    A dignified silence and not showing someone how much they have hurt you, is far more powerful than the passive, aggressive behaviour that your friend stooped to. She has only achieved to do herself as much if not more damage as she caused to her ex by this action. I think she will regret it long term.
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    It's the perfect crime!

    My friend was cheated on once. Her way of getting revenge was acting like nothing had happened, took him upstairs for a bit of fun and promptly bit him where it counted!

    Not condoning that, but same as above, was cruel and would affect him..

    He cheated and she decided it was a good idea to have him in her mouth?

    Yuk!

    If I'd done something as sordid as that, I wouldn't even have shared it with my priest (if I were remotely religious), let alone tell a friend about it.

    but at least he has not been exposed to the embarrassment in a very public arena in a manner from which he may never recover.

    Never recover from people seeing him crying and begging his partner to take him back despite cheating? Clearly if he did all this, it's because he showed some remorse. Pity he thought of her after he had done it, but I think that is much less embarassing for him that if she had poster him being horrible to her when confronted.

    I find it very sad that people have so low self-esteem and their lives revolving around social media that they could be traumatised for life for something like this being posted, which most likely no body really cared about long term and have probably already forgotten about.

    I did see a cheater get his comeuppance.

    This chap cheated on my friend and when discovered, he lashed out and hit her which was his second mistake.

    I saw him in the pub a couple of days later and he was proudly displaying his bruises and black eyes and regailled the tale of him fighting off 3 lads who jumped him.
    This was going well and people were buying him drinks, patting him on the back etc.

    Until i pointed out that his injuries weren't due to getting jumped by 3 lads, they were due to hitting his wife and her very butch lesbian friend had given him an education as to why raising a hand to woman wasn't a good idea.
    (Note said lesbian friend played on the front row for the local ladies rugby league team and I use the term "ladies" very loosely)

    His friends turned their backs on him and the landlord barred him. :beer:

    Maybe we should ask why he cheated. Maybe the girl isn't a nice person, or he wasn't getting any or she cheated on him too. I think it's always important to know all the details before judging this guy.


    And revenge? Yeah, always makes me feel better. My ex cheated on me, so I left her with thousands of pounds worth of debt and never gave her a cent. All the cards were in her name after all- hahahaha.

    You think that is funny?

    Do you think that saddling somebody with thousands of £ of debt was a fair revenge?
    You are one sad individual.

    You mean she might have been a sentient robot incapable of love?
    That would actually be a valid reason for cheating I think.

    What does "wasn't a person" mean ?


    Frankly only losers cheat - normal people just leave a relationship and don't need to have someone else willing to shag them as a fallback before they have the guts to end the relationship.
