In regards to a relationship, you are helping someone commit a betrayal. You are knowingly and intentinally helping violate the trust that a person has placed in the fidelity of the person you are cheating with. You have trespassed into a relationship. You have crossed a boundary that you do have the right to cross.

The trust has already been violated by the partner cheating with me. Even if I don't participate, her intention was to cheat anyway.

Legally this has been tested in court, and the party who you want to paint as the innocent had to pay a fortune to the spouse that was cheated on. They called alienation of affection. The court ruled that had the person who helped the partner cheat not encouraged the person to cheat, the cheating would not have happened.

That says more about the silliness of the law than about the moral decision the topic starter wanted our opinion on.
