Those are still cheating ~!!
"And if you're sharing your deepest thoughts or secrets with this third person that you're not sharing with your spouse, that's emotional infidelity."
A recently coined phenomenon, emotional infidelity is loosely defined as any time a person - whether an online pal, a colleague or a former sweetheart - becomes as important or more important than your partner.
If anyone interested

My Boxing Day Shooting Trial collection - Canoe
Free under 3 gun bans
A man arrested in the Yonge St. shootout that left Toronto teen Jane Creba dead was under three gun bans following convictions at the time of the Boxing Day incident, court documents show.
Wearing a white Tracy McGrady Orlando Magic jersey, Jeremiah Valentine, 24, appeared briefly in Old City Hall court charged with second-degree murder and was remanded in custody until Tuesday.
The issue of weapons bans and lax bail releases have been raised by critics of the justice system recently. Firearm bans usually stem from weapon, drug or violent crime convictions.
Fighting charges
One of Valentine's lawyers, Iryna Revutsky said her client "will be contesting these charges.
"At this stage, we certainly don't know what the allegations are as we have no disclosure," said Revutsky, who represents him along with co-counsel Edward Sapiano.
"I think he's very disturbed by the allegations and he's concerned, and so is his family," Revutsky said.
Valentine is also charged with aggravated assault while using a firearm for the Boxing Day wounding of David Audette, Su Jeyie, Dorian Wallace, Jevoy Johnson and Pui Wiu.
Revutsky is defending Valentine on several, unrelated allegations, including robbery of a Toronto man using an imitation firearm only three days before the Dec. 26 crime that stunned Torontonians.
In and out of court
Valentine was arrested on that robbery in mid-January and was released on a promise to appear, the least stringent of conditions.
He and co-accused Junior Leonard Rodney face a trial in January over the robbery.
Court documents show Valentine has been in and out of court since 2004 on drugs and weapons charges.
Police arrested and charged several men in the Creba case in June in a city-wide sweep and vowed further arrests. Two other men are also charged with second-degree murder along with a 17-year-old, who cannot be named.

Courts Bureau
An innocent bystander injured in the gun battle that killed schoolgirl Jane Creba says she saw flashes seemingly coming from a man's chest before she felt her leg go numb.
Jeyie Su testified at the murder trial of a man who can only be identified as J.S.R. that when she was 19 she was walking south in front of the Foot Locker on Yonge St. with her friend Helen Yiu when she saw a group of three or four black men in front of them on the crowded sidewalk.
"They were talking in a loud voice," she said today, her testimony translated by a Mandarin interpreter.
One of them was wearing a sports vest and a hat, while the other a leather jacket, she said.
"I didn't pay too much attention, I was talking to my friend," Su told prosecutor Kerry Hughes.
The man in the sports vest was about to turn and leave and then suddenly she saw flashes of light coming from the middle of his body, she said.
"I felt numb on my leg. I also heard the noise of pomp, pomp, pomp," she said.
"I fell but not completely to the ground. I tried to walk slowly to the inside of a store," she added.
She held onto the door to support herself, feeling only numbness and not pain, Su said.
A man rushed to comfort her. She didn't dare to check if she was bleeding until paramedics arrived, which they did within seconds, she said.
Su was taken to Sunnybrook hospital with bullet wounds to her right calf and ankle. She had two operations to remove the bullets and to put a screw in her ankle, which is still there.
It took her two years to recover, she said.
J.S.R. has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder in the 15-year-old schoolgirl's death, to five weapons charges and to six counts of attempted murder of six people injured at the scene, including Su.
The trial continues.
