Technically, it's not cheating. But it's still not right. Unless it's your 5 year old cousin, I don't think you should be holding anyone else's hand except for yo mann. And girl, if you're doing that, you're leading on the other boy as well. I don't know.. I'd get pretty damn ticked if I heard my boyfriend was holding hands with another girl, wouldn't you?

Well, not really.
but its not the right thing to do when you have a boyfriend.
You should probably tell your boyfriend,before he finds out on his own , and gets really upset.

well...
uh...
no, it isn't cheating...
but it is flirting...
and you definately shouldn't be doing that w/ a person other than your b/f...
unless you are holding your little cousins hand while crossing the street...lol

personally, i would get pretty pissed off...
i wouldn't take the risk...
you never know what the consequences might be...
if it really bothered him, he might even break up w/ you...
be careful!!!!

hope this helps!!!!!

I pretty much agree with everyone else. In my boyfriends eye's it probably would be cheating. Hell, I think getting/giving a phone number from someone else is cheating. But exactly what a lot of people said - Do you have feelings for the guy you'd be holding hands with, or is just like a little boy? A little boy, and he'd definitly be going out of hands with being angry, but someone your age/older kind of makes sence. Odds are, I wouldn't do it. If you did already think about if it meant something, because if it did, dump your boyfriend. That's cheating if you like someone else, and wrong.

Good luck. :]

LadyH answered Tuesday July 24 2007, 8:15 pm:
In my eyes, yes. I wouldn't want to hold hands with any other guy when I'm going out with my boyfriend. I guess my question for you is, why would you hold hands with another guy? Even if he was just a friend, most people don't hold hands with their guy friends. Although it doesn't seem that "bad" to me, I still see it as a sign of affection that should be shared with only your boyfriend. If you don't have a boyfriend, I think you have the right to hold hands with anyone & everyone.

ASAPcamille answered Tuesday July 24 2007, 7:37 pm:
It depends on how you feel about him. If you feel strongly about him- it is cheating. I, honestly, think it is cheating either way- whether you like him or not. Holding hands is what you are supposed to do with your boyfriend, to show loyalty.

Hope I helped.

Aubrey answered Tuesday July 24 2007, 7:33 pm:
It depends on how you think of this other boy. do you consider him just a friend, or are there other feelings there. if there are then either follow them and break up with your boyfriend, or stop holding this boys hand, because it can, and probably will lead to other things. but if you do consider this other boy just a friend, then holding his hand isn't cheating, but i would recommend telling your boyfriend about it, so he isn't surprised if he ever sees you two together.

Ok first things first you need to confront him about it, dont go pointing fingers. I dont believe he is cheating, but he could be confused on his sexuality. Or they could just be having a laugh, either way confront him and find out chick

yours sencirly beebee

i hope i have helped

It would be cheating if you have feelings for the other boy, and I don't know why you would hold his hand, unless you had feelings for him.

it woul donly be cheaying if your dating that boy but if your'e just friends it really wouldn't matter as long as it doesn't seem as if you are dating him.

BABiiExCAKES answered Tuesday July 24 2007, 5:49 pm:
i think it is considered cheating, because you would have to have some kind of feelings for him in order to hold his hand. try putting yourself in your boyfriends situation if you saw that he was holding hands with another girl, how would you feel? would you consider it cheating? or would you be perfectly okay with it? hopefully i helped you sweetheart! :]

Razhie answered Tuesday July 24 2007, 4:58 pm:
Ask your boyfriend.

I wouldn't think it was cheating unless you were actively trying to persue or flirt with the guy you were holding hands with but best to ask your boyfriend what he thinks about it. It's really only his and yours opinions that matter.

If you feel it isn't right, maybe it isn't, and you could simply stop without even bothering to ask you boyfriend, but if you think it's just fine, run by your boyfriend just so you guys can be clear with eachother.

Sima answered Tuesday July 24 2007, 4:56 pm:
I don't understand why you would do it in the first place. The boy that you're holding hands with may think that you want to pursue a romantic relationship, and your boyfriend might take it the wrong way. My suggestion would be just to not hold hands. Why not hold hands with your boyfriend?

Hope I helped. ♥
