hey everyone please I need help

Am i overthinking or really cheating on my partner I love him to death

So I had male friend I had never ever feelings to him I considered him as a Bother, he always pressured me to send him a photo and manipulated me to give him my face photo because he used my weakness ( I cannot say no ) ( the people pleasing effect )he knew that well and really felt uncomfortable with his requests and he told me that it’s okay and make excuses to give him and I’m profoundly feel pressured and uncomfortable then he pressured me more and my mind turned off and I sent him pic only my face and neck for 15 s and disappeared then I’m feeling too guilty about what I did to my partner, after that I felt that friend is selfish even when i showed my uncomfortable to sending but keep pressuring me and feel confused

I felt hating to this friend and then write him a message that he didn’t respect my limits and boundaries and used my weaknesses then block him totally from everything and I feel well after him being blocked

Am I cheating??

the first thing is your relationship with this ‘friend’… it doesn’t sound healthy from my outside perspective, no one should manipulate you into anything! And no, sending a photo of your face to a friend who you don’t fancy is not cheating. You could tell your bf what happened and he will probably tell you straight that this ‘friend’ needs to leave you alone. You’ve already blocked him so you’ve done the right thing.

It doesn't sound like you even ACTIVELY entertained the idea of being with this person, you just thought that he saw you in a way that you weren't open to because you are in a relationship. I don't think you necessarily cheated. However, no one should be pressuring you like that. I would stay away from this "friend" because they don't respect you OR your relationship. I think the healthiest thing to do is get that person out of your life and focus on building good relationships (not just your romantic one but find good friends who respect you)
