Debunking Microcheating

💡 Dan Savage critiques the concept of "microcheating," arguing it's a manufactured trend often promoted by couples counselors seeking business.
⚠️ He suggests that behaviors labeled as microcheating, like flirting, should be viewed as the partner not acting on temptation, rather than proof of wrongdoing.
🚩 Cruelty and inconsideration, such as flirting in front of a partner who dislikes it, are presented as valid reasons to exit a relationship, not microcheating.
