Is this cheating?

My long term bf was “making fun of” this girl in their biology class constantly for months. Every time he talked about this lesson, he just said he made fun of this girl during it and they joked around.
I told him to stop as it makes me uncomfortable and that the girl would think they’re flirting and catch feelings. My bf argued with me and said it wasn’t flirting and that they were just making fun of each other.

Skipping forward, this girl now has a crush on him and I said it’s his fault because he flirted with her and caused it. His whole biology class was laughing and shipping them together, despite the fact we’ve been publicly together for years.
He’s now mad at me for my reaction.

Is this cheating?

it's not cheating, but that doesn't mean it isn't wrong. you have every right to be mad. you need to get your boyfriend to make it clear to this girl that he doesn't have feelings for her, and if he refuses to do that, then you need to have a serious talk about whether he's right for you

not cheating, but he led her on which isn't fair to you first and foremost as his girlfriend but also to the girl either. he knew what he was doing and he enjoyed the attention most likely from the both of you. he needs to tell this girl that he thought they were just friends and if he refuses then you have your answer. sorry that this happened to you girl, I hope you're well!! <3

He sounds a bit of an idiot and not very mature, are you sure you want to be with someone like that

about the attention part, i can almost guarantee it's this. i'm changing now (not quite there yet but i'm close), but about a year ago this is absolutely something i'd do just for attention. when you're that kinda person, other people's feelings don't really come into the equation until the 4th step.
