It's a bit late so I cant really type well or anything super-amazing like be cognitive so just lemme lay this out and then you can enjoy and be pithy and clever and such.

You find out your girlfriend (or boyfriend if you're in to that) is cheating on you. What do you do?

There must be a whole list of things you can do, ranging from homicidal rage to a fairly mature and adult response to something akin to naivity or being a pussy.

I'm interested in how you folks would react.

Throw her out and never speak to her again.
Once more into the breach, my friends, once more. We'll close the wall with our dead. In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

If I had a cheating girlfriend, smile bitterly and ask if the person she's cheating with gives her better O's. If a boyfriend, no words, just nutkicking.

Which I'm told hurts very much XD

Say "goodbye" and leave. If prompted for further discussion a hearty "fuck off."

Act like nothing's wrong, and bring the whole thing up in a crowded public place...cause the biggest scene possible and completely demean her infront of everyone.

Kill myself by slashing my wrists, but with a funnel set up to make the blood go into her gas tank.

Ok, actually I have no idea. Odds are I would just break it off, and act like I still want to be her friend, while inside I hate her more and more with each passing day. I bury alot of bad emotions like that. Someday I'll snap.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

You just have to decide if the pain of betrayal is too great for forgiveness.

I'd cheat on her, then we'd all meet in a public place and have an awkward moment. Bonus points if the ones we are cheating with are cheating on each other too.

Same thing I did last time someone cheated on me.

Me and her happened to be in a particular group (theater) and news of her treachery circulated quickly. Since I was pretty angry, I used the feelings of fury directed towards her by the rest of the group to make everyone pissed off at her until she came begging for forgiveness.

I don't recommend that, though.

I know that story sounds bogus, and I didn't advertantly force people to hate her, it just worked out that way.

Maybe throw together a powerpoint presentation?

Pretty much just the standard getting pissed at them and let them know how much of a stupid mistake they made, then cut off the relationship and never see em again.

Then, maybe go sleep with some of her female friends which will admit the act.

Seems most everyone goes for the 'anger' or 'revenge' root while one or two offered the idea of 'forgiveness'. Interesting.

Anyhow, anyone got any more advice, keep it coming.

While I'd REALLY like to say "I'd just break it off", I can't. I'd talk with her and find out her reasons. I'd see what was going on and see just how "bad" she cheated. Then I'd go from there.

I know my current girlfriend wouldn't cheat on me, though, so I'm not worried about it.

It's happened to me before, I told her she's welcome to be friends with me if she stopped seeing the other guy, but we could never be romantic again. She's still with that other guy, so we never talk anymore anyway.

I would allow her to make it up to me. Any attempt to do so will involve whips, chains, ropes, and leather straps, all used over a three day weekend and frequently throughout the relationship afterwords.

If I can, make her pay for the toys. That way, if the relationship goes south again after that, I can at least get some free S&M toys out of it.

I find that most problems can be solved by excessive violence.

That sounds absolutely brilliant. Dunno if I'd have the patience or temperment to do that, but if I did, it's something I'd do.

Reminds me of some story I read somewhere, where there was a soon-to-be-married-couple. The bride was cheating on the groom with his best man, and instead of blowing his cool and confronting her when he heard, he hired a private investigator to get pictures and all sorts of various evidence.

He went through with the wedding as though nothing was wrong, and then at the reception dinner he provided everyone with envelopes with the pictures inside with strict instructions to wait until HIS toast to open them. It came his time to toast, he told everyone to open their envelopes, and proceeded to explain what a whore his wife was. He then left, leaving the bride to pay for the ENTIRE wedding. Humiliation AND debt! Wonderfully orchestrated for the ultimate payback.

Premarital sex isn't worth it! You can catch AIDS, or cancer, or testicle weevils, or a bad body image or rickets. You know what IS worth it? Making love to Jesus. Because you can't knock Him up and He'll never ask what you're thinking – cuz He already knows!
