FEEDBACK ON VIRTUAL CHEATING: DOES IT STILL COUNT?
BEFORE AND AFTER READING THIS ARTICLE I BELIEVE THAT YES VIRTUAL CHEATING DOES COUNT AS CHEATING. THIS ABC NEWS ARTICLE BROUGHT ALL OF GOOD POINTS SUCH AS ONLINE UNIONS LIKE INSTANT MESSAGING LIKE THE ABC ARTICLE CAN LEAD TO REAL LIFE PHONE TALK. ANOTHER REASON WHY I BELIEVE VIRTUAL CHEATING DOES COUNT IS BECAUSE OF “HEART” CASE, SHE HAD A RELATIONSHIP AND WHEN ASK ABOUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING SHE REPLY IT “NO BIG DEAL ” AND AT THE OF THE STORY IT WAS A BIG DEAL BECAUSE SHE LEFT THAT RELATIONSHIP FOR THE ONE SHE ON THE VIRTUAL WORLD. SUSAN HEITLER SAID IT VIRTUAL CHEATING MAY HAVE THE SAME STING AS REAL CHEATING. VIRTUAL OR NOT IT STILL CHEATING WHEN YOU ARE PAYING MORE ATTENTION TO SOMEONE OTHER THAN YOUR PARTNER IN THE SENSE OF RELATIONSHIP.
