When is cheating considered cheating? If you are in a relationship and find yourself attracted to someone else is that already cheating?

looking is not cheating, touching is. Just becuse you are attracted to someone, doesn't mean you will act on it.

No, just being attracted to someone, I don't that is cheating, If I caught my boyfriend looking at another woman, it would not bother me at all nor would I think he is cheating. However, if he persue his thoughts and act on them. Yes, you would be cheating to me..

It is normal to admire or to get attracted to others. But, when you start to do something with that attraction you have for a certain person like having an illicit affair w/ him/her, that will now be cheating. you should know your limitations.

If you are in a relationship and find attracted to someone else I think that is not cheating. Sometimes we have unexpected feelings for others. But it is our choice to stick to our present partner. It would be considered cheating if you will break your present partner.
