There are little things that count as cheating that you should never do to your partner. Cheating doesn't have to mean that you're making-out with someone behind your partner's back. Emotional affairs also exist, and there are straight up lies that can count as cheating. You don't want to upset the love of your life, so here are a few little things that count as cheating that you should avoid doing at all costs:

1. Lying about Being in a Relationship
If you're in a relationship, but you tell someone that you're single, then something is very wrong. You should be proud of your partner and want to brag about them every chance you get. If you're lying about being single, then you're leading someone on while disrespecting your partner. It's one of the little things that count as cheating, so you should avoid doing it.
2. Texting Pictures
If you're friends with a member of the sex you're attracted to, you have to think about what's appropriate and what's disrespectful to your partner. If you want to send a friend a picture of you making a silly face, go ahead. If you want to send that same picture while you're in your underwear, it's a bad idea. You should always think of your partner's feelings before you do something that could be seen as cheating.
3. Flirting in Any Way
Don't flirt with the waiter, because you feel like he had a rough day. Don't flirt with the cop that pulled you over in order to get out of a ticket. If you wouldn't want your partner to behave the way you're behaving, then you shouldn't do it either.
4. One Kiss While Drunk
It doesn't matter if you're intoxicated, sleepy, or overtired. You're responsible for your own decisions. If you cheated, then you cheated. There isn't any good excuse for doing so, so take responsibility for what you've done.
If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.
5. Not Telling Your Partner
If you've been innocently texting a hot guy, but purposely avoid telling your partner about it, it's sketchy. You should be honest with your partner, and shouldn't be keeping secrets from him. If you feel like you can't tell him about the guy you're texting, then you probably shouldn't be texting him in the first place.

6. Having an Emotional Affair
Cheating doesn't have to involve kissing and touching. You could have an emotional affair by falling in love with someone else, or simply telling your deepest feelings to someone who isn't your partner. Emotional affairs are tricky to define, but you should know it when you're having it.
7. Anything You Agreed Not to do
What is and isn't considered cheating is different in every relationship. If your partner made it clear that he doesn't want you talking to your ex, but you do so anyway, you're disrespecting him. If you agreed not to do something, even if you find it silly, but then you do it anyway, you're in the wrong. If you didn't think the rule was a good one, then you should've told him ahead of time.
No one wants to be cheated on, and if you love your partner, you'd never hurt them by destroying the trust they have in you. Have you ever been suspicious that your partner was cheating on you?

Angievm: I agree with Angie ..Bree ? You are obviously a teen or young and not really world wise .. You can control whether or not you let your heart or brain attach to a person .. By removing yourself from the situation or even better, don't put yourself in the situation in the first place .. I.e .. Stop shopping for male attention , have have chosen if you chose someone to be that one then stick to that one with eyes mind and heart . If you don't then he is able to find the right person once you proved what you are . person
Cristina: what other people have to say about u!
