Most people think cheating is black and white.
You either cheated or you didn’t.
But an affair rarely begins with the affair.
It begins with the text you wouldn’t want your spouse to see.
The flirtation you didn’t shut down.
The connection you’re keeping secret.
The attention you’re seeking outside your marriage.
One seemingly harmless choice becomes another. And another.
In this episode of The Loving Truth Podcast, I’m talking about micro-cheating: the small choices that may not technically qualify as an affair, but still chip away at trust and create distance in your marriage.
