    The person in the relationship is the one with the responsibility not to cheat, they are objectively the worse person. If my partner is willing to cheat on me my friends might as well hit it because I’m not interested in continuing that relationship after that point anyway.

        My friend group recently excised someone because he was hard core planning on cheating on his soon to be wife… They weren’t married yet, he wanted to end the relationship bud didn’t wanna be single. So he was just planning on cheating and how exactly to do it.

        We decided to cut him out of the group, because most of us have the opinion “if you’re willing to fuck over your supposed partner, you’re definitely willing to fuck over a friend”. Add on top of that a ton of unremorseful misogyny.

          Ugh we just got cut out of our friend group for very similar situation, except the asshole won. He almost cheated on his then fiance, he did screw over his “best friend” my husband, and when he learned my husband had told me about the emotional affair, he manipulated us and everyone, campaigned against us and eventually got us disliked and dropped by everyone. It really sucked, these were lifelong friends. My only hope is that they eventually all see who he is. I doubt it, as it’s been a year and a half, and his now wife just had a baby. I feel the worst for her in the situation.

          It’s so weird to me that people pre-plan cheating. You always hear the story that “it just happened”. However, now that I’m in my 40s, I’ve found that it is so often someone who spends lots of time considering it and shopping the idea around to their friends to see if they can find someone to tell them it’s ok.

            Yeah, 100%. A few of us tried to talk him out of it. 3 of us had independent 1:1 conversations with him saying it wasn’t cool. And if he’s not happy in his relationship now, it won’t magically get better (he knew that to be true) and he should break it off. However he refused, unless he had a sure thing for a relationship immediately after.

            He wanted to use one of our (my SO and me) best friends as “option B” and also had graphic and very explicit fantasies about this individual. He told one of the others that was trying to have a “come to your senses” talk with him about these fantasies, unsolicited. To the point he was apparently graphically imagining fucking them after we had just hung out, while he was home laying in bed next to his Fiancee.

            He also said that de wasn’t worried about the wedding coming up. The quote “whether I break it off now or a day before the wedding, its the same emotional and financial toll, so I shouldn’t rush it”. And he wouldn’t be willing to get a divorce once they had kids. He didn’t want kids, but she did, and he caved.

        If my partner is willing to cheat they are the one hurting me. If it’s not with my friend it’d be with someone else eventually but i guess it depends on how they handle it. If my friend tells me immediately then I’m not going to care because that allows me to not waste any more time with the cheater. They’re doing me a favor by exposing them as the trash they are sooner rather than later. Might as well get laid for their trouble. If they go behind my back for weeks thus causing me to waste time and energy on a cheater then I’d be pissed.

          I don’t understand this at all. If my partner cheats with a stranger, then sure-- all the blame is on my partner. The stranger doesn’t know me. But a friend? They are betraying the relationship between us just as my partner is. My expectations for a friend would be more along the lines of “hey man, you really ought to know that your partner tried to fuck me”, rather than “btw bro, I got it off with your partner” (high-five??).

            As far as I’m concerned the relationship is over the instant my partner decides to cheat on me. Whether they get rejected or not. My friend telling me about it has the same end result either way. So I don’t really consider it a betrayal assuming they do tell me. The cheater was going to cheat sooner or later anyway might as well get it over with.

              Even if she’s immediately an ex due to her behavior, I think a lot of people would rather their close friends not sleep with an ex. It’s like, if you two fall in love after we’re over, you can’t stop love, but if you’re just getting your rocks off, there are plenty of fish

        If we’re comparing this tattoo to wardrobe choices, imagine you’re single and you show up to dates dressed in a t-shirt that says “I enjoyed it when my dog attacked my previous romantic partner” and the effect that might have on your whole vibe with the other person.

        I have one piece of capital A art. It’s a watercolor of the Y in South lake Tahoe (you know the intersection) and it also looks like a dog living its best life. Some famous dude painted it for gran for saving his life. Now it’s mine!

        If you don’t know the area, it just looks like splotches. Or a dog licking its balls. But if you know the area, those few streaks of ink evoke home.

      Waitwaitwait…

      Doggo has a sensitive nose. We know he had to notice a strong smell of another male and scent of sex on the ex.

      Now, there is a really, really small, almost nonexistant chance that the doggo connected the dots and assumed she betrayed the pack.

      And sure, chance is really low…but I also don’t see a lot of claims to similiar story and if something has extremely small chance of happening, it still may happen. xD

        More than likely the dog detected anxiety/hesitation/etc, saw that as prey/weak pack behavior and attacked accordingly. Dog would probably attack children.

              My reaction was mostly provoked by the “Dog would probably attack children”. It’s funny to me that, seemingly, lemmings are more eager to assume each single dog is a non senstient killing machine rather that it tried to protect it’s owner. xD

              Most dogs have instinct to hunt prey, but like with humans, they can learn to overwrite them and most under good owners do. It’s werid to me when I see people immediately assume the dog is aggressive just because of one reported bite scenario, and that specific one at the same time. Like saying that a random person is overly aggresive because when you heard once that they hit someone.

    I expect the “close friend” is no longer close, but the person who broke the promise, to whatever degree the promise was there, is the one who should get the most shit.

    I say this as someone whose wife cheated on me. She broke her vows, she chose to cheat instead of just leaving me, he was incidental and could have been anyone. I can hardly blame him, my wife was hot af, and she lied to him, of course.

      I have two friends who first met because one was this girl’s “platonic cuddle buddy” and the other was her fuckbuddy. Neither knew she was effectively getting half the relationship from the other and they both wanted a “full” relationship with her until they both showed up at an event she was at and it came out. When they found out they both “dumped” her and became friends.
