Relationships depend on trust, but is trust changing the definition of infidelity today? While earlier only physical cheating was considered real cheating, now many Bollywood actresses are calling emotional cheating as an equally serious crime.
This topic was recently discussed on Kajol and Twinkle Khanna’s talk show, “Too Much with Kajol and Twinkle”. Kajol, Twinkle and Karan Johar believe that emotional cheating hurts more deeply than physical cheating. Kajol said that if one’s heart starts beating for someone else, then the relationship can already be considered over. Twinkle said that a relationship is not just physical but also about emotional connection.
On the contrary, Janhvi Kapoor had a different opinion. He clearly states that infidelity, whether emotional or physical, is wrong and both have the potential to destroy a relationship. Meanwhile, Deepika Padukone’s old statement has gone viral again. She previously said that people are taught from childhood that cheating is a sin, but from a therapist’s perspective, it’s important to understand why someone does it. Deepika also admitted that while dating Ranveer Singh, she met a few other people, but remained attached to him in her heart and mind. He was heavily trolled on social media for this statement.
Is loyalty of the heart more important than physical loyalty?
According to relationship experts, physical cheating is not just an act; It has a profound effect on confidence, emotions and mental well-being. A person experiencing cheating begins to feel inferior to others, may experience anger, anxiety, and depression. It is normal to grow distant in a relationship after a trust breakup. Some couples try to save the relationship through therapy and open communication, but the question remains: Isn’t physical infidelity considered a deal breaker today? Perhaps every relationship is different, but one thing is clear: whether it’s emotional or physical, cheating leaves a deep impression on both.
