What will you do? (Ethical dilemma question)

RE: What will you do? (Ethical dilemma question)

Who hasn't had their best friends girl or guy hit on them?  You're all out partying, maybe she's a little tipsy....shit happens.  It signifies nothing.  It can be handled with a laugh and a smile "let's not do that again, okay?" - or am I missing something?

Not in my world. Sure, casual hookups are like that. People in a common circle kind of pass each other around. Once you're a boyfriend and/or girlfriend, that shit's off-limits. Even exes are off-limits in my circle. My best friend also has terrible taste in men, so there is that. Tongue

That shit just isn't cool. I'd feel utterly disgusted with myself. I'd also punch someone in the face if it was my best friend and significant other. If they can't even handle not getting slutty, how can you trust them with the big stuff?
