ORIGINAL: MissLily He most definitly is. If his gf doesn't know about the relationship and the sex, I fail to see how it could not be cheating, or how he can seriously justify it. I just find it soooo selfish when guys say that:"well I have these desires inside me and my gf can't understand and it makes me really unhappy... boohoooooooo". Well, if you're not enough of a pervert to assume it, then live with the consequences of your choice. Men! Those guys just make Me angry... Well, it's not only men! My Wife and I played (briefly) with a submissive woman more than a year ago. she was very experienced, and We learned a great deal from her. At O/our first meeting with her, she explained that she was in a vanilla LTR with a man, but that he would never be able to understand her need for bondage, humiliation, pain, etc. she said that she felt she had a right to sexual satisfaction, as well as a right to keep certain aspects of her life private. Was she 'cheating' on her bf? If there was an understanding and expectation of monogamy, then yes. She was. Was her decision to play with Us a threat to her vanilla relationship? IMO, as long as it remained a secret--no. My wife and I met with her only for play. It was clear from the outset that O/ours was never going to be an emotional relationship, or a 'friendship' of any significant sort. We never met her s/o, and her secret was certainly safe with Us. As a married poly man in an open marriage, I understand more and more how ingrained monogamy is in our culture, and I how prevalent the concept of 'cheating' is. But, relationships (sexual or otherwise) are much more complex (for women, as well as men!) than view that if O/one is seeing more than one person at a time, O/one is a dirty, rotten, cheater who no longer deserves to be loved by anyone. Things simply aren't that simple.
