You guys keep throwing words like blame and fault around here, but all parties share the 'pointing fingers game'

The original boyfriend is not doing something right or she wouldn't want to cheat on him.
The girl for letting the heat of the moment get caught up with her and not handling this better.
Cake for being the catalyst in this situation and not seeing this coming a mile away.

But all of that doesn't matter. Either way, their relationship is pretty much destroyed regardless of what you decide to do now. She's not going to talk to him about any of this, she's going to come to you, which is going to further tear their relationship. Since your emotions are getting control of you, consider that doing the 'right' thing isn't going to make the most people happy anymore. The only way that she doesn't feel completely miserable is if you open up your arms. The original bf is going to come off unhappy no matter what; depending on how you feel is going to shape most of this decision even if you try and be selfless.

Whoah there. While this is often the case, it isn't always the case. Some girls are just crazy and want to cheat, no matter what the guy does.

Well, if he wants a piece O' friends pie, he probably should just play the situation a little more cool. IMO, the kid needs to stop hanging out and drinking with her alone in his apartment if he doesn't want to A. Piss off the other guy. B. Give this girl any ideas. C. Truly be a good guy.

Right now he is kind of coming off like a guy who wants to do the right thing, but is having a little trouble saying no to the temptation.

This is not me judging, I'd have been digging her plastic nails out of my back for a week if it were me...

Really, the only resolution to this situation is for ICE to bang the boyfriend.

Actually, the situation reminds me of a girl I knew who was doing the same thing. Eventually it came to my attention that she was trying to setup a three-way... and not the good kind.

Tread lightly ICE.

Not enough play on this, in my opinion. Simbagal makes a great point.

Popeye's on the right track, too. Some girls are just whacked, and looking for a guy gullible enough to get in trouble with.

And? That's just another case of him not doing something right.

But this is problem not the case. From what it sounds like their relationship is already strained without anyone cheating.

Some people lose interest. It just happens all the time...especially at these people's age.

What's he not doing right? Dating the wrong chick? Seriously, some girls just love the drama. It doesn't matter what you do as their boyfriend.

Why do you say their relationship is strained?
