Name one reason why you shouldn't be banned for life.

At this point "being friends" is more akin to "managing to not hate each other afterwards".


Mate, do yourself a massive favour and cut contact. You need time to heal. No friendship is going to be possible right now and deep down you know that, so don't try to pretend and just do what's best for you. You don't need anyone's approval, least of all hers.

Moderation would have to be terrible to ban someone for asking a question. What is it specifically that makes "cheating" something to mention, let alone be hurt by? I'd just like to know.

I agree with Kjas. If it is a matter of "we'll tolerate each other" then it's better to just be done with it. It is not a good idea to have people in your life who you "try not to get at their throat", if you don't truly and genuinely think spending time with her is good, and things are going to be this strained, then I'd have to ask why would you bother to maintain contact.

Also Pabbicus, cheating means breaking the trust that has been put on someone else. Trust is one of the most important things in a relationship, to the point that if there is no trust then there should be no relationship.

I still reckon a boys night in with lots of shooting games, ice cream and Fast and Furious movies is the way to go.

More or less what the current situation is like, hence quotes around "friends".

Well the thing is she's liable to be around the university I'm at for at least another year in the same department as me, and potentially in one of my social circles. I'd rather things not be tense when we inevitably cross paths. Keeping things cordial is to both of our benefits.
