I've seen this exact same topic on another forum about a week or so ago!
Also, yes, it's still cheating, the gender of the other person has no relevance on this.
The OP is under no obligation to feel wronged just because most people would. If he's not bothered by it, that's fine.nekoali said:I can only facepalm very hard over the original poster's attitudes.
"It's not cheating if it's lesbian"
"Can I watch?"
Seriously, cheating is cheating.
At least one of the two is not a lesbian, as evidenced by the fact that she's already in a sexual relationship with the guy that discovered their tryst. You're pretty much down to whether the "hypotenuse" (the OP and the girl his girlfriend is cheating with) are okay with a polyamourous relationship.nekoali said:And no, most lesbians are not going to let you watch, the same as most hetero couples aren't going to let you watch.
Don't know why you're raging so hard. I've asked about people's opinions and their own relationships, not about this exclusive situation.nekoali said:I can only facepalm very hard over the original poster's attitudes.

Seriously, cheating is cheating. And no, most lesbians are not going to let you watch, the same as most hetero couples aren't going to let you watch. They are human beings, not things there to entertain and excite you. There are plenty of movies out there for that.
Now, me personally, my girlfriend DOES see other people. Men and women. And tells me about it. I am okay with this, as we have an open polyamourous relationship. She is also perfectly okay with me seeing or dating other people. So for me, my girlfriend can't 'cheat' on me, unless she's hiding things. It doesn't bother me in the least that she sees other people, in fact I find it kind of fun and makes me happy for when I can't be there for her.
However, if I were in a monogamous relationship with the expectation that neither of us saw/dated/slept with other people and I found out that my partner was going behind my back... I would be hurt regardless of the gender of the person they saw. It's not a matter of who they were seeing, but the fact that they broke the trust we had that makes it cheating.
I know the difference between love and sex, I'm just surprised that some people wouldn't trust their partner in these situations. Of course it differs from individual to individual, relationship to relationship, and the boundaries you set in said relationship.Vivace-Vivian said:Being a woman, who has been with a woman, we aren't just playing around.
As much love can go into a lesbian sexual encounter as any other and that, is what you shouold be worried about. Anyone can have sex with you, not anyone can love you.
Jesus Christ, remind me never to hurt you!Suki the Cat said:Kill her. Kill her dead. That's what I'd do anyway >>.
Cheating is cheating, the bottom line is that a committment to another person is a committment. You don't swear exclusivity to someone, even temporarly, and then go around having sex with whomever tickles your fancy at any given moment.disturbed_one said:... would you really call it cheating. I've thought about it before, but it happened to my friend a couple of days ago. He's still in denial about it, but I don't get why is it a big deal. Hell, I even don't get what women even see in us. If I was a woman, with all the knowledge about men that I have now, I'd most certainly turn lesbian.
So would you call it cheating or you'd just say 'meh'.
Personally, I'd ask if I can join in, or atleast take some pictures ^^
