Micro-Cheating Trend on Social Media

Some social media users are engaging in a trend known as micro-cheating, where partners create hypothetical romantic scenarios and discuss whether certain actions constitute cheating. Proponents argue that it encourages clearer communication about relationship boundaries, but in reality, it can lead to misunderstandings and trivializing infidelity to mere actions. This trend shifts the focus from intentions to actions, sparking debates about defining the boundaries of cheating, when the underlying issue might be the concept of fidelity itself.
