I have 2 friends who are now dating, both of whom I have been friends with for years before they started dating. If they one day got married and then the dude was cheating on her for months at a time, I'd be pretty hard pressed not to say anything to her and I probably would say "either you tell her when we get back or I will" and not budge on that.

Dude is being an extra douche for not being discrete and involving someone else in his deceit and infidelity, he shouldn't expect special treatment and if he was a better friend he wouldn't put a 3rd party in that situation to begin with.

I think that would be a case of making something more broken than it is. If a person's life isn't being altered in some unhealthy way like being kept from school, just don't touch it. If just knowing about it compels you to turn a consequence into reality, that is a choice you make to be a troublemaker. You are literally a catalyst for trouble. There are so many benefits to your life for keeping your mouth shut that it's self-destructive to say something. Neither one of them will want to stay in touch with you. If the mistress is a disease vector then sure, someone's health is being endangered and he's poo poo so maybe bring that trouble into your life and use this opportunity to find better friends. Hold yourself accountable for what you think is right and don't try to do it for other people. Basically just mind your own business.

I was a pretty picky eater when I was young, but around age 10 I started being more open to the foods around me, and around age 18 I started actively ordering things I've never had. One particular food I still don't like is raw onion, and my parents still give me poo poo and call me a picky eater when I order things without onion. Nevermind that I eat every other vegetable on the plate, that I'm trying escargot, gator, sea urchin, and other things I would have never touched 10 years ago, and that I can actually cook meals that everyone likes now. No, I'm still an rear end in a top hat picky eater because raw onions suck.
Your parents just sound like they're either assholes or trying to make it some sort of family joke. A lot of people don't like raw onions and it's easy to get a dish without em.

Yeah I dunno if I could simply live with the knowledge that my friend is getting constantly disrespected, I'd have to tell them. Plus often times the person being cheated on does suspect something/gets a bad vibe about it and to cover their tracks the cheater has to be an even shittier person who flips it back on them being distrusting/controlling/etc, you'd have to be a garbage tier friend to just let someone live through that for any length of time.

Bro.

I have 2 friends. One friend betrays another in front of me and asks me to be complicit in their betrayal by keeping silent. If I do this, I am also now betraying the 3rd friend. I do not want to do that.

It is very simple.

I'm conflicted about this one. The fact that his friend is a horrible douche is undeniable (and LOL at the Mark Sanford allegory) but personally I get very hesitant about getting involved in other people's love lives. I think in this case because he's good friends with the wife then it may be his responsibility or else he's letting her down, though. Also doesn't seem like the friend plans to change (already got another hiking fuckfest planned) so yeah, in this case I think it is warranted to get involved. Simply telling her while he's gone on the hike and letting her do what she will with that information is probably the best course of action. Also, just stick to what you know for sure.

It's always iffy because if you get involved then they both might just side against you.

But that dude is about to have a kid with his wife and he's planning vacations with his mistress, the kid doesn't deserve to grow up in a dysfunctional home and at that point the wife has a right to know she's making a huge commitment to a guy who isn't reciprocating.

here's a fun one from today

quote:

I [20M] am am physically attracted **only** to asian girls. Feel like an awful person.Personal issues

submitted 6 hours ago * by iamanawfulperson2017

I wasn't sure where to put this as it's a strange issue. It's not so much an issue with a relationship, it's an issue with my formation of a relationship.

I am a white guy living in the UK, in a fairly multicultural area (but still mostly white area, maybe 60% or so). I have had two girlfriends in the past, one of which was with a white girl long term, and was with an asian girl for a few months, who I am still talking to and miss quite a bit. She was way too lovely and kind to me when breaking up and she really wanted to stay friends so I am.

Anyway my issue is that for the past year or so, I have been hugely attracted to asian features in girls. Slanted eyes, slim and with dark hair are my prefered physical features.

Now I want to say I would not date a girl just because of her race. I just find the physical features most common in asians to be most attractive to me to the point where it is hard to be attracted to anyone (physically/sexually) without features like that. In other words, like some men have physical types like redheads or big girls or girls with glasses, mine happen to by asian features.

It is distressing to me because I google this issue and most of the other guys experiencing this say it is because of the sterotypical cultural traits such as traditionalism and shyness/obedience asian girls show. It is NOT that way for me, and I feel disgusting like I am some kind of pig objectifying girls because I find their physical traits attractive.

It has made it hard for me to find a partner/girlfriend as I do not find any other race physically attractive and i don't know why.

I am just confused and upset and I don't know what to do. It's strange and pathetic and my view of myself because of this is shown clearly in this throwaway's username.

TL;DR - Am white guy. Only asian girls are physically attractive to me. Can't feel sexual attraction to white/black/arab/any other race and IDK why. Feel like a terrible person for having a physical type because it is based on race not just "red hair" or "petite" and I am having trouble finding a partner because of this physical type preference.

reddit managed to nail his issue within an hour of the post going up. can you figure out the Mystery of the Asian Fetishist? (it's not the usual reason!)

I [18 M] received kidnap threat from my [22 M] Tumblr fan who has discovered where I live.

quote:

I run a popular gay pop culture Tumblr and often update people on my love life, I received a message in April of this year after being broken up with by a guy who wanted to treat me right.

I received further messages from him which gradually grew creepier so I stopped replying. He felt he knew me, and I'm really not an oversharer - so he was piecing together these small parts of me to form some magical guy which I'm really not.
I mentioned in a post that I wanted an Instax camera, and the next day when I arrived at the gym I go to, I was given an Instax camera by the receptionist (Who's also a classmate, not a friend however.) who stated it was left on their doorway with my full name attached, I brought it inside to avoid it being stolen but I received a message while in the gym from him saying "Glad you liked my gift."

I decided to call my friend to pick me up so I could leave the gym, and gave the camera back to reception. Which, by the way wasn't easy considering how bad I wanted it - anyways back to the point.

After I again didn't reply he started to send up to ten messages a day, some sexual, but none violent - until this morning I received a message in which said he "Couldn't wait to kidnap" me and was gonna make me gag on that...you get the point. I'm very scared, but I'm even more scared knowing that if I call the police - he could accelerate his obsession with me and make that kidnapping fantasy a reality. I'm currently staying at my friends house, the one who picked me up, as my family are away - they aren't happy with me being a blogger and telling them about this will only make them demand I delete my blog, which is my only source of income and at times - joy. What do I do?
