And if your best friend doesn't believe you they aren't much of a best friend.

It just seems like a lazy and selfish way to excuse yourself from an ethical problem AFAIC.

The point is to consider the situation and think about what you will do, Hammy. That's what makes thought exercises interesting because you imagine being in a tough situation and wonder what you will do. You're not supposed to turn around and go "nope won't happen",  you're supposed to consider it. Although if you don't want to, it's still okay, there is no pressure.

Actually it was me that was thinking about the situation. I didn't say "nope won't happen" but you DID say "People aren't going to believe you." and "you will cause conflict."

It was me telling you that you don't know that. But nice try with projecting and trolling your own stupid threads again. The OP should have been an ethical dilemma without sexual assault involved... and your response to me should have been non-retarded. This dilemma would have been better posed by almost anyone else on AF.
