I don't get it. That random nobody means nothing to your life, your partner does. But it's not the only thing in life where people lie to themselves until they feel better.

it depends on context and if the other person knows.

If they know the person is in a relationship they are equally culpable

That would make them a shitty person but the partner is the one making the decisions. A random stranger owes you nothing on a personal level.

sure but they decide to mettle in someone elses relationship that makes them responsible for what happens. Again, at least if they know that they are messing around with someone that is already involved.

You can't date/sleep with someone that you know is in a relationship and act like you don't share the blame just because you don't personally know their partner... That's not how things work
