Is emotional cheating worse than infedelity?
What do you think? I believe emotional cheating is worse. This takes so much time, energy, and effort. It also takes more contemplation to cheat emotionally. I believe we can all agree that cheating is morally wrong. However, is emotional cheating "morally worse"? Or is there even a difference? Is cheating simply cheating? In my opinion, as stated before, I believe cheating emotionally is slightly worse. With infidelity, there are some many things you can blame the act on. This is not the case with cheating emotionally. Let's take catfish for example, the person doing the "catfishing" is deliberately making a decision to hurt the person they're in a relationship with, in the event that they're in a relationship. The mere fact that a person took all of the time, and energy to make up this false person is more hurtful than, let's say, a one night stand. What are you thoughts about this?

I guess it depends because both have to do with the betrayal of your trust and loyalty to someone. It's just that one is mainly psychological and the other is mainly physical.
ReplyDeleteI would say emotional cheating is worse. While both are bad, emotional cheating implies there are no true feeling for the person being affected in the first place because it is something that comes within and is not just a deliberate act.
ReplyDeleteI think it all depends on the circumstances, but in my opinion I would be hurt more by emotional cheating because it means there are true emotional feelings for the other person whereas a one night stand might not mean anything emotionally and might be the result of a weakness at one point in time. All in all, it depends on the circumstances and each person is different on what hurts them the most.
ReplyDeleteAngel, I would have to say definitely emotional cheating. Real feelings and time are invested, therefore making it much more hurtful.
