Have you ever heard of this . Its a thing. Not a big, big one like actual cheating but a little sort of mini version thats real and can be just as hurtful in its own right.

Giving a waitress or a bartender a really large chip tip just because they are good looking. Holding onto maybe a piece of clothing from an ex that reminds you of them. Repeatedly liking an exs Instagram Post or constantly texting someone else on the sly. So its not physical cheating per se but its doing Little Things that your current flame would certainly not approve of all things that indicate that maybe your mind and your heart are somewhere else.
