Given that "infidelity" is as much a social construct as it is a specific behavior -- then if somebody feels in their own heart that they are being unfaithful, then they probably are. Even if all his/her mind and physical body are doing is having coffee with the other person once a week in a public place.
(My own suspicion is that the relationship most likely involved what used to be known in my long-ago high school days as "heavy petting", which was one stop short of "going all the way" ... and certainly didn't count as actually having sex, because if it did, then there wouldn't have been a virgin left in the state of Texas. Except for possibly me, because I was a late bloomer and didn't discover some things until I went north to grad school.)
