can i say, my bf didnt speak to me for 2 weeks after i started crying when teling him bout my ex.

i didnt cheat. do you think he's justified?

Of course not, you should be aloowed to talk about exes without expecting your other half to get annoyed. When I was out with Micala I frequently talked about certain ex girlfriends and she didn't mind one bit.

he should be happy that you're talking to him about it instead of hiding it ... well....maybe not happy but feel better at least that its not somehing you're keeping hidden from him!

i still don't think alcohol is a valid excuse for kissing someone. if you're that drunk you forget you have a partner, that's a problem in itself.

Agreed, I HATE it when people use alcohol as an excuse.

The funny thing is, I love how quickly the people who were "drunk", sober up at 1am when the police have been called by the neighbour to a rowdy party.

I agree with the kiss on lips as friends bit. Did his girlfriend find out? Annoyingly, the most moral thing you could do is to force him to tell her but i know few of us would do that, and maybe not even me (talk about hypocrit!). I have to confess to doing something similar but the girl i kissed was about to finish with her boyfriend. I think that makes it slightly better but i would still have rather not done it. I think any form of 'adultery', whether you are the aldulteror or the guilty accomplis, is best avoided.


er...no his gf didnt find out...they were having trubble at time which sort of explains a little...i dnt know his gf but theyre good now...i kinda helped him sort stuff out with her...! go figure?

I too think that using the excuse of being drunk is pathetic. When Micala ended up kissing a guy at a house party she went to, she made a point of stating that she hadn't been drunk.

For me, cheating would be anything more than a kiss on the cheek. Flirting depends on who it's with and in what circumstances, eg jokey flirting with mutual friends is ok.

I'm so adamantly against cheating that I think I would find it difficult to forgive and I would under no circumstances do it myself. There are no excuses for it if you ask me :smile:


Here here!!

There are definitely no excuse for it and I wouldn't stand for it either. Although i take the point that it's one thing to say that when i've luckily never been in that position.

you're joking right? so he's basically not allowed friends who happen to be girls... i think i woudl actually split up/completely re-assess our relationship if my bf stopped me going out for dinner or a drink with a male friend; it shows how little he would trust

hm, perhaps i should've mentioned he'd fancied her for ages even before i came along. (and probably for a long time after, though he'd never admit to that.) the only reason they never got together would be because she wasn't interested.

it wasn't just the going out to dinner though, there were lots of other little things that just added up to make the whole situation 'wrong', and if the same thing/things were to happen now i wouldn't stand for it.

so yeah, i think "having a few friends that happen to be girls" is slightly different to going out on a one on one dinner date (yes, it was him who referred to it as a date), especially with someone you've obsessed over for months.

its like i said, people have different ideas of what they expect from relationships and some people would just let this kinda thing go. most of the people i've spoken to though (including my bf), do think it was wrong.
Haha - right now more people consider kissing cheating than consider sex cheating! Hope that's just people not voting right and there aren't really people out there who think it's ok to sleep with someone else as long as you don't kiss them!

I completely see where you're coming from on this. My ex was always spending time with a particular "friend" towards the end of our relationship - she was always calling when we were together, she texted him all the time, she probably knew more about him than me (we'd been going out nearly 2 years). He told me I was being silly and too possessive. Things went bad in the relationship (I still loved him but he lost interest and we couldn't carry on)and we split up, a couple of months later they were going out. They never actually did anything while we were together, but it hurt almost as much as if they had. There's a fine line between your boyfriend being friends with someone and just one step further.
:eek: some people consider flirting as cheating?! Some people naturally flirt. It's just their way of being friendly :biggrin:

Anything more than that is definitely cheating though. I'd dump someone if they kissed someone else and definitely if they did anything more than that. I guess it depends how much I liked the guy though, and how sorry they were.

You must have overlooked the post where it was assumed that those who voted for kissing ONLY may have been unaware that they could choose more than one option, and therefore assumed that anything including kissing and beyond was cheating.


Yeah, that's what I thought...but it does look funny when you first click on the thread! :smile:
