No, I see nothing here that says you are cheating. Unless you want to include cheating yourself from the benefits of a good and loving relationship... There are people who have a different outlook and call flirting with the opposite sex cheating, but it is not cheating. Cheating is when you actually have sex with someone else besides your spouse or SO.

It is interesting that you feel this way.

I don't think any of them are cheating, although flirting with people on the Internet pushes some boundaries.
Sharing intimate details with opposite-sex friends might push it, too, depending on what the details are and how long you've been with your SO. Regardless, I don't think intimate details about your SO should ever be shared with an opposite-sex friend, or really anyone. "He's great in bed" is one thing. "He does this thing where he..." is something else entirely, and off-limits. So is complaining about your SO to them. Then you venture into "emotional affair" territory.
Creating a profile on a dating site depends on the reason and whether your SO knows about it. I did that not long ago to get some ammo on someone, and my SO knew about it. In fact, he suggested it. "You should run the guy's email/screen name through the personals and see if he's there." Someone was trolling a board my SO on, and someone found the troll that way, embarrassed the heck out of him, and the guy stopped trolling. And let's say I also got the ammo I needed, too.

C. creating a profile on a dating site and E flirting with people on the internet w/ no intention of meeting.
These would be deal breakers for me, IDK if I'd call it cheating. Cheating to me is the actual act, however, why stick around if disrespectful things are happening that often lead to the actual act. I don't like F either. It come down to respect. But it doesn't matter what the label is, it is what is acceptable to each individual that matters.

I'm sure opinions differ. Call it whatever you want, as far as I'm concerned it is not cheating, it is just being stupid. But in this day and age that is pretty common... To me Cosmopolitan is not an authority on anything.

I am not disagreeing with you. I am just saying "interesting you feel this way."
