This topic is english-only./Ce sujet* est en anglais seulement.

Hello !

First, I'd like to explain the reasons for the posting of a topic in English. Well, I'm an English student. I often read and listen to English speaking media, whether it is a YouTube video or a press article. I wanted some subject of controversy but also a topic where anyone could express their opinion without having to be long or complicated to inaugurate the serie "What about this?". This topic is just here to give you content to read and write a little in English if you're not here to deeply argue.
You can make mistakes, I myself must have done some in this post. Just try! The only mandatory thing : to speak English.
D'abord, j'aimerais expliquer les raisons de la publication d'un topic en anglais. Eh bien, je suis étudiante en anglais. J'écoute et lis souvent des médias anglophones, que ce soit une vidéo YouTube ou un article de presse. Je voulais un sujet controversé mais aussi un sujet où n'importe qui pourrait exprimer leur opinion sans que ça ait besoin d'être long et compliqué, pour inaugurer cette série de topics "What about this?". Ce topic est là pour vous donner matière à vous exprimer un peu en anglais si vous n'êtes pas là pour argumenter en profondeur.
Les erreurs ne sont pas interdites. J'ai dû en faire plus d'une en écrivant ce topic. Essayez ! Seule chose obligatoire, parler anglais.

Precise in your answers if you want to be corrected if you make mistake that other might have seen./Précisez dans vos réponses si vous voulez être corrigés si vous faites des erreurs que d'autres auraient pu remarquer.

So, I encountered a magazine article (yes seen from a Pewdiepie ytb video, it was just in my recommendations, I'm not subscribed to his channel, I'm not 12 😡 /hj) where it's talking about "micro-cheating".

“Micro-cheating refers to small acts that are almost cheating”
In the article you'll read some, if not all of them.

If this is micro-cheating, in your opinion what does it say on the relationships where it happens? Does it necessarily lead to cheating? Is it a lack of love for one's significant other? What do you think? Is there micro-cheatings of the list that you consider should not be here?

Yeah so micro-cheating is just cheating you don't want to assumed or a blurry line between cheating or not

But in this article I consider some points more as gentlemanlike than micro cheating

It's not always being gentleman, but it just can be a guy who's very friendly to a girl that he likes

I would also add 5, because there are many other reasons than cheating for a guy to have someone under a fake name in his contacts...

For me micro-cheating is a dummy thing because you have sentiments or not and if not if you keep resting with your girl-boy.friend and you go elsewhere yes it's cheating

for me : you cheat or not dot

I think they wanted to say if you don't let your partner know who it is. Because a fake name is one thing, hiding who it is and the reason why they have a fake name is a whole other thing.

I rather agree with that.

I think "micro-cheating" is a reassurance thing for people that don't know about love or are not conscious about the toxic relationships they could have.

Imo it's simply bullshit.

You're either in love or you're not. There's only blurry lines for the ones that don't want take responsibilities and are too afraid to be alone and prefer to be with their partner with whom they don't share love.

Yes, but the problem can also come from the other. She can refuse for example that her boyfriend has girl friends, and in this case I can understand he comes to name these friends under a false name. It's still not a healthy relationship, but I wouldn't call it cheating in this case (or similar)
