WEBVTT - MINI! Is your partner micro–cheating? Find out HERE 💔

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Look, I would say most of the population is on

0:00:02.560 --> 0:00:07.000
<v Speaker 1>board and has the same feelings surrounding cheating in a relationship.

0:00:07.240 --> 0:00:10.160
<v Speaker 1>But I think where the water gets a bit muddy

0:00:10.440 --> 0:00:13.880
<v Speaker 1>is with this term micro cheating. Now, there's this list

0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:16.279
<v Speaker 1>going viral online at the moment on TikTok that this

0:00:16.400 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 1>one girls put out to her what constitutes micro cheating? Now,

0:00:21.400 --> 0:00:23.480
<v Speaker 1>micro cheating if you don't know when your plane at

0:00:23.480 --> 0:00:28.639
<v Speaker 1>home is like anything that is considered crossing a line

0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:31.440
<v Speaker 1>without it being physical, Like they haven't gone out and

0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:33.480
<v Speaker 1>hooked up with someone like physically, you know what I mean.

0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 1>But it's things that deep down you know that ain't right.

0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 1>You know your partner's probably not going to be happy.

0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:41.320
<v Speaker 2>Whenever I think of micro cheating like as a concept,

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:43.000
<v Speaker 2>the very number one that comes to mind for me

0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:45.519
<v Speaker 2>is like liking other people's like as in like if

0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:47.800
<v Speaker 2>you're dating a guy and he's liking all these bikini

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:51.320
<v Speaker 2>photos over and over and over, You're like necessary or not?

0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>You see? To me, the thing that comes to mind

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:58.560
<v Speaker 1>first is I guess probably secret conversations or excessive conversations.

0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:00.520
<v Speaker 1>So if it was a relationship with mean a man,

0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:05.240
<v Speaker 1>like if my partner was messaging another woman a lot,

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:07.640
<v Speaker 1>asking how she is checking in And even if I

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:10.240
<v Speaker 1>knew or if I didn't know, that is micro cheating

0:01:10.640 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 1>just cheating?

0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:13.440
<v Speaker 3>Well no not because if they're just like, hey.

0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>How are you, I'm like, look, I know that there's

0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:18.200
<v Speaker 1>some deeper feeling there. But this list tell me what

0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:20.720
<v Speaker 1>you guys think about this, because this is the controversial part.

0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:25.920
<v Speaker 1>This is her list of micro cheating secretly messaging someone, flirting,

0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:32.040
<v Speaker 1>maintaining contact with ex's adding or liking half naked people's

0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:36.400
<v Speaker 1>pictures online. Yeah. Yeah, seeking new friendships with people that

0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:40.280
<v Speaker 1>you find attractive, so like actively going out to meet

0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:43.520
<v Speaker 1>new people because you think they're hot. Lying about your

0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:45.800
<v Speaker 1>relationship status online or in person.

0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 3>To me, that's just cheating. Yeah, I think that's just cheating.

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:50.640
<v Speaker 2>But also I guess the problem like this, if you

0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:52.280
<v Speaker 2>haven't heard of this idea of micro cheating, I think

0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:54.720
<v Speaker 2>the reason why it's such a gray area is because

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.000
<v Speaker 2>sometimes it sounds a little bit crazy when you say

0:01:57.040 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 2>out loud or I don't like these things that you're doing,

0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 2>because like they haven't actually done anything that's one hundred

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 2>percent black and white wrong. It can actually make you

0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:06.600
<v Speaker 2>sound a little bit insane that you're putting all these

0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:10.000
<v Speaker 2>things down, But it's the it's these things together that

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:11.600
<v Speaker 2>make you feel insecure in a relationship.

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:14.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but I say technology has come so far. Like

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:17.000
<v Speaker 3>fifty years ago, you could only cheat on someone physically.

0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:18.919
<v Speaker 3>Now you've got you can like flo float with someone

0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:19.760
<v Speaker 3>on LinkedIn, you know.

0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:22.520
<v Speaker 2>So you have to move the bar, or you can

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:24.519
<v Speaker 2>just appear to be single, like a lot of people

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:27.639
<v Speaker 2>who are like cheating or keeping their options open. They

0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:30.160
<v Speaker 2>may not cross the line yet, but they're appearing single

0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:32.360
<v Speaker 2>online because they're keeping their options open.

0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:36.240
<v Speaker 1>But I think it's so subjective to essentially it is

0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:39.000
<v Speaker 1>your partner crossing a boundary that you have put up.

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:41.519
<v Speaker 1>Have you said this isn't cool and they're secretly doing

0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:44.119
<v Speaker 1>it anyway? Then they then there's something else going on, right,

0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:48.519
<v Speaker 1>But liking of a photo here and there, to me, fine, nothing,

0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:51.320
<v Speaker 1>who cares. But if you've gone onto one person's page

0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:55.240
<v Speaker 1>on Instagram, you've liked ten photos, you've sent some fire flames,

0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:56.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, you've done all the stuff, you.

0:02:56.880 --> 0:02:57.520
<v Speaker 2>Did the groundwork.

0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.200
<v Speaker 1>You're trying to get their attention. The only reason you

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:01.720
<v Speaker 1>go back on people is to get their attention. So

0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 1>something else sus is going on.

0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:05.120
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it's micro cheating as much as it

0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:08.360
<v Speaker 3>is like pre cheating. It's like doing that. It's like

0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 3>pre cheating because if we're going to throw around terms

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:12.560
<v Speaker 3>because it's like technically not the cheat, but you'll lay

0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:15.240
<v Speaker 3>in the land, you're sewing the seed for one day,

0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:18.120
<v Speaker 3>potentially needing another person, or if you decide to physically

0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 3>cheat that you've got people there ready to go.

0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:22.959
<v Speaker 2>I think, okay, Ultimately, I just think if you're already

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:24.960
<v Speaker 2>feeling this insecure in a relationship, if you're looking for

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:27.200
<v Speaker 2>all these signs, if your partner's doing all these things,

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:29.480
<v Speaker 2>and you need a label for micro cheating, it's probably

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:30.560
<v Speaker 2>not the relationship to be in.

0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:32.400
<v Speaker 1>Keep your five flames to yourself.

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:34.800
<v Speaker 2>I really in your monogamous relationship.

0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 3>I was really hoping it was cheating for ants, micro cheating.

0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry to I'm.

0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:41.880
<v Speaker 3>To break into that. It's not.

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 1>It's not cheating for tiny little all

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.560
<v Speaker 2>Right, Well, coming up, I want to know when did

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 2>you put your foot in it get yourself into a

0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:50.720
<v Speaker 2>bit of trouble if it were, well, not in the

0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 2>micro cheating, but just like, when did you make a

0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 2>mistake
