Depends on the intent of the kiss. I like kissing my friends, and no, not just a peck on the lips, but a nice sensual kiss. It's not meant to lead to sex, its just my way of telling them i love them. In that context, it's certainly not cheating. Now, on the other hand, if it's followed by hot, naked, sweaty sex, then i'd have to call it cheating.
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.
I once had a friend who was not exactly a hooker, but she gave blowjobs and handjobs for money. We were once discussing what she does with customers and she would never kiss on the lips. She told me that whenever she is with a "customer" and they try to kiss her, she would simply put her neck in the way and take it there, she wouldn't let them kiss her lips. I dont understand the logic very well, but I guess a kiss for women means a lot of emotions that she doesn't have for the guy, she just wants to do what she does and get her money??
A kiss is but a kiss. I don't think the act alone is cheating. Sure he'd have a lot of explaining to do, but it wouldn't be cheating.
It would definitely depend on circumstance.
Apart from being a loaded question, in which case a kiss would be considered cheating but in certain circumstances then I think that a kiss can be seen as a indication of respect and mutual affection. Even a passionate kiss can be just that, an expression of ones feelings. The actions after that are what decided if you are cheating or not.

If it's a serious kiss, you know deep mind numbing, then yes well you unless you didn't expect it. If it's just a quick peck on the lips, you know dad to daughter, grandpa to his daughter, granddaughter, or friend, well no.
Well that's just my opinion, sorry if you don't like.

Yes, no ifs or buts.
The only exception would be if it was a 3sum and your partner was there.

I think it's interesting that lots of people say if their partner kisses someone of the same sex they don't consider it cheating.
If they were honest about it, I would be hurt but we could work through it. However some trust was broken there. It might take time to get over it.
A kiss is cheating unless it's;
1) His mom or sister.
2) it's on the cheek and he's French
I do consider it cheating. Although, if it was just a kiss, I probably wouldnt end the relationship over it. It would definitely cause me to put my guard up a bit and lose a bit of trust in him.
Circumstances matter and from the vibe in the OP it sounds like replies can potentially skew ones interpretation or emotions in a serious real life situation so I'm not going to put forward an opinion.
Never draw conclusions.
And be wary of who you trust. People are by default honest or nice. People who want to cause trouble only need to start a rumor.
to me is more cheating a kiss, than sex
If it's a peck on the cheek no, but a full on passionate kiss to me is cheating. The only person who gets to kiss me on the lips is my husband.
Kiss on the cheek is ok - anything else not really.
I'd have to say yes , kissing is cheating
Depends on the kiss. If its a little peck on the lips than No its not cheating. But if its a full on sensual kiss than Yes its most definitely cheating. Kissing is very intimate, even more so than sex in many ways. At least to me it is.
Just read all the answers and they pretty much cover it. Yes, no, and maybe. The question said to forget the circumstances, but the circumstances make all the difference. So a sensual kiss is cheating absolutely cheating... If your married or in a committed relationship. If your single and searching a kiss is a good indicator if there will be more.
If you get caught don't pull that BS saying, "it was an accident! I didn't mean it!"
Accident? Really? He tripped and your lips collided? Pleeeease.
Yes, I would consider it cheating but, if that is all that happened, it wouldn't necessarily end the relationship. It would be hard to believe that a kiss is all that ever happenedthough, people rarely ever get caught their first time.
