I am new here. I have a question and I don't know if this is the place to discuss it or not, but this is about relationships and such so I thought it might be an appropriate place.
What I want to know is what does it take to cross over to the line that makes it so something needs to be confessed to a priesthood authority?
Let me give you a scenario. A man and woman each married to someone else carry on a relationship online in which they have many intitmate discussions regarding their marriages etc. Over the course of time these 2 become aroused by one another and have impure thoughts about each other. They want to be intimate but don't want to hurt their spouses or face the consequences... but the lust is there. Then they meet in person and kiss passionately but do not take anything any further than that. They end their relationship following that one incident of making out. Both pray and repent and break connections with each other so that nothing more ever happens.
These people have repented to God. Do they still need to go to the priesthood or is it resolved?
