What do you think when a girl you barely know tells you that her BF cheated on her?

[JoeNewbie]

a) She is giving you a hint that she wants to cheat on him as well

 

b) She thinks you're trustworthy, a "friend" she can talk to

 

c) Why the hell would anyone say something like this anyway

I'm going to take this to the next level of difficulty when it comes to multiple choice and say D all of the above. When girls you hardly know complain to you about there bf you have the go ahead to get personal.

What does one think came first, the chicken or the egg? Or what about this....why did that damn chicken decide to cross the road?

 

Don’t really know.

Answer A.

 

If she just wanted someone to talk to, she'd go tell her friends.

 

However, don't partake in her game of payback.

 

edit: this advice was given by an 18 year old who has experience with girls around the age of 18. If you are 25+, don't really read too much into what I said.

Thanks for answering. I think your answers are rather mature for 18 year old!

I'm not so sure it's always a game of payback.

 

Perhaps she doesn't want her friends to know right away and just needs to talk to someone that would be in a neutral standing. This is often why people report issues to LS when there is infidelity involved. They just need a place to vent their feelings.

Yep, disinterested third party who isn't a part of her grapevine. Probably best to stay disinterested, if my experiences have been any guide

If she's hot, let her use you as payback. Just keep in mind she's not relationship material.

She did not make it clear whether she was going to break up with him as it was fairly recent. We all know how these situations usually end up though. Although she is quite hot, I'm not really up for being her payback guy.

Good decision.. You may not be cheating on anyone if you involved yourself with her, but you would be apart of a cheating situation... knowingly..

 

Which is just as bad.

[JoeNewbie]

Telling someone you barely know about your SO cheating on you is, in my opinion, one weird thing to do. This is something a lot of people are ashamed of, something that has a deep impact on their self esteem.

 

There has to be an important factor which would've motivated that person to speak up.

d) She thinks you're the nice guy she can come running to every day to cry on your shoulder as to how badly her BF treats her, then she'll describe her perfect man (which is basically you), but she'll never date you, and then cries how there are no decent men out there.

 

Run my friend...RUN.

 

If she keeps pushing it, stand up strong and tell her either to dump the jerk or stop bitching to you about it.
