The other day my friends and I got into a debate about a question:
If you Roleplay a romance, such as NarutoxSakura or RukiaxIchigo, while in a serious relationship is it cheating?

We had a variety of opinions and they are:
Opinion One: Yes, it is cheating. Even though it is fantasy it is still a form of emotional and mental unfaithfullness.
Opinion Two: As long as you don't cyber it isn't cheating. Anything besides that is okay.
Opinion Three: It's all fantasy so it doesn't count as cheating and is okay.

None of us could agree so I thought; Why not ask the Gaian Community?! So here it is!

Tell me which opinion you agree with and why!

How about opinion four?
It's not as if you're self inserting yourself, which would be true unfaithfulness, fantasy or no. That would be emotionally unfaithful, which has been characterized and recognized by the law as cheating.
Really, it's no different than writing a story about two people being in love. It would delve into the creepy for there to be cybering, regardless of the fact that it isn't a self insert. You'd still have to put thought into the fantasy, and like as not, you'd base it on your own interests.
However, creepy or not, it's still not cheating.

As long as it's two characters who are clearly not yourself, the person in a serious relationship, it's okay.

I think closest to my opinion is Opinion Three, but it didn't really have any sort of elaboration to it, so I added my own reasoning. Sooo...there you go.

It is not real! You are play a role! it's not like you are posting as your self and posting something like "I will love you till the end of time!" you are posting as a charater, NOT YOURSELF!

So what I am trying to say is it is not real so it's not cheating.

it may not be real, but in all honesty, it depends on the guy(or girl). Some may find it a case of cheating, while others dont bother with it. It is all about perspective. I for one dont think it counts as cheating because it is like a story(as said above). But it still is about perspective and how your significant other takes the whole role playing romance.
