i had a chance to chat with a friend... he was just talking to me aabout something work related and then he asked if my seatmate was around.. i told him he was in another site.. he tthen opened topic about me and my bf.. i was answering his questions, which was just shallow how's your bf thing, etc... then he opened up that he suspects that his girlfriend is cheating on him. i told him he has no basis and that he should not think of it too much until he confirms that it is really happening... he said that he caught her a few times (she is much younger than him by the way) and also, he told me that he would break up with her already because their relationship has become one sided. i do not know this girl, i know this guy from work.. i appreciate that he telling me this and needs my opinion and values my feedback.. i just hope that i was able to help him decide for the best of them both. i just told him whatever makes him more comfortable... i even told him he would be missing this girlfriend.. and would want her back soon if he rushes to break up with her... if you were me, and a friend asks for opinion on this.. i know it could be a huge decision, life changing even... what will you say to your friend, when you want to just be level headed and not side on any one of them?

If a friend of mine knows his girl is cheating , I would do Exactly what you did. I would tell him that isn't going to be easy but he Has to leave. it will hurt but staying will hurt more. Then I would add that I'm here to help him cope.

If this guy already caught her girlfriend cheating on her then that's bad, supposed to be then on when he caught her then was the right time to confront her, but why did he still waits until this time? on your part its hard to advice, all you could tell him is just do what he thinks is best and what he thinks is right thing to do. goodluck on your friend then.

Caught her few times means more than once right?? So he should ask to himself whether he wants to break up or not because if you asked me then I would say yes, he should do so because he can't trust the girl anymore. I have give the same answer to some other discussions related second chances for cheating partner. Once is still okay but more than that...you could think what is actually going on.. He is not making assumption as he already have proves caught her with his own eyes..(^^)

Listen. If this guy caught his girlfriend once, wouldn't that be enough to say that their relationship is on the rocks already? And not just pebbles, but like boulders nearing the peak of the mountain. Hehe. But seriously, though... this guy should ask himself, why would his girlfriend do that in the first place, right? I don't think "just for kicks" would be a good reason. That's just total BS.

I'd just tell him to follow what he thinks is the right decision and don't look back or regret it. Decisions like these can be hard sometimes but it is even harder if you let other people decide for you.
