In my opinion, "serious long term relationship" implies that it is exclusive, and there fore fucking someone else is the exact definiteion of cheating. Even if there is no emotional attachment, if your significant other wuld be hurt by it, then it's wrong.
If you and your significant other have an arrangement which permits you to get nookie on the side with escorts, it's not cheating. In any other circumstance, it is cheating.
Also, how is sex with an escort - or any partner - "always safe"?
I was asked my opinion on this matter as the person that asked me said that they were on the fence if this was cheating or not.
When I told said person my opinion, I was told that many disagree with me and don't see this as cheating at all.
When I told said person that coming clean to the missus was best, before they brought a little something some home with them....I was told that it was always safe...which lead me to make this face.....
It's cheating if the partner has been led to believe they are in a sexually monogamous relationship. There are cultures or relationships where monetary investment for carnal services is seen as merely a transaction that does not affect one's emotional and familial commitments. Depends on the situation.
Tell him he's a cheating dick. You can wear condoms all you want, but stuff like HPV is spread by skin contact, i.e. not ruled out by the use of protection.

Whatevs. I'm pretty sure condoms make you invincible. Even without condoms you can always just have oral. Everybody knows you can't catch anything from oral.
Sexual contact with someone outside your relationship is cheating, unless your significant other is both aware of and OK with it. And by 'aware of and OK with', I mean you talked about it expressly, in regards to the situation at hand.
Depends on the understanding behind your serious, long term relationship. If you have a poly relationship, then it may be kosher, depending on what the understanding behind that relationship. If you have a mono relationship, then it's cheating, cut and dry. If you haven't talked about it with your partner, then by default you have the relationship common to your culture: A mono relationship, and it's back to cheating.
A betrayal of trust regarding a relationship is cheating, whether or not the partner finds out.
