Re: Is ERP cheating?

I would not consider this cheating. You are right, though. Your bf might. Personally, I don't consider any kind of sex chat cheating unless you get personal and try to foster a rl relationship.

I don't really have advice. It's up to you to determine if your bf's feelings on rping could end your relationship and if you want to risk your relationship by either telling him or not. You have to weigh which is worse and more risky: the secret or the truth.

Everyone lies and keeps secrets in relationships. As much as I always wanted to believe my SO was 100% truthful, I discovered that was not the case. I have secrets of my own, as well. Keeping a secret is risky, but, sometimes, telling the truth can be worse.

OP here.

See, I never considered it as cheating either. I would have never started it if I honestly believed it would be an act of betrayal to my boyfriend. But reading everyone else's comments, it seems that I am, even though I feel inside that I'm not.

I didn't keep it from him out of guilt initially. It just felt...an awkward subject to bring up. But now that time has passed, and what I thought was just a fleeting thing became longer, it just seemed so much worse if I brought it up now.

I think I'm going to end the ERPing. It would just crush me inside if I kept going, knowing that it could wreck what I have at any second. I'm going to keep in contact with the other guy though, since I really do treasure our friendship (and if he doesn't, well that's fine too.)

And I'm not going to tell my bf. I'll just think of this as a boundary not to cross again, unless I speak with him first, and move on. I think that's the best thing I can do rather than risk something so important over something so little in retrospect.
