Is this cheating? Dating Apps, Exes, Emotional Affairs & Secret Texts

from Come Curious · host Florence Bark & Reed | QCODE

Is subscribing to someone's OnlyFans cheating? What about texting an ex, keeping a dating app "just to look", or fantasising about someone else during sex? In this special watershed episode, we're diving into the murky grey areas of modern relationships with a boundary-pushing cheating quiz that sparks some surprisingly revealing conversations. Together, we unpack the behaviours that sit between loyalty and betrayal, exploring emotional affairs, secret crushes, dating apps, hidden messages, workplace flirtations, exes, social media boundaries, and what "cheating" actually means in monogamous and non-monogamous relationships. The truth? There isn't one universal definition. What feels harmless to one person might feel devastating to another. This episode is designed to help you better understand your own boundaries, communicate your expectations, and start the conversations many couples avoid until it's too late. ⚠️ This is a Watershed episode. Free listeners get the first half of the conversation, but if you want the full debate, all our answers, and the deeper discussions around ENM, trust, honesty and relationship agreements, you'll need to join us on Patreon. Whether you're happily monogamous, exploring ethical non-monogamy, or simply wondering where your own line is, this episode will leave you with plenty to think about.

Northern Sass and Southern Class Tay and Ani Come sit in on girl talk with Tay and Ani as we discuss life in Texas, girl math, food, wine and roasting each other. Explicit BALDERDAWGS Several John Doe's Old high school friends decide to come back together after 30 years to create a Podcast. Bad idea? Explicit I am Consciously Curious Victor Chan I am Consciously Curious is a Chicago based podcast that dissects passionate individuals in various industries. The goal is to share their stories to inspire you to cultivate meaning within your own space. If you are interested in coming on or know someone that would be great for the podcast, please message us on fb/ig: @iamconsciouslycurious Explicit Shut Up I Love It Sasha Feiler and Joe Cabello Many years ago, Sasha Feiler and Joe Cabello met in line for an improv show. They were young, dumb, and full of it. What followed were comedy shows so explicit, “genitalia” was practically a term of endearment.Fast forward 5 dogs, 6 cats, and way too many weird inside jokes later, Sasha and Joe are no longer young or dumb—but they’re still brimming with you-know-what. Here, they’ve teamed up to bring you a podcast where they interview a guest who passionately defends something universally hated, misunderstood, forgotten, overlooked, Mandela-effected, canceled—you name it. The key? They LOVE it. From toupees... to B-movies... to aliens, psychedelics, and the occasional surprise character, Sasha and Joe are here to spread love to the world that birthed them (but maybe should’ve used protection).So come and get that love because no one else will give it to you like we do.Also, don’t forget to check out the Patreon Bonus version of the show:https://www.patreon.com/c/ShutUpILoveItP Explicit
