Romantic reputation is unpredictable
I knew that sometimes your sim's partner will accuse them of cheating when your sim hasn't actually cheated. But it also seems that some sims are utterly clueless about when they're being cheated on.....

Romantic interests are not "partners" in the game sense. It just means the sims showed some interest in each other that goes beyond woohoo. If your sim only kisses one other sim, (s)he will get the chain of "faithful" moodlets. The game seems to keep up a certain distinction between heartfelt involvement and bodily attraction. And even though your sims had two kids with each other, they still count as singles for the game. Only romantic actions performed in front of the romantic interest count as bad behavior in that case. As long as the involved don't kiss (and kissing during woohoo doesn't count for some reason), cheating in the game is relatively "safe". As soon as the sims go steady, things change, as that's a commitment.
Of course, there's always some element of chance involved in these things, too.
