I don't care if my friends cheat on their spouses, that is their business to deal with. As long as their spouses aren't closer friends to me than they are.

I support my friends, even when they make mistakes (within reason of course).

To be clear, it was how she dealt with the aftermath/consequences of cheating that was so repellent. She basically blamed her husband for not being sexually voracious enough and explicitly refused to admit she'd done anything wrong.

Ah, ok. That makes a bit more sense. Yea, the way I see it is I'll defend my friends, even if they are wrong, unless they make a ridiculous scene and drag and everyone down with them, which I've seen happen.

I had a friend who essentially blamed my friend group and I for "enabling" him to cheat. This was a blatant lie, as we were simply in the same house as him when he cheated on his girlfriend. Not our job to bust into his bedroom and moral police him. I'm still friends w/ this person (eventually apologized for his stupidity) but our group and he didn't talk for a few months.

I mean, I might have done something like that (and my friends would probably expect me to, honestly), but I recognize that that very much calls for an (abnormal).

Last news from her is she's now cheated on the girl she cheated on her husband with, and is finally admitting fault, not for cheating, but for developing feelings for the guy she was casually [Inks]ing instead of spending time with her girlfriend.

I mean, we all told him it wasnt' a good idea, but that's the farthest I'd go. Definitely didn't "enable" him to cheat on her. But, won't lie, none of us liked his girlfriend at the time because she freaked us out a bunch.

A different friend bragged about how he was able to make out with some random girl within hearing distance of his girlfriend. I told him maybe he shouldn't scream those things in earshot of other people and he got butthurt lol.

I like avoiding drama. Especially petty drama.

and damn, this girl sounds...bizarre lol.

What's especially sad about all this is that when I met her about six years ago she was a very restrained person and a liberal-but-devout Muslim. Now the way she goes about her life is somewhere between Emma Bovary and Charlie Sheen. Every individual step in the process of her going from 2010 her to current her made sense at the time.

At one point, more recently than I'd like to admit, I made the mistake of confiding in her that I feel more sexual urges in day-to-day life than I let on. She tried to convince me to give in to them because promiscuous sex mirrors Christ's love for us in the Eucharist, or something. (She hasn't at any point in her life been Catholic.) She also told me that 'sex is every young religious person's introduction to moral relativism' and that if I want to have sex I'll eventually find a way to justify it to myself, in a context that made it clear that she expected me to find this reassuring somehow.


....wow...that's messed up.
