Between 3D-sex chat rooms and incognito messaging apps, sneaking around is getting a whole lot sneakier.
Although they weren’t invented for this reason, the Internet, social media, and apps have ended up making it insanely easy for people in committed relationships to cheat. Constant tech advances have also introduced so many new ways to stray that it’s almost impossible to have any sort of standard code for what is and isn’t infidelity anymore.
“There are all sorts of definitions now,” says New York-based Bryony Cole, Founder and host of the Future Of Sex podcast. “This is the first time in history that you can be lying in bed next to your partner, and cheating!” (May we add here: according to a recent survey, Indians spend more than 17 hours per week on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram—the highest in the world!)
Also, coming soon: ‘sexy’ tech like virtual reality and robotics that will blur the lines of faithfulness even more. Here’s your road map.
