Simply, yes. Emotional cheating is cheating as well.

I would say it is cheating. Why on earth would someone jump on a computer for sex when he has someone anyway????

Yes, of course it's cheating. A person who has sex with anyone other than their partner is cheating, whether it be phone sex, internet chat sex, or a strip tease/lap dance. Internet/cyber sex is defined as two people describing what they desire to do each other. Writing about like and dislikes and how to have better sex on the internet is not cyber sex. Please note the difference between sex advice and open discussion versus desire to have sex with a person other than the significant other. In both cases, a person is not able to openly discuss sex with their partner. However, sex advice is not considered cheating. Cheating is just taking advantage of the relationship. The partner who cheated on is taken advantage of in that when sex decreases in a relationship the efforts toward other things in relationships increase. For example, if cheated on one might do extra housework to get attention while the cheater doesn't care. Furthermore, if the cheater were asked if he were offended if his significant other were talking to someone else or writing to someone else simply as friends without sex, I'm sure the cheater would be very insecure about the whole situation. Cheaters are often extremely insecure about their relationships and rarely leave their significant others. Usually cheaters tend to stay and cheat because they get extra efforts toward housework from one and sex from the other.

Good question. I am looking for a guy who has done this to shed some light on this. Isn't "virtual" sex just having sex with yourself anyway? Why wouldn't you want to real thing?

YES YES YES YES YES.

There are three levels of cheating.

1) In the mind. (It often cannot be helped)
2) In flirting and emotional/verbal intimacy (including virtual sex)
3) Actual sex.

One leads to the other. #1 is not wrong until it becomes #2.
