Have you ever messaged someone online behind your partner's back? If so, you could be guilty of 'micro-cheating', the latest buzzword in the realm of infidelity. Ranging from liking someone's posts on social media to flirty private messages, 'micro-cheating' has become the new grey area of dating. But, is it comparable to a full-blown affair? Former Big Brother housemate, Rebecca Jane believes any form of online flirting should be treated as infidelity, whereas journalist, Lottie Daley thinks ‘sliding into someone’s DMs’ is just a bit of harmless fun.

Micro cheating is definitely a slippery slope! Why would you do anything that potentially could lead to cheating? If you’re partner feels bad about a person you dm-ing, just stop. And definitely shouldn’t start dm-ing someone who you’re attracted to. If you genuinely love your spouse this is a small price to pay for him/her to feel more secure and confident in your relationship. You can boost your self esteem many different ways, that includes your partner, but doesn’t include online people’s attention. If you genuinely like that bikini, show that to your wife. There was plenty of times when me and my partner saw a really attractive woman, and just talked about her hairstyle or outfit, and if I wanted to try something similar that she wore.

I agree with lottie absolutely such a difference can no one compliment anymore Rebecca is just insecure thinking more come out off it just because off messages seriously no one should interact anymore just incase something happens ridiculous 🙄🤦

Agreed. One meets and befriends people who are flirty with everyone, and other people who are not. And a good friend is one who treasures all of their friends' styles of relating.
