I was kinda joking mate. The reason I made out with the chick was for my boyfriend's own enjoyment. I thought I got that message across....obviously not...
All I am saying is that he should be given a second chance, I have never really cheated on anyone, so please don't try and use the "You are just trying to justify your own dodginess" argument.
You don't think people can change? That he will have learned his lesson about the pain and trouble this one little event has caused? Admittedly this won't be applicable for everyone, but it is worth giving him a second chance because it is possible.
Woops, I misread your previous post as 'kissing another boy', not girl. Honest mistake.
As for cheaters, they can change.. but I certainly wouldn't be confident in them changing. In other words, I would say it would be very hard for threadstarter's girl to trust him again.. and who could blame her? When relationships go a distance, the infatuation period ends and it's more based on companionship and trust. If those integral elements are not present, the relationship can be positively designated as stuffed. That's why cheating in a long-term relationship can be dreadful.
Simply put, I think he made a terrible mistake and (subjective point of view) I just don't think his offence is light enough to warrant her taking him back. I'm not going to vigorously fight this particular case however, because I know that he did it under alcohol. In other words, he can use the excuse that he was drunk (or more to the point, he was too stupid to realise these things could happen under the effect of alcohol
so his girlfriend should please forgive him for being so stupid and not realising this blatantly obvious fact) to try and get her back. So if threadstarter is to admit that, then sure.. I'll support the second chance notion. But if he insists he'll keep getting wasted like he did at schoolies whilst in a relationship, then he can go get stuffed.
