@Holy water needed if the partner was assaulted against their will, such as if they were unconsious, restrained, or provided verbal rejection. no, it cannot be considered cheating. as you cannot accuse an assault victim of cheating.
if they did not put up opposition of any sort and just let it happen, it is a passive acceptance of infidelity.
if it happened willfully and in full acceptence, I would say "disgusting pig" would be an appropriate title.
Unfortunatly, cheating can be described as just engaging in a secondary romantic relationship. so a guy going to the strip club and getting a lap dance may not qualify as cheating as he is not entering into a romantic relationship. Making out with strangers while drunk at a bar cannot be defined as cheating but it still is an act of infidelity, shows clear dissrespect for their partner and most likely some level of dissatisfaction in the relationship or some other part of their life and you need to determine if you want to deal with that. I would not, you have worth as a person and their behavior doesn't acknowledge that.
If you think of a relationship as a piece of cloth, your contributions are the verticle threads, your partners the horizontal in the weave. each act of infidelity with another introduces a thread, not weaved together with yours, but seperate, your relationship has a run through it where you are present and your parter is not. they have a flimsy knot engaging with the other person, colorfull and passionate, noticable upon rememberance becaue of the difference, lost only if part of a storm of colors. where your partner was unfaithful, your singular threads are exposed, forming a weakness, threads wear faster than cloth. and it is your strands that break so when the piece unravels, our partner can find blame in you even though the origin of the break was their own actions.
