Nah... it was a long time ago. If things have been good in the past 5 years why even bring it up. What the hell does "dusted" mean? Is that an euphemism for being high?

raiders agony auntYou were betrayed by both your boyfriend and your friend. You have to honestly sit down and think is this something you can let go. Its bad enough that he cheated on you but to do this with a close friend of yours makes it even worst. They are both guilty and the way I see it if you stop talking to one than you should stop talking to the other since they both committed the same crime.

tennisstar88 agony auntIt takes two to tango. Your friend and your boyfriend are guilty as charged. Just because she's a "ho" doesn't justify her actions for boning your man. What does "dusted" mean? As in high? So what, he's still aware of his actions..it's the same as alcohol it's easier to blame it on a vice than take responsibility of your actions.

Truthfully, you should write out the both of them..your friend is a piece of trash, who has a goal with sleeping with the whole city. And your boyfriend dabbles in drugs, not healthy when you have 2 children. Not to mention illegal. Both are bad influences and neither can be trusted anymore. Can you ever trust him again after he deceived you like that?

So it happened 5 years ago, but you only just found out about it?

It's natural for it to be a shock but is something that happened 5 years ago worth ending your relationship over?

Because if you can't get over it and stop holding it against him then he will end up resenting you too, and your relationship will just slowly fall apart before you know it.

I think if you really do have an "almost perfect" relationship then you will both be able to get past this. Concentrate on the feelings you have for each other now, and had for 5 years. Surely 5 years of history and a couple of kids is worth it?

You don't tell us when he admitted this to you. Is it something you discovered recently or have known for some time? From the sounds of it he slept with your friend when you two hadn't been together that long and possibly before the 'serious' stage? how old are you/were you? we need to know more to comment properly I think.

if you knew this some time ago (ie, he confessed before either or both of your children) then you probably shouldn't have even had children with him so soon.
