RE: Cheating on someone



Well to me it's pretty simple U can call them and just say "Hey U should know that your ass of a boyfriend is cheating on U "  Or just show them ...take them to where ever their boyfriend takes the other person to and let them see for their self...Best of Luck...Peace..TLA

RE: Cheating on someone



i have to disagree in my exsperience when ever someone has told their friend that, they always end up getting annoyed at the friend (i.e "they just what my boyfriend" or "she is just wrong he wouldn't do that to me!" ) unless you have hard evidence, and i mean actual evidence not "i saw him do this!" or even worse "my friend saw him here!" it will be very hard to convince her.

if they are happy and she has no clue i think you should leave it and try to maybe guide her into finding out herself...

eg if you are together and feel he may be off cheating, maybe suggest "hey why not meet up with (bob) for ......?) or even ask questions about what he is up too? things to get her thinking but in a subtle manner.

or even if you saw him out with a girl maybe say "oh i saw (bob) lastnight at fat cat, didn't get to say hi though" this way you are clear, and she will cope better finding out on her own, its very humiliating feeling everyone knew except you... try and spare as many of her feelings as possible...

good luck!

If you know for sure that in fact the lowlife is cheating, then you tell her.  You need to be honest, cuz if your best friend finds out later that you knew and didn't tell her, then that it's a "blow" to your credibility as a best friend.  The truth will come out eventually, trust me.  I've been cheated on and you can only hide it for so long until the truth comes out.  Tell her, and good luck!

Yuk, this is a damned if you do and damned if you don't situation.  Here's the way I see this one.  If you are close with your friend, you sit her down and prepare her, tell her you have something to tell her that is going to upset her.  Tell her the when and how's of it and how you came to know of it.  Understand though that depending on the strength of your friendship, this could backfire on you.

I told a friend of mine once that his fiance was cheating, how did I know, the idiot herself told me?  Like I was going to approve or something.  I told him how and where.  He came to me three days later and told me never to tell him anything like that again, because he was sick of people ganging up on her.  The only person ganging up on her was a co worker and the mail man......lol.

Anywho, you tell her, but tell her why and how you know.  Telling her that you know is simply not good enough.  Then tell her why you told her, and that is because you are best buds and that you don't want to see her treated that way and that you would want her to do the same for you.

MY inferiority complex isn't as good as YOURS

RE: Cheating on someone



You could tell her,but she won't believe it until denial wears off and she becomes ready.I went through this...all my friends told me.But I would say "he would never do that" and "you don't know him like I do".Turns out about a dozen other women "knew" him intimately.

Denial is a safe place.I personally enjoyed denial.It's when you give up and see the truth flashing in giant neon letters that life get's very real and scary.I think you should try to tell her,and remind her that you're there for her if she needs help getting through this (which she will).Say you understand if she doesn't want to deal,but it's something you know as a fact and you don't want her wasting her time or being hurt over and over again.

You're a good friend.I wish you and your friend luck!
