One of the dumbest policies I've ever known.
Never cheat, have been cheated on. It sucks. You move on.

Your style of argument is selective and ambush-ish. Stop.ScOULaris said:Once again, what is there to discuss? What could you friend POSSIBLY tell you that you justify his/her cheating?
It's subtly suggested every time someone says something along the lines of "everyone's reasons for cheating are different/complicated."soultron said:We're not defending cheating. Stop suggesting that.
ScOULaris said:Just to be clear, when it happened with my best friend, we did discuss it. He told her the next day, and that was it. And despite all of this, we remained friends! Who would have thought that my friend would be mature enough to accept responsibility for his wrongdoing and not threaten me for being "disloyal."
Seriously...soultron said:Your style of argument is selective and ambush-ish. Stop.
You discuss that you're displeased with your friend but that you're there for them to talk it out. Maybe it's a sign that your friend's relationship has soured and they need to get out -- you help them realize that. Our maybe it's just your friend being an idiot -- you help them realize that doing it again could have them throwing away a perfectly fine relationship for random ass.
We're not defending cheating. Stop suggesting that.

This was supposed to be a thread where people could share their cheating stories, because they are usually pretty interesting.Lard said:Obvious bragging thread.
ScOULaris said:Given my stance on cheating, all of my friends know that if they cheat and I find out, they have one week to confess before I rat them out. My loyalties lie to whomever is in the right in most situations, and I will always side with the victim of cheating rather than the perpetrator, even if my friend is the guilty party. This even applies when I barely know the person who's being cheated on. I feel that everyone deserves to know, and I don't care if someone gets mad at me for breaking the news. If my friend cheats on his or her significant other, they know that I simply won't let it slide. Period. And yes, I have put this policy into practice with my best friend before.
Its not hate, its just something that rubs people the wrong way when you take this moral stand of "I give them fair warning" and other shit when its clear that you're not aware of the reasoning behind why a lot of infidelity happens in the first place.ScOULaris said:This was supposed to be a thread where people could share their cheating stories, because they are usually pretty interesting.
But obviously I struck some kind of nerve with my black-and-white stance on cheating.
Either way, I don't think it's my fault that this thread has been derailed so thoroughly. It's still interesting discussion though, despite all the hate I am getting.
No. You struck a nerve when you discussed your assholish policy of ratting out your friends.ScOULaris said:But obviously I struck some kind of nerve with my black-and-white stance on cheating.

It doesn't matter what their "reasoning" was for cheating. The other half of the couple that was cheated on deserves to know. Let them decide if the reasoning makes any difference after hearing the news, but everyone deserves to know when they are being cheated on.DY_nasty said:Its not hate, its just something that rubs people the wrong way when you take this moral stand of "I give them fair warning" and other shit when its clear that you're not aware of the reasoning behind why a lot of infidelity happens in the first place.
OP's friend: "I need to get something off my chest man.... I cheated on my wife. Its been going on for a while now, bu-"Neuromancer said:No. You struck a nerve when you discussed your policy of ratting out your friends.

OP: "YOU HAVE ONE WEEK"
Huh?DY_nasty said:And that sucks, but if you go on saying "its just a matter of time before the next wench rips out your heart! SHE MIGHT BE DOING IT RIGHT NOW" then its pretty obvious that you've got trust issues that still need to be worked on.
All that bullshit of "that you know of! *dun dun dun*" is pointless

So defending my position without any hostility or profanity whatsoever is trolling now? IN MY OWN THREAD?!Jangocube said:OP is a douche though, always has been. Haven't seen a thread by him where he doesn't troll it.
