Man Seeks Advice On How To Salvage His Marriage As His Wife Is Soft Cheating With Her Female Best Friend

Cheating depends entirely on the circumstances and is subjective and contextual. Many would contend that this is just plain dishonesty.

First things first, let's clarify and define what constitutes cheating. Phrases like "soft cheating," "cyber infidelity," and "micro-cheating" allude to fewer forms of deception that are ultimately dishonest but are not typically classified as adultery.

This involves behaving in ways that are inappropriate for a partner, including flirting, even when the offending party has no intention of leaving the relationship. Social media not only makes "soft-cheating" and "cyber infidelity" possible, but it may also facilitate them.

Internet users who participate in online forums and messaging in order to access sexual content are committing "cyber infidelity." These acts are made possible by the nature of scrolling and digesting large quantities of content at once.

Maybe it's the easiness that makes this type of "cheating" easier to get away with. Because it's become easier to hide anything on our phones, it's easy to ignore or deny engaging with content that our significant other doesn't approve of.
