Basically, if there's no ring of some kind on your finger, even if it's a 'friendship' ring I've seen on long-term gf's, then there are no rules. Since cheating is braking a rule to gain an advantage, if there are no rules, no act can be cheating.
It's basically up to the couple to define terms. There is no ring on my finger, but I'm pretty sure that if I slept with another man, or if he slept with another woman, it would kill our relationship, because it would be a violation of the terms of our relationship. We aren't married, but we have both committed verbally to be monogamous.
