Matthew 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

Man may judge you according to your actions. An important lesson that is learned during the Sermon on the Mount is that God will judge you based upon your thoughts. The Law of Moses stated that man should not commit adultery. However, Jesus did not come and destroy the Law of Moses, instead, Jesus revealed to the world that God does not judge you simply upon your actions, instead, God looks at the heart and HE judges you based upon your thoughts. Jesus said that a man could commit adultery not only in the bedroom but also and more importantly the man can commit adultery in the mind.
