Guy Dumps Cheating Girlfriend ON AIR!

[acedawg00-02]

There is a huge difference between being seen kissing an old boyfriend in a bar by a friend of your boyfriend's and airing the entire sad event on radio.

Honestly, there is no difference between the two...both are unacceptable. And once again, if she had a modicum of decency and self-respect, she would NOT have put herself in that position in the first place. She was in a relationship...not playing a kindergarten game of "play-house."

I think we all have made mistakes...but repeatedly? When do you grow the hell up? You're not only playing with someone's emotions but you're using their finances, their time...and playing a dangerous game with their life/health!!

...but this guy, who had spent 5 years in love with this woman, who seemingly loved him back, despite the indiscretion, has blown any chance he had to make things right.

Not trying to be funny, but this is slightly laughable. Who's to say that he wants her back in his life? Are you aware of the number of good, self-respecting, and honest women out there...who are willing to do right by their mate? I'm quite sure that this guy doesn't live under a rock...he doesn't have to settle.

I think that she blew any chances when she: A)cheated B) still couldn't even come clean when asked. "The best lessons in life, are the ones you pay for..." and hopefully she learned from this.

Still, no one has to take that crap...unless they have some serious self-esteem issues.

I tell most of my female friends..."if he's cheating and has no respect or appreciation for you, there's someone out there who will do right by you." And yes, it's sometimes easier said than done..

This young man will meet someone who will do right by him.

It's about knowing your worth, your value and loving yourself.

Ask yourself, "would I treat myself this way?"

If not, tell 'em to pack their bags and leave the key on the counter.

I love you, baby...but you gotta take that stress and drama somewhere else...

LOL!!

I have to say that I agree with srmom. The tramp deserved to be dumped, but on the radio? He lost the high road when he turned to the radio.

FYI, an accident somewhat similar to this happened on the radio station I listen to. The station was later sued - and lost - but I forget what grounds the plantiff used. We have some crazy laws, though.

I agree that both actions were unacceptable as well - I even stated that in my last post.

"Whatever one sows, that will he also reap." Not my words...I think they come from Galations 6:7.

Again, if you treat people right from jump...you should have nothing to worry about - no pain...no shame.

I'm with srmom and honey. The couple's business should've remained private. I felt guilty just listening to the clip.

I'm pretty sure Paul's message in Galations is not about revenge. It's a good principle that comes from Galations 6:7; I think our dumper would benefit from reading it. It might inspire him to consider whether he really wants to sow seeds of mean-spirited retaliation.

That's not how I postured the quote...it applies equally to the both of them...

That was my point. When you initially posted that verse, you seemed to be applying it only to the dumpee. The dumper will reap what he sows, too.

I'm surprised someone would try to use bible lessons to support the guy's actions and condemn hers.

Exactly. I've been in a potentially abusive relationship; I've also been cheated on. That said, I understand the base urge to expose the person for being a terrible person who did a very hurtful thing. On the other hand, I know that my name and/or face would be tied to the public exposure of those actions as well. (Case in point: the woman who dated the Oracle guy and put billboards up about their relationship.) The best thing to do is end all contact with the person, pick yourself up, and start all over again.

The pain of most breakups, no matter how terrible the relationship was, usually goes away quicker than you think. Being connected to something like this won't go away any time soon--for either party.
