In this episode of Legacy Journeys, Liv and Carlton tackle a big relationship question: Is emotional cheating worse than physical cheating? We dig into our own stories and talk about what it really means to cross emotional and physical lines—even when you're committed.💔 Part 1: Emotional vs Physical Cheating DefinedWe start by defining emotional cheating. It’s when you share your heart and secrets with someone else. Maybe you’re not kissing them... but you're letting them into your feelings or leaning on them in ways your partner should. We also talk about ways to spot emotional cheating—like texting someone when you're upset or turning to them for comfort instead of your partner.Next, we explain physical cheating—when you physically cross the line. It's more obvious: kissing, touching, or sleeping with someone who isn’t your partner. We talk about how this kind of cheating breaks trust fast and why it's easier to spot... but we ask: Does it hurt more than emotional betrayal?⚖️ Part 2: Emotional Cheating vs. Physical Cheating —Which Hurts More?This is the heart of the episode. We share our honest thoughts on whether emotional cheating can be just as bad—or even worse—than physical cheating. We explore real-life situations and the gut feelings they bring up. We talk about how it feels when someone emotionally leaves the relationship, even if they never get physical with someone else.🍃 Part 3: We Explore Grey Areas & Social Media Traps“Work wife” or “work husband”DMs to your exFlirtatious emojis, etc.🛠️ Part 4: How to Protect Your RelationshipWe offer real tools to help:Relationship advice on discussing boundaries before problems startHow to ask your partner, “Are we emotionally safe with each other?”Tips for rebuilding trust after any kind of betrayal💬 We Want to Hear from YOU!👇 Drop a comment after you watch and let us know:Have you ever felt emotional cheating in a relationship?What hurts more: emotional betrayal or physical betrayal?Which part of your relationship do you guard most?We read every comment and love hearing your experiences.
