When does digital interaction cross the line into relationship infidelity?
In short: The rise of digital communication has complicated traditional relationship boundaries. This video series examines whether online interactions constitute cheating, highlighting how partners often hold conflicting definitions of fidelity in the digital age.
Research by Andreas Vossler and Naomi Moller from The Open University’s School of Psychology indicates that online relationship boundaries are frequently blurred. Because there is no universal agreement on what constitutes infidelity, partners often struggle with uncertainty regarding which digital behaviors are acceptable.
The drama series 'I-SPY' uses a five-film narrative to explore these tensions through the lens of a couple navigating the aftermath of online activities. The project aims to foster awareness and public debate about the shifting definitions of loyalty and betrayal in modern relationships.
