~ general comment about the current topic ~ If it's possible to "cheat" in a sexless relationship, then someone, somewhere, is a major narcissist. I was in a relationship that wound down, with the two of us friendzoning each other over time. One day she walked in on me watching porn, and got pissed, yelling at me how much of a pervert I was. But a couple days later, she came up to me and said, "I feel really bad that I yelled at you about the porn. I know I'm not giving you sex. That wasn't fair of me." This may sound strange, but I'm really proud of that breakup. I chose well. She's someone who respected me and cared about me until the very end, and I think she'd say nice things about me if anyone asked her. Also, we were both quite clear about the fact that we were no longer able to give each other a complete relationship. If we hadn't split up, we would have explored an open relationship. What kind of person demands that a partner be faithful while refusing to slake the partner's desires in any way?
