What is Microcheating? - Blog from our partners at Hulse Law Firm

Is It Just Harmless Flirting—or Something More?

In today’s hyper-connected world, not every betrayal involves a secret rendezvous or a dramatic confession. Sometimes, it’s subtler—an old flame’s name popping up in private messages, a growing emotional attachment to someone outside the marriage, or those “just friendly” interactions that suddenly don’t feel so innocent. These moments, while often dismissed, can quietly erode the foundation of trust in a relationship.

This growing gray area in modern relationships is known as microcheating—a term that’s stirring real conversations among couples, therapists, and attorneys alike.
