Question. If a female starts talking to another man behind her partners back so she can build up enough courage and strength to leave is that cheating? If she is in a relationship where she feels like the man is very angry & aggressive or controlling and she fears for her life ?? That's how it was with my ex. And I started talking to the man I'm with now behind his back because I needed to leave. It wasn't a good environment and I felt trapped. Anything else can be talked out.
Well I am married now to the man I left him for lol and I stopped sleeping with him and ended the relationship before I moved on. Cheating or not. Was a dangerous situation for me and scary so owell I suppose. My husband messaged me 1st , so not like I was going out looking & he was just a friend at 1st.
@kimsnowden8593 no judgements here...I just stating my opinion. I'm sure it was a lot deeper than what can fit on a post. If your happy now I'm happy for you.
In a real relationship, (what you described is just abuse and control, a man who loves a woman doesn’t act like that toward her) but in a relationship with love and actually commitment, I would say yes. In this case no. There is no love where a man can lay his hands. There is no love where disrespect lives.
Yes.. anything else can be worked out. I don't believe In just running to another man lol
I say if you are in a relationship with a POS that abuses you and makes threats if you leave, that’s not cheating. It’s heartbreaking women in domestic violence situations try what they can to leave safely and your method was to have a good man to protect you from the one that abuses you so you can safely leave. You were not in a loving relationship with Prince Charming. You shouldn’t and no one should make you feel guilty for talking to someone behind your partners back.
Thank you. Some ppl say it's still cheating but they don't understand and I was curious to others opinions. Now if we're just having arguments and regular problems and I do that then I could see it as cheating. It was terrible and gave me PTSD.
@kimsnowden8593, when it comes to abusive situations no one will understand why someone would do what they did. Abuse changes you and makes you into someone you don’t want to be. It’s not like you can say oh walk a mile in my shoes cause you don’t wish for someone else to go through that trauma. I sympathize with people that are going through their trauma ❤️❤️ they will say what they want because they don’t understand the situation, it’s hard not to feel some type of way about it. But you are safe and you have a good man and again the most important part you are out and safe 😊.
@alejandra_593 Thank you and for your input mam
Na, by the time a woman is actively talking to an outside partner, she left that relationship a LONG time ago. She thought bout it, wanted to, felt isolated and guilty for YEARS before she FINALLY made a move. There was no relationship. 🤷♀️
True but I didn't start talking to my husband till the last 2 months of my ex and I relationship. Also stopped having sex with him around that time.
If she wants to leave why is she worried if it’s considered cheating
I’d say no since the relationship was toxic and you were already done mentally. Manipulative people are hard to talk to as it is.
Yes and I just had to escape by any means. Didn't wanna wind up on the news one day.
I don’t see it as cheating since all y’all was doing is talking.
But then I got with him lol but
He would often threaten to kill or hurt me but then say " I'm not being serious " if I wanted to do it I would already "( my ex ) and very impatient about everything
Somtimes people gotta do what they gotta do to leave that relationship. Unless, they been their they don’t know the constant fear.
@ausome.boys.tribe Yeah. You should never have to " fear " your partner or husband but rather feel safe around them.

Her helmet she got so she can be safe (as she told me) when she rides her bike and scooter lol
I need help with my dog!
She got off her chain today and when she came back she had a huge gash on her inner thigh of her back leg. It is bloody and super gross. You can see the meat in her thigh. Nobody can get her in tonight and the places that can first thing tomorrow want like $1000. I don’t have that kind of money, at all! What can I do for her?
*picture in comments*

Ok so there's this girl that won't leave my man alone... She's a crazy ex and I want to know what I should do.... It's like she does thing purposely to taunt me and I can't beat her ass bcuz I'm pregnant... No matter what he does our says to her she won't stop.... This is her...I swear y'all it's taking everything in me not to get her beat tf up!!?
I just absolutely love some women on here! Some woman wants to write on another women's post telling her she shouldn't be having sex at all in the beginning of pregnancy. I didn't know she was her doctor. Then she wants to tell me that the first trimester is only 1-9 weeks pregnant. And she lost her baby at 4 weeks pregnant due to sex. Like sweetie that's your period starting!
I would say yes. Only for the simple fact that if it is that bad I would not be looking into talking to another man
I would be looking to change my my situation for me.
If it was the women being abusive in anyway it would be considered cheating. I would say the person in the situation I need to learn to do better or want better for themselves.
