If your partner is nasty and doesn't miss any chance to belittle, criticize,and hurt you, is it considered cheating if you find a few hours of solace and happiness with someone else? I feel it isn't.

Aunty BimBim agony auntIf children are involved it can sometimes be harder to leave, I grant you that, however, cheating is cheating, no matter how much you decide to redefine the word.

And if you do decide to justify cheating by redefining 'cheating" that doesn't mean other people, such as your mean and nasty partner, or friends or family, or even people on this site, have to accept your redefinition.

Aunty BimBim agony auntyes, it is still cheating. If your partner is all you claim them to be, then do yourself a favour and remove yourself from that relationship.
