Hi there, there's a story i would like to share with everyone. (: I got a friend who got to know a guy through online. And i realized that when I made a phone call to her. she told me that both of them have already called each other names such as dear and etc. and this guy is one of her cousin's friend. therefore, she seems to be rather secure with it. till one day, they managed to meet up at a location whereby people may walked past them. She was at first, accompanied by her group of friends but soon they left her with him alone. they were chit-chatting at one corner till the guy suggest to her to go over to his place. and the worst scenario has occurred. When i was told about it, I got a shocked and rather disappointed with my friend. whereby, this guy seems to be just toying her feelings and etc. It was led to a greater surprise when this friend of mine told me that in fact, she did forked out a sum of money for the guy when he told her that he needs a haircut, something to eat and etc. I couldn't imagine a close friend of mine who i spent days with her for 7 years and now, she actually been in such a scenario. should i really blame the guy or both parties were in the fault ?

sigh i guess your friend must be a willing party for this to happen. there's really no fault or blame. please do not be offended but your friend 'paid' for the happiness this guy provided. not all of us are able to find someone who can make us happy. sometimes a person gotta 'pay' for happiness. it might not be money only. it can be our freedom, principles and even our life. if she sees nothing wrong with this arrangement, there's really nothing to get upset about. ultimately, the guy gave his time and made her happy right?

ithink your friend is at fault in this scenario... she should identify the guy's intentions

i think there is no one to blame for that/ it is not the fault of the guy if that girl gave money to him. it is for the girls discretion whether to give or not... but then she gave it deligently then its not the guys fault. Then, they have a relationship and maybe she do it because she thinks that they have a healthy relationship... what is important is they're happy with each other. it is better if you'll understand your friend and be ready for your support... that, don't think pessimistically over them because it is their choice... just be happy on them...

We need both hands to clap. So I would feel that both sides need to take responsibility for this incident. There could be love too depending on what is the true intention. It is very tempting for males to thread over the boundary and enter into intimacy. Both sides would need to practise abstinance...
