Adulterous Advice
As a friend it is your duty to let those you care about know that their significant other is most likely going to cheat on them. Letting you know that you are being cheated on is what friends are for. As appalling as that might sound to you just take a moment to listen in on these two friends’ conversation and then think about whether or not it sounds familiar to you.
friend 1: so next week we should get together and catch up.
friend 2: oh so you’re are finally going to have some free time from that full time job you call a relationship?
friend 1: I don’t know what you are talking about I’ve just been really busy
friend 2: yeah, getting busy
friend 1: wow, don’t be so jealous
friend 2: yeah, because I don’t get mine. So your boyfriend is leaving town i take it.
friend 1: yeah, he’s like going on vacation with his family and a couple friends
friend 2: couple friends? what the fuck, how come you aren’t going?
friend 1: because it is pretty expensive and his parents would only pay for him
friend 2: how long is he gone for?
friend 1: ten days
friend 2: and you trust that he wont do anything?
friend 1: what do you mean?
friend 2: you know, like he might meet someone there who gets him going, and he might do something he doesn’t want to tell you about
friend 1: thanks, now i feel much better about the whole thing
friend 2: well, you know its what happened to Lindsey
friend 1: do you think he would do that
friend 2: you did say he was going with a couple friends right? and he is planning on taking his penis with him right?
friend 1: buh-but he wouldn’t be so stupid. he wouldn’t do that to me
friend 2: how would you know?
And just like that the pieces start falling apart. Trust begins to crumble b/c one person you trust brings up the chance that you might be wrong about someone else you trust.
You may be saying to yourself “friend number two is such an asshole” or “why don’t these people have name” or “where does she getting off saying that.”
Fortunately I can not only ask questions for you i can also answer them.
First of all, they do not need names b/c they do not exist. You are right in calling the accuser an asshole, but that doesn’t mean she isn’t right. We all have thought about it. Well, all of us who have been in a relationship. I understand there are losers who are eternally single, but do not worry there are plenty of blogs for them (to write). Lastly, in today’s day in age you should learn not to assume those two were women. in other words it doesn’t take ovaries to have that conversation.
But this is your duty as a friend. You need to bring up the tough topics. It is imperative that you provide those you care about with some perspective. This is why your friend’s significant others are never good enough. They just want what is best for you. And you should probably heed their advice as cheating has become more prevalent than ever, even affecting the beautiful people. An article from the Shaadi times explains the upswing well.
Some even believe it is in our nature to succumb to infidelity.
Evern postulating that it may be better for the human species as a whole
Your love needs to be tested though, so relish the moment. If you make it through unscathed you might have something special.
Don’t be fooled though you might just be going out with someone who is unable to attract the opposite sex but would love the chance to.

Some random stuff to end on:
I do not know about you but I can’t get “21st century” by the Chili Peppers out of my head
I wish more people would write more blogs. I definitely like reading them more than writing.
When did trying become uncool? Who chose that it was weird to care?
People think President Bush is ruthless for his
administration’s handling of guantanmo and abu gharib. Yet these same people have no problem praising Che Guevara even though he executed 156 Cubans who were already imprisoned. If someone killed 156 Americans they were holding as prisoners by shooting them in the back of the head as they proclaimed their freedom would you wear their image around town. I’m sure there is someone waiting for that chance so just let them know. Maybe I’m just forgetting that 156 Cubans doesn’t equal 156 Americans in most people’s eyes. I see his face on your shirt and think about how he would have wanted me dead if we lived in the same era and area.
Keep on rockin’ in the free world!
