The concept of microcheating has gained traction with the rise of remote work, where subtle online interactions are often perceived as infidelity. Activities like liking a co-worker's social media photo or messaging them can build emotional connections outside one’s primary relationship, leading to potential trust issues. Experts like William Schroeder and Abby Medcalf highlight that while some couples may consider these actions innocuous, others view them as a breach of trust, indicating that relationship boundaries have become more complex in the digital age.
Liking a co-worker's photo on social media or messaging them can be considered microcheating, as it may build emotional bonds outside of one’s primary relationship.
As remote work increases, digital relationships create more opportunities for behaviors that could be seen as infidelity, often with lower perceived risk.
Microcheating encompasses actions that might seem minor, such as social media interactions, but can threaten relationship boundaries and trust.
There's no universally right or wrong in relationships; it ultimately depends on each couple's personal definitions and boundaries regarding what constitutes cheating.
