I would say kissing is cheating. Except for some cases, like if someone forces a kiss on you and you don't kiss back, in which a firm pushing away or slapping should subsequently occur to the strange kisser. And maybe if someone is in a culture in which kissing is something people do with everybody, I would say it isn't cheating unless it is a very passionate-type kiss. *nod* :]
When I was with my ex, I kissed my current bf, and then broke up with my ex some hours later, so I don't really consider it cheating because I broke up as soon as I could.. and that relationship had been sinking for a long time.

LOL couldnt help myself and stopped by this thread. My answer: IT IS CHEATING!
There, said it.
There, said it.
Haha, I saw this thread on the main page and had to swing by to comment.
To me, a kiss is a form of small-time commitment. It shows that you're serious about someone. So in my opinion, if you're in a relationship, you shouldn't be kissing other people. I'm sure not everyone feels strongly about it, but it's still a matter that could potentially cause great offense.

I say kissing on the lips is cheating, any other type of kissing might not be. It depends on the type of boi/girlfriend you might have. But then there are those kisses that can't be helped, i say those don't tho. Kisses like, i dunno, actor kissing, forceful kissing and others~
I guess kissing is showing some love to someone..i think is not consider cheating if you kiss someone tat you really loved wif..like your parents..ur loved ones..or bro and sis..
Haha i think my hobby is kissing
coz im like...kiss a lot in a day!!
umm anyway...i think a kiss is okay...i kiss my bf, my guy friends, my bff, my dad, my mum, my sis, my bro and even an unknown
but for deep kiss...i don't think i would deep kiss anyone besides my bf^^

LongbowIt's not sexual, but just shows that you love the other person, so I guess it could be cheating...
Its sexual... even when you don't show affection its sexual...
Unless its a cultural thing, like a greeting, its implied with sexuality all over it, affection or no affection...
I dont wanna make extreme definitions, but even a greeting in the eyes of the WHO is sexual... sexuality kinda drives us in mostly everything we do, the way we dress, we behave, the way we go about our bussiness...
so, if not cultural, it is cheating!

I'd put my qualitative stamp of "Tongue = yes" on this.
Some cultures are just really... kissy. But I think it's world accepted that it's polite to keep your tongue to yourself unless being polite isn't an issue anymore. Really it depends on the people, the intention and who all is involved.
"Making out" with your best friend to get a rise out of people, poor taste but not cheating.
Kissing your ex on the cheek, could be considered cheating.
Go with your instinct. If it's important to you, it doesn't matter where we draw the line, it's where YOU and your partner draw the line.

Well for me, it definitely is cheating;
but I guess for other people it depends on what realtionshipt yoou have. some people don't mind if their partner has affairs, but yeah...I wouldn't want to have that kind of relationship~
for me, kissing another guy means that I have feelings for him, but probably some people don't mind;

Well, I think that depends, are we talking about sexual kissing? I think it really depends on the situation, though I think pretty much any kind of kissing is probably cheating. Unless the guy is kissing the girl like he would his mom or his aunt, its definately wrong and crossing the line. If it was a tradition like the Italians or the French... then that should be taken into consideration.
I personally wouldn't appreciate it if my guy was kissing another girl, EVEN if they are just friends, I think it blurs the definition between girl friend and girlfriend.

I think it depends. Full on pash or a peck on the cheek? Its quite a normal greeting gesture in my opinion.
