God, I hate having friends sometimes. You try to do the right thing, by telling your roommate that you found out info saying that her BF(who cheated on his last GF) cheated on her and now I'm the bad guy. :|


She gets mad at me for telling her that her BF is also a bad influence on her kid. He talks down to her and disrespects her infront of her kid(which isn't his), yet she thinks he is Mr. Perfect.

OK, had to rant. It's really pissing me off lately.

Sometimes you have to let friends make their own mistakes and support them when they figure it out.

She might be lashing out at you for either A) Reconfirming her suspicions or B) exposing something really bad

some people get defensive and $hit, so that might be the case

if not - then good luck man!!

Well this isn't the first time I've told her what I think about her BF, she's just a week minded person, and believes the lies she's told. It's pretty long story, but I've pretty much given up trying to be friends with her anymore. As long as her part of rent and bills is paid, I don't give a sh!t anymore. I'm just tired of seeing her get hurt yet still go back for more. I'm thinking of having my name taken off the lease and putting his on it instead. Then we'll see how much of a man he is, and see if he'll pay rent.

I have learned not to say anything that offends people. You should try that to, stupid.

I was just kidding about that last part.

Figure it this way: Shes been told. Now its her turn to either open her eyes or suffer the consequences of her actions.

Eitherway, stay out of the rest of it, because its her life. If shes smart she'll figure it out and try to make amends. If not...oh well.

Do what Tupac would say, "Thug Life, Outlaw, Wesyde!" ... listen to the song, "Scandalous"

you can either be the bad guy that knew about it the whole time or tell her and be her shoulder to cry on. Personally, i'd rather be on the shoulder side.

It's been my experience that people don't like hearing unsolicited negative
opnions of their romantic partners,particularly if those opinions are frequently
stated.

yep... of course.. once she is no longer with him-- there probably won't be enough negative comments to go around.
