Kissing on the lips - cheating?

Does kissing on the lips - no tongues involved, constitute cheating (if it's with someone other than ones gf/bf - obviously) ??

Depends really. I wouldn't be happy if my bf kissed another girl on the lips but I have a friend at uni who kisses me on the lips (when drunk) & it doesn't mean anything. I kiss relatives on the lips but when its with a friend it is different. Its kinda unneccessary tho isn't it? Surely if you're just friends a kiss on the cheek will do & if you aren't just friends then thats an issue itself!

I think that it depends on the relationship. A good way to look at it, is that if you thought it would be cheating if your partner kissed someone else on the lips, then chances are he/she will think the same as you. In my own relationship, then it would most definitly would be cheating, without a doubt. I don't really see the reason for you doing so though, and if you have to ask on an internet forum then deep down you aren't totally comfortable with it.

Agreed.

Was it a one off or is this a friend of yours who greets you in this manner? Are you attracted to this person?

In order, that would, would not, and would, constitute cheating!

I think that the thought of wanting to cheat is bad news enough in itself.

Yes that would be cheating in my book.

I think it depends on the kiss, the circumstance and the person.
I'm in a relationship and I've kissed someone on the lips but it was still more than just a peck...it was cheating without a doubt (my bf knows, we've talked, so anyone feeling high and mighty just go **** yourself I don't need a lecture)

I think between friends a quick peck on the lips is fine though, I do that with friends and my bf doesn't mind.

If the kiss is lingering, more intense, involving an embrace its cheating
A quick on second peck,... not a problem

I'd say yes, it probably is cheating, because kissing on the lips is a step further than 'just friendly'... and I can't think of a reason why it'd be necessary to kiss someone other than your boyfriend or girlfriend like that. I'd feel uncomfortable doing it anyway, I'd feel so guilty, which means I'd class it as cheating.

Good point Rosalily. I think a good way to tell whether you have cheated is to ask yourself: "Am I feeling guilty?"

i would say so, yes

It depends on the context. A jokey kiss between friends- nope, not cheating as far as im concerned, doesnt matter even if its the opposite sex

A sensual kiss where there is obviously sexual tension- yes, that is

It depends on the kiss. Im a pretty friendly person and with my best friend we sometimes say goodbye and such with a quick kiss on the lips because we dont see each other all that much.I mean how i would kiss my family. However if you are talking about a full on kiss and the only difference is that there is no toungue then i would definately classify that as cheating.

Yep, because you wanted to get that close to someone else. My opinion, of course.

Sorry, but why would you want to kiss your mates on the lips in a jokey way? :confused:

Yes it's cheating.

OP

I think it's cheating too. I was merely surveying.

I consider it cheating personally because I feel bad about it, and for me friends kiss on the cheeks not on the lips. I guess it does depend vastly on the person, but as I said not for me...

I have accidently kissed someone on the lips... and yes it can happen. I kissed her on the cheek and she started to face me and my lips slid across hers. didnt last more than a few seconds, so in theory you could argue that it was cheating. Especially as about 30 mins before hand this same girl said she had feelings for me and because i was drunk... very drunk I said the feeling was mutual. Personally I think it was cheating and felt bad about it even though it was an accident. My girlfriend doesnt know this because she is one of those people that dont like to know :s, + as far as I am concerned it was an accident... no harm done

[edit: Hope my girlfriend doesnt see this]

^^ 'a few seconds' can't be accidental.
