6 months ago, my girlfriend cheated. This was my response when she told me today that she wanted to be friends

Calsun · 2012-09-08T20:19:45+00:00

My ex-fiance cheated on me... about a year later without a word being said between us I saw her in a club and the way the crowd was situated we had to pass by each other....

She started to talk to me "Ummmm How..."

I cut her off and laughed in her face as I walked away.

ultrajinx · 2012-09-08T19:50:26+00:00

my ex cheated on me 6 months ago too, she tried asking for the gifts she bought me back. I wish I had this gif on hand

awkwardlaugh · 2012-09-08T20:19:18+00:00

My ex texted me the other day saying she had weird dream about me the other night and it made her miss me.

I asked her if I was riding a dinosaur

zibmai · 2012-09-08T20:09:14+00:00

I had a boyfriend who cheated, lied, then broke up with me by completely disappearing out of my life. A couple of years later he sent me a long-winded message about how he's changed, reformed, hope you forgive me and we can talk again. I've long since moved on and never did respond. It's best to leave it at that rather than expend the energy to reopen that part of your life you worked hard to close.

cepheus9 · 2012-09-08T19:27:24+00:00

As a man who's been through something very similar, I wish you the very best. My ex said she was really hurt when I told her I didn't want to be friends with her after the break up. Palm, meet face.

StreakyChimp · 2012-09-08T19:45:38+00:00

She's probably hoping that one day you will Chang your mind.

Shoulder_Buzzer · 2012-09-08T18:58:14+00:00

were you in love with her or was it more of casual dating?

Theartiswrong · 2012-09-08T19:54:26+00:00

...at monopoly

UhOhOreo2012 · 2012-09-08T20:07:58+00:00

That feel...

TowrsFallnPepleDyin · 2012-09-08T20:08:11+00:00

Good job buddy. I've seen so many situations where they let them back in, then eventually they get back together and shit just repeats itself. Keep the tramp out bud!.

DerpWY · 2012-09-08T18:57:48+00:00

I like to think of maintaining post-relationship friendships as a pretty mature move.

...unless that person is toxic, in which case you should avoid them like the plague.

fastpony12 · 2012-09-08T19:28:35+00:00

was in a similar situation with my ex...gave her a similar response haha

Hameed67 · 2012-09-08T20:33:44+00:00

Before the girl I was dating left me for the same chode for the second time, she had asked me, "If I went back to [chode], would you still be my friend?". Said nope, and she got livid.

mayonesa · 2012-09-08T21:43:19+00:00

"Sure, just remove your DAGGER FROM MY BACK."

TurbidTwatCocktail · 2012-09-08T20:37:52+00:00

GJ. Sever all ties and tell that bitch to fuck off. She's your ex for a reason!

brian1975 · 2012-09-08T21:38:40+00:00

Keep them too tired to cheat.

cybergeek11235 · 2012-09-08T21:52:00+00:00

"Not just no, but hell no. And fuck no. In fact, I'm going to get those two a room, let them have a sweaty night of amazing wordplay, and give birth to a batch of adorable little no-lings - one of whom will grow up and invent a time machine so I can go back in time and retroactively tell you 'no'."

SassyKat · 2012-09-08T21:58:48+00:00

Fascinating how a single post can hold such immense male bonding / sharing of feels. Her friendship certainly is not magic, and she can go fuck herself. Hope you doing well mate, have an upvote with the hope that you're making the most of life now that you're free from the ball and chain.

kevinhugh91 · 2012-09-08T21:38:41+00:00

My gf was my highschool Sweetheart didn't start actually dating till after highschool .. 3 years later she dumped me and after the fact I found out she fucked a couple guys behind my back. . Still wake up everyday pissed and it's been a couple months already .. Even worse she lives on the next street over .. Everyday is a constant reminder .. Any advice?

topchief1 · 2012-09-09T00:01:58+00:00

"Try not to suck any dick on your way to the parking lot!"

Unwright · 2012-09-08T18:53:01+00:00

Pretty much the only reasonable response. Cheaters are fucking disgusting sub-human scum. Glad you're clear of her now!

VAJAYNUS · 2012-09-08T21:05:02+00:00

My GF cheated on me, left the country with him and came back alone, (obviously).

And you know what: We're now great friends. Would I ever take her back, shit no, does that mean we cant be friends? Of course not.

Now im not a 17 year old redditor who's never actually had a girlfriend and likes to give advice from my moral high horse in total absolutes, I live in the real world where people make mistakes, learn, grow, change.

In my case, her mother had died and she went full tilt into drinking and drugs to cope, made mistakes, and, when she came back and i helped her get back on her feet, got a new job, got healthy, got sober and stayed away from serious relationships for years. Now seeing how much she's matured I know that, at least in this case, I made the right choice.

My $0.02

TheHungerJames · 2012-09-08T22:48:16+00:00

you either die as a faithful GF or you live long enough to see yourself become a cheater

BusOfKittens · 2012-09-08T22:10:17+00:00

Girlfriend of 2 years just told me she cheated on me today. I'm packing her shit tonight.

kobaland · 2012-09-08T16:27:10-07:00

There are simply not enough likes to give

Bout_It_Bout_It · 2012-09-08T19:53:30+00:00

I'm waiting for the "we are only hearing one side of the story" "ugh reddit, why is the woman always the bitch" white knight that always shows up in these kind of threads.

Edit: Ah..Close enough i guess

_kvl_ · 2012-09-08T20:05:14+00:00

I found out my ex had cheated on me shortly after we broke up.

The whole "lets be friends" thing is complete bullshit, as soon as i found out i stopped even reading her messages.

TuskedOdin · 2012-09-08T17:51:52+00:00

1: you keep in contact with your treacherous ex girlfriends?

2: you kept dating her? ಠ_ಠ

pineapplesmasher · 2012-09-08T12:32:15-07:00

If they cheat I'd probably be thinking something like "I hope you get hit by a truck." - No, I'm not bitter or anything...

Sobertese · 2012-09-08T19:25:43+00:00

Heh, this has turned into a very enlightening AMA

Once a cheater, always a cheater. No second chances. You either continue a messed up angst ridden relationship, or cut your losses and run.

IknowIhaveaproblem · 2012-09-08T19:35:52+00:00

"I'd rather hang out with racists, and child molesters."

twasdreary · 2012-09-08T20:30:46+00:00

Ah, see I don't really understand this mentality. What I do is accept this "friend request" and through my actions so her that I've moved on. Even if I may not be entirely over her she won't know that. I won't be torturing myself by being friends with her because I'll actively be getting over her. Going out and meeting new people and being social will be the antidote for the feelings we once shared. Both of us will eventually be with other people and new feelings will prosper with a new person.

The key point I want to get across is that you'll eventually have a booty call, which is your ex...maybe, if she doesn't settle down and marry some man out of the blue. Why? because how you handled things after ya'll broke up is gonna tell her that you're not a desperate man; you didn't need her to live your life. The physical attraction will still be there because she doesn't think you're a weak man. So when you're both single and go out one night or you see her at party or something, you can still hit that and it'll be glorious because it's just sex. They'll be no texting between the two of you the next day, because both you should know what's up, and if shit happens and ya'll develop a mutual attraction for each other again, well, everyone deserves a second chance. If one of ya'll fucks up and sleeps with another person again, well, then you'll know for sure that it's not meant to be.

This is how I roll and I enjoy it. It's always nice to have booty calls

Samsau12 · 2012-09-08T13:11:40-07:00

My ex did that to me. I poured a milkshake on my head

mikedawgx · 2012-09-08T20:51:51+00:00

Respect. Usually I have to go around calling everyone a pussy ass bitch for staying in their dead relationship. You chose well, The_Dok.

Data_D · 2012-09-08T22:18:25+00:00

You should have kicked her in the nuts.

blasted_biscuits · 2012-09-08T20:24:11+00:00

Good move. Eventually it would have happened again only she woulda gotten better at hiding it.

Muteyy · 2012-09-08T20:26:43+00:00

This may have to be my response to a girl who "Wants to stay as friends" even though she is suggestive as anything about it being more.

brussels4breakfast · 2012-09-08T13:51:42-07:00

What is this gif from? I've seen it several times before.

Nathan561 · 2012-09-08T21:02:18+00:00

Its like when people(I usually see girls do it, no offense) cheat and then say that they love you soo much and they didnt mean to hurt you....wtf

keslehr · 2012-09-08T21:07:49+00:00

I'm Chang, and I cannot die.

tnnrlil · 2012-09-08T21:08:13+00:00

We share feels

zamboniman46 · 2012-09-08T21:46:04+00:00

Good. Good.

guruchild · 2012-09-08T22:07:29+00:00

If only more people had your constitution. I've always reacted this way to cheaters.

Atticah · 2012-09-08T22:13:24+00:00

I saw her eating my shit out of the toilet so i dumped her after she blew him

KrazyEyezKilla · 2012-09-08T22:13:52+00:00

Horrendous isn't it? I saw mine just last month and afterwards she texted me asking how I was, I told her I was fine, and that I was in a relationship with someone else and that was it, she then texted again asking if we could meet up, I lol'd and deleted.

That was a 2 year relationship that ended after weeks of arguing and her eventually throwing red wine all over me in a restaurant and chasing me out the door taking swings at my head. Pretty funny looking back now considering she's 5'2

bluemoh · 2012-09-08T15:40:33-07:00

What movie/video is that gif from?

DrDeath666 · 2012-09-08T22:53:45+00:00

I love it.

cyborg_hobo · 2012-09-08T23:24:38+00:00

so.. you sent her a gif?!

MStoli · 2012-09-08T23:36:29+00:00

So bitter it made me wince.

heracleides · 2012-09-09T00:12:10+00:00

You should have said sure, but you have to buy me stuff.

Belaires · 2012-09-09T00:20:54+00:00

translation: she still feels guilty and doesn't want to anymore

godlessexistence · 2012-09-09T00:24:12+00:00

I see quite a few people in this thread admitting or showing how hurt they still are to the people who cheated on them. If you play it off like you're over it or don't care anymore, it sends a better message and really turns the table on the cheater and usually makes them think "oh shit, i guess he/she doesn't care anymore. maybe i fucked up". the straight up anger or passive aggression can make some people think "oh he/she still isn't over me, we may have foreseeable future".

just speaking from multi experiences as a cheater and as a victim of cheaters.

CoffeeSwagga · 2012-09-09T00:43:26+00:00

Fucking skank. No offense.

lastrideelhs · 2012-09-09T00:49:49+00:00

Same thing happened to me but she didn't wait six months. She waited ten minutes after I found out

biggmclargehuge · 2012-09-09T01:17:57+00:00

judges also would've accepted...

PopeJohnson · 2012-09-09T01:47:46+00:00

Great book I read called, "Emotional Blackmail". Written by a woman for women, and bit sensationalistic, but I recognized my ex wife on almost every page. I realized how emotionally abusive and manipulative she was, my role in it, and the unlikelihood it would ever stop.

Fatbeerguy · 2012-09-09T02:03:29+00:00

Great job brother. Never take a bitch back who cheats.

TheNativeRaver · 2012-09-09T02:05:12+00:00

OMG this is hilarious...

Next time try /r/reactiongifs

Alistair_Hazard · 2012-09-09T02:06:38+00:00

That was my exact reaction when my fiance/girlfriend of six years dumped me two weeks ago and said "we can still be friends" like it was a goddamn silver lining to her shit cloud she was raining down on me.

AlumiuN · 2012-09-09T02:10:43+00:00

It seems to be that I'm one of the few people who's had an SO cheat on them (the only one I've had, in my case) and actually tried to salvage the relationship. Not that that's working too well, but I do wonder what makes doing that so unusual.

duhcassinidivision · 2012-09-09T03:18:47+00:00

Sort by controversial, and ITT, we find people who get walked the fuck over all the time.

ikeyballz · 2012-09-09T03:34:07+00:00

Wrong way. Say ok. Get a better (hotter, smarter, sexier..everything) gf. Do well in life. Make her regret every single day her decision to be an idiot. If you're not "friends" how do you rub it in her face?

Remember the saying, keep your friends close and your enemies closer ;)

mrconqueso · 2012-09-09T04:13:17+00:00

Last month my ex girlfriend who cheated on me 4 years ago said she wanted to be friends and THIS was my response...true story

funny
