What does “behaving romantically” mean, though? Can they go see a movie together? People become emotionally intimate with their friends, and it seems pretty fucked up to claim that’s cheating.
If your wife/husband would love someone else, but didn’t act on it, would you be fine with that? If not, then you understand emotionally cheating because that is why you don’t like it.
It probably depends on the person/couple. But if he were being emotionally intimate with the work colleague in a way he wasn’t with his actual spouse that could be problematic.
Assuming he’s not cheating with her (emotionally or physically), this is called having a friend.
Guys don’t have women friends bruh /s

That’s reductive and throws away most of the meaning. A cell mate is not just someone you live with.
