Social Media & Cheating
Social media’s explosion into our day-to-day is pretty wild. It’s transformed how we connect, share, and sometimes, stray.
With apps on our phones, reaching out to someone across the world or just across the street is a breeze. A quick message or comment, and boom! You’ve established a connection.
With the swipe of a finger, opening doors to secret chats and locked conversations is easier than ever.
Privacy settings meant to shield us from unwanted attention sometimes provide the perfect cover for sneaky behavior, making digital cheating tempting.

Many say app culture has backtracked our values, offering platforms where infidelity is hardly frowned upon. These tools make it feel casual and accessible, steering some down paths they might usually avoid.
