Hello Ma'am . Hope you're fine I have a doubt for some days regarding women. I have came across many questions from people (both male and female) that either a woman or a woman's partner is asking questions regarding that the woman has been involved into intimate relationship i.e. sharing their intimate details and emotional feelings to the other man even when they are satisfied in their marriage and these kind of intimate relationship doesn't involve anything romantic but as we all it also betrayal. In short , my question is that why these women got involve into intimate relationship outside their exclusive relationship even when her relationship is satisfying.

Ans: Dear Anonymous,

Cheating in a relationship is not only about getting physically involved with someone. Getting emotionally involved and developing crushes is also considered cheating; at least most people consider it so.

Here are some examples of what people consider cheating or toxic behavior in a relationship- *My GF of last 2 years gets attracted to men, She developed feelings for a guy, She has a crush another guy on insta and she plans to meet.* All of these are from your previous question. That's how I arrived at the "repeated pattern of cheating" conclusion.

But at the end of the day, it is your decision what falls within your idea of cheating.

Best Wishes!

Ans: Dear Samrat,
We are all humans and to develop feelings for someone is not the nature of a particular gender BUT to respond to that attraction is a choice that we have...
To have feelings for someone is also not dependent on whether one is married or not as it can be a product of some inadequacy within a marriage or relationship OR simply an infatuation which knows no age or marital status...
It could also be that you admire someone for who they are and get attracted towards them irrespective of being married or not AND what you do with that attraction is something that you have a choice on...
So, these attractions can be short-lived or when responded to can turn into a full affair but not without dragging a lot of people down...
Bottom line: Attraction is normal and usual BUT how you respond to it is something that will rule the next phase of your life...

All the best!

Ans: Dear Samrat,

I am doing great, thanks for asking. Coming to your query, I assume you want to know what would make one partner continue cheating despite repeated ultimatums. One possible reason could be that she is no longer interested in the marriage. She has "fallen out of love," as we often say. She might no longer respect her husband or care about his feelings. The reasons for cheating can be very complex. It can also stem from dissatisfaction within the marriage, unmet emotional or physical needs, communication breakdown, or personal struggles that we are not aware of. Mental health issues or past traumas might also be involved. Nevertheless, there is no excuse for cheating.

I hope that helps.

Ans: Hello Samrat,
I am doing well, thank you for asking. hope you are doing well too, coming to your question determining whether a partner is cheating can be a sensitive and complex issue. It's important to recognize that the definition of cheating can vary from person to person and from relationship to relationship. What one person considers acceptable behavior may be seen as a breach of trust by another. Open and honest communication is crucial in any relationship. Clearly express your expectations, boundaries, and feelings to your partner. Discuss what each of you considers acceptable behavior and what constitutes a breach of trust. Setting boundaries collaboratively helps ensure that both partners are comfortable with the agreed-upon rules. If you have a gut feeling that something is off, don't ignore it. While intuition is not foolproof, it can be a valuable signal that something may need addressing. Trust your instincts but also approach the situation with a level-headed mindset. Cheating is not always about physical involvement. Emotional infidelity, where a partner develops a deep emotional connection with someone else, can be just as damaging to a relationship. Discuss how you both define emotional boundaries A healthy relationship often involves transparency. This doesn't mean constant surveillance, but it does involve being open about friendships, activities, and interactions. Hiding communication or being secretive may raise concerns. Trust is built on respecting boundaries. Make sure you're not excessively invading your partner's privacy without valid reasons. It's important to reflect on your own expectations and ensure they are realistic. While it's reasonable to expect honesty and faithfulness, being overly controlling or possessive can strain a relationship.

Remember, the key is to have open and ongoing communication with your partner. Building and maintaining trust is a continuous process that requires effort from both sides. If you have concerns, addressing them constructively rather than making assumptions is the best way to move forward.
