In your opinion, what is the difference between cheating and micro-cheating? Or is it just all the same?

Both are same shit but micro-cheating is the one with subtle and hypocritical way

I would like to sue the person who came up with the term micro-cheating because nothing differs one with another? Cheating is cheating no matter how small and I think we as a society have been too kind with cheaters... they deserve worse :3

Cheating is cheating. No micro or whatever that shit is. And a cheater deserve a special place in hell.

It’s still cheating. Honestly, the only difference is that the latter is not yet apparent, but it’s still cheating anyway. Whatever form it is, it is still cheating when you’re in a relationship and yet you think about other people romantically or sexually, even without doing anything about it.

To me, cheating is cheating, no matter what label you put on it. Even if it’s “micro-cheating,” it’s still crossing a line that’s supposed to be there for a reason. I just read it somewhere: when someone does things they wouldn’t want their partner to know about—no matter how small—it just starts chipping away at trust. And it might not seem like a big deal at first, but it’s still a form of betrayal in my eyes. At the end of the day, no matter what kind it is and how it happened, it can still hurt just as much.
