Is it immoral to kiss someone who is in a relationship?

Can you list a bad reason for not following stupid religions?

Advice: Kiss her. Don't let it go any further. Tell her she has to choose.

Sorted one way or the other. Either you're together or you're not.

Because you don't like their hair styles.

Yeah if the dude is a friend then don't. And not very cool if they happen to be engaged. Otherwise let nature take its course.

My wife had a boyfriend in Cali the summer I met her. We kind of hit it off as friends with benefits for a summer and I figured it was over when said BF returned. Some confusing times ensued, but she dumped him.

Whenever you have to ask, Is it immoral? It usually is.

You're married to a cheater. Think she won't cheat on you? I was once "said BF" Actually, the term in my case was fiancé. The girl in question did exactly to me what your wife did.3 years later, divorced the guy she dumped me for because...wait for it......she met someone else.I've lost track of the soap opera since, but not marrying her was the best thing I ever did.

For all you moralizers...

"I don't think that word means what you think it means."

It is immoral only if you don't take it all the way. Otherwise you are just teasing the poor girl.

I love all these cute little phrases that some of you folks use. Are you really so intellectually vacuous that such cuteitudes carry any weight in your thinking? Or is it just plain cuteness for cuteness' sake.

Either way, you are SO adorable!

Slippery slippery slippery

Big Bump! Mainly because I'm bored, but also because everyone likes it when OP reports back. . .

We ended up in a secret relationship. Only my three flatmates and her best friend knew about it. I gave her an ultimatum to break it off with her boyfriend but she never did. I stopped seeing her for about a month but then she came over and kept crying and made me feel guilty and I relented.

Anyway,come summer we were going our separate ways and decided to "just be friends". I told her that in September if she wanted to stay with her boyfriend then I would stay quiet, but if she was going to break up with him I thought she should tell him the truth about the past year. Not because I wanted her to be hated by him, but so I could finally stop biting my tongue around my friends/family whenever her name came up (everyone knows we're 'friends'). Plus I reckoned that if we were ever in a future relationship, I'd prefer not to lie about when we first started seeing each other.

Anyway, to cut a long story short they have broken up, but - surprise, surprise! - she didn't tell him shit. So I can't tell anyone either, although I don't really owe her a thing. I'm not really looking for advice, just venting. But opinions appreciated all the same.

You are describing a fallacy called "ethical relativism". If you take a college course in ethics then one of the first things they will teach you is that morality is NOT subjective and it does NOT vary from person to person or from society to society.

Quite true.
