sleeping with

Being intimate with

Sleeping with is a euphemism for having sex with: She's been sleeping with her coworker.

The phrase implies an ongoing sexual relationship rather than a one-time encounter.

Despite the wording, actual sleep is beside the point—the phrase works even for brief afternoon liaisons.
