    It depends on how you and your significant other feel about things. If you don't know and havent' discussed it, the default would be no, it's not okay.

    Cheating is always a positive for all parties involved.

    I would know.

    Isn't the point of being committed that you WON'T be screwing around on the side?
    "Believing something is not an accomplishment. The stronger your beliefs are, the less open you are to growth and wisdom, because “strength of belief” is only the intensity with which you resist questioning yourself. Listen to any “die-hard” conservative or liberal talk about their deepest beliefs and you are listening to somebody who will never hear what you say on any matter that matters to them — unless you believe the same. Wherever there is a belief, there is a closed door."

    Obviously it is cheating, if you want to "sample the fruits" so to speak talk to your girlfriend about an open relationship or take a break. Sleeping around behind your partner's back destroys trust and also increases the likelihood of passing around STDs.

    right, but it's still cheating. You're in a relationship with a person and just having sex with another 1 or more. If both sides are good with it fine, but that doesn't mean all of a sudden it's not cheating.

    It's not cheating if it's agreed to beforehand.

    Nah, a gotcha' question is when you ask someone

    "All of them." - and then you hit them with the Gotcha' question,
    "Name one.": WHAT IS THIS THE MCAT?!?!

    What your wife or girlfriend doesn't know won't hurt her. Smash that slut from work and don't ever tell your chick. Life is too short not to bang everyone you can. You don't want to look up and be 60 and regret not being more adventurous

    Along with everyone else, that is cheating.

    Here's the thing, a little analogy: Once you dip your foot into the pool you will want to swim, once you swim you will want to dive, once you dive you will want to swim under water, once you swim under water you will want to swim in a larger pool, once you progress to a larger pool, then soon a lake and so on and so forth.

    What I mean by that is once you start you will not stop. Not in this relationship nor the future ones you have. Once you cross this line it will become acceptable to you that this is ok to cross and you can push it "this time by going farther". It is the thrill of being deviate you become addicted too, the thrill of the chase, not getting caught. So ask yourself this, if you want to start down a dirty path then by all means take the plunge but be aware and take responsibility for the consequences. Also note this, if you get an STD and your SO is NOT cheating, she comes down with this STD and test positive for it. And in this day and age she can sue you for damages. If you are married, it is grounds for divorce on that alone. It's not just a fling for your dick, there are real world consequences for your actions.

    I never cheated, have been cheated on many times. Cold-Cut communication and left each time. I have no reason to communicate with you after you prove your disloyalty to me like that. You become untrustworthy and not worth talking to. /ghost_on

    "Cheating" is breaking trust between two people by doing something and hiding it from the other person. If you are not hiding it, or if you know the person is okay with it, then it is not cheating. Whether it is "okay" depends on the relationship, I guess.

    They don't mix, EVER!
    It will always end in disaster.

    Why not? "Committed relationship" just denotes that you take your relationship very seriously, no? If so, an open relationship, for example, can be a committed relationship - although it would probably imply that you give to this partner much more attention and significance than to anyone else.

    Best person to ask is your partner.

    It sounds like cheating. If both partners know that a little fling on the side is cool, then it's cool. If, however, one person just wants to lock down their partner's sexual activity with the lie that they won't sleep with other people, then they're just being an asshole.

    It might surprise you, but there are other people out there who are not unfaithful jerks.
