“Jaw With John” – Unfaithful Roommate Has Made His Bed

I recently found out that my roommate cheated on his girlfriend with one of our co-workers. He did this two times!

When I confronted him about his unfaithfulness he was honest and forthcoming. He also told his girlfriend (who lives in another country) and she decided to stay with him and work things out.

However, he still hangs out with the “other woman” on a one-on-one basis and she comes over to the apartment and lies on his bed with him.

I told him this is wrong and unfair to his girlfriend. I don’t want to keep challenging him on this, but I’m not sure what else I can do. — Trying to Stay Loyal

Dear Loyal:

He’s not going to change so why waste your breath? Let him reap what he sows when and if his actual girlfriend returns. You’ve done the honorable thing already in confronting him yet he has kept on doing what he’s been doing. Stop trying.

You can always give this “other woman” the stink eye or glare at her whenever she is over. You could try that…but that’s not going to change anything. She’s just as bad as he is. He’s living in a burning house but hasn’t smelled the smoke or felt the heat. He’s oblivious and should be left to burn.

“Jaw With John” – In This Situation: GTFO

I have two friends who happen to be cousins to each other — “Carmen” and “Angela.” Angela has been dating her boyfriend, “Jose,” for about three years. She talks about marriage.

I don’t think he’s a good guy but I don’t know if I should tell her. He has cheated on Angela with her cousin Carmen. He even spent a whole weekend with Carmen when Angela was away.

I wish Carmen hadn’t told me this. She has put me between a rock and a hard place. I’ve reprimanded her many times and have made sure she never talks to him again (as far as I know).

I’ve asked Carmen to come clean with Angela but she is afraid to. She feels bad about what she did, and no longer talks to Jose. She ignores his messages and calls.

I feel that if Jose did this to Angela with her own cousin, he might be cheating on her with other girls. Angela has had suspicions but always believes him.

I don’t know what to do. Angela does not deserve this but Carmen is my friend, and I would have to out her if I let Angela know about what happened. Also there might be a big family feud over this. What should I do? — Desperate to be a Good Friend

Dear Desperate:

I’ll refer you to something Terry Benedict told Rusty & Danny Ocean’s gang of 11:
