Infidelity in modern relationships
What debate is actually there count As a cheat. For example, is flirting with other people a form of infidelity? How about following people you find attractive on social media? Or share your deepest secrets with others? Some of these questions may be easier to answer than others, but there are many differences about them because different people define cheating in different ways.
Broadly speaking, infidelity can be considered any act that violates commitments or boundaries in a romantic relationship. Although this sounds simple, it quickly becomes complicated because people don’t usually communicate with their partners about how they define infidelity. Many people just assume that their partner is the same definition as them.

In this article, we will study this United States: National Studies on Modern Love and Dating, A by Kinsey Institute and Datingadvice.comIt provides new insights into how people view cheating and infidelity today.
The study was led by Drs. Justin Lehmiller and Amanda Gesselman feature demographically representative samples, with 2,000 American singles ranging in age from 18 to 91. Participants were asked how they conceptualize the concept of infidelity, in the past doubting what they did when they doubted their infidelity partners, and whether they themselves had cheated.
What is infidelity?
Ask the participants many different behaviors and whether they constitute infidelity. The following figure summarizes these results.
As you can see, there is no 100% consensus on anything; however, there is a strong consensus that something constitutes infidelity. For example, 84% said having sex with someone else was unfaithful, while 70% said kissing another person was the same.
Things get more blurred outside the scope of physical behavior. Participants almost evenly disassembled the flirting with others or establish deep emotional connections with others. Additionally, about one-third of participants felt that buying gifts/meals/meals for others, fantasizing about others, or sharing secrets represents infidelity.
The role of technology in infidelity
Technology has reshape the modern dating landscape in many ways, including our perception of cheating. In this survey, participants were also asked whether their partner would be considered cheating if they were involved in many different technology-mediated behaviors.
It is generally agreed that another person is made into a form of cheating. However, perceptions of residual behavior are divergent. For example, nearly half (45%) of participants said they would think that their partner would send money or gifts to the CAM model as cheating, one-third said they would consider erotic cheating with an AI partner or chatbot, and one-fifth said simply watching porn would represent infidelity.
According to Dr. Amanda Gesselman, a research scientist at the Kingsey Institute:
“These results challenge the way we’ve been thinking about digital behaviors. For example, interactions with cam models or with OnlyFans creators are often viewed as purely transactional. People simply paying for content, and that kind of exchange has become commonplace in our society. Similarly, the prevailing narrative around AI is that it’s providing us with something ‘sub-human’ or lower quality than what a human could produce—whether that’s in the context of work, school, or romance. However, our results show that modern dogs have different views on these technologies.
Overall, the findings of this study suggest that opinions on cheating aspects of today’s singles actually count as relationships are very different. Given this, it is more important for people to start thinking more carefully about their boundaries, including around emerging technologies and communicate them in their relationships. There are not necessarily any “correct” or “wrong” answers here. The most important thing is to have a conversation, not just assume your partner thinks about infidelity in the exact same way you do.
