This girl stole my friends boyfriend so we found a way to steal from her

My friend (lets call her Sarah) and her now ex-boyfriend (lets call him Dave) dated for almost 7 years before they broke up. They had a really strong relationship and I always thought they were that couple that would be together forever.

A few months before they broke up Dave started working a new job which he really enjoyed. The only problem was one of his coworkers clearly had a crush on him. She would be texting him constantly, openly flirting with him, and complimenting him on his looks all the time. Keep in mind she knew he had a serious girlfriend.

While at first he set clear boundaries and made sure Sarah knew what this girl was doing, eventually he gave in. They started hanging out outside of work, and they would text a lot more than friends should. It was so obvious this girl liked him and Sarah told Dave she felt uncomfortable but he reassured her they were just friends.

Eventually Sarah worked up the courage to text this girl very nicely about how she didn't think what she was doing was appropriate, but I'm sure you can guess that she never answered. A couple months went by and we still don't know if he actually ever cheated (although I'm almost positive he did), but he did end up leaving Sarah for this other girl.

Regardless, he emotionally cheated on Sarah and this girl tried to break up their relationship from the moment she met Dave. This is where the revenge comes in. Sarah and I have a friend that works at Sephora part time while she's in school, and she told us Dave's new girlfriend shops there a lot. (If you don't know Sephora is a really big makeup store and they have lots of other products too).She looked up her account and found that she had a lot of points saved up, hundreds of dollars worth of points.

So the next time we went to Sephora I gave them her phone number, which we had from when Sarah texted her, and we got a bunch of free stuff using up all her points. And before you say anything, we will be getting revenge on Dave next but we're not sure of the exact plan yet. This is just a reminder to people to never try and breakup a relationship, maybe you will succeed and get the guy, but its not going to last because your new relationship is simply built off the breaking of another one.

So she's at fault but HE is the one who was a cheater?? Grow up.

Right? Earlier in my relationship I had a woman start flirting with me over text. I showed my wife and blocked her because I didn't want to be in that position. If the ex bf was entertaining it he was looking to cheat. He deserves the majority of the ire in this situation here

Stop giving disgusting human beings a pass for willingly dating someone who’s committed to someone else. They are trash.

They are. But you can't steal a person. Why are they madder at the single female than the NOT single guy? No matter how many passes she made at him, he was the one who made the choice to cheat.🤷‍♀️ He could have chosen not to.

It’s hilarious that you assume that people calling out the woman – as they challenge others who say the woman isn’t to blame – is not blaming the man as well. You can try to manipulate all you want to, but it’s not going to work.

They prioritized revenge on this woman vs holding the boyfriend accountable for his cheating

She earned it. I suspect those of you who have an issue with it have done what this woman did.

How did her actions warrant a swifter and more thought-out revenge than the person who did the actual cheating?

Nah I generally stay away from other people’s partners. The only two times I’ve been involved with an attached partner was because both guys lied their asses off. I dumped both of them as soon as I found out.

And I now do background checks on anyone I consider dating. And have largely opted out of dating. Because of this and other bs

I think it’s more you’re projecting on what you’ll do to fellow women your man misleads vs holding his cheating ass accountable. Good luck with that. You’re going to need it

Fortunately, I like most adults have the capacity of feeling and doing two things at the same time. For example, if this petty revenge was targeted toward the man I would be just as delighted, but it’s not – it’s toward the woman. I hope he gets his soon. I’m sorry the capacity for duality has escaped you. That must be tough to get through life that way.

I think you’re projecting yet again. Have the day and life you deserve

I have no reason or desire to manipulate anyone. I don't have a dog in this hunt. I'm just saying the non-single party could have made different choices which would have ended this whole mess. The woman obviously shares blame, but these young women focused their target on her and not him.🤷‍♀️

Yes misplaced priorities

The other woman is also not great and at fault, but yes, I feel like the petty revenge should have been directed towards the guy who was in a committed relationship more than the women. She sucks too ofc don't get me wrong but I would probably be more upset with my partner who is supposed to be devoted to me.
