If you get an arranged/forced marriage in a 3rd world country and the US government doesn’t recognize the marriage, would finding a new partner count as cheating to you?

Some third world countries have patriarchy and don’t allow women to refuse marriage or even initiate divorce so I say it doesn’t count as cheating

Idgaf what the us government says or if you’re legally married. If you’re in a closed relationship then it’s cheating, if not then it’s not

If it’s a forced marriage then no, you didn’t want to be in that relationship in the first place so if you are now seeking a new partner then you clearly didn’t make a connection or anything

Arranged marriage don't count imo, majority of them do not remotely like their spouse. Also it's a bs cultural thing

Like 90% I would say yes but there are circumstances where I would say no

but does it count if it’s a relationship they never consented to and were forced into? is a closed relationship not the result of consent and agreement between the two involved parties?
