Dear Margot: Flirting Scandal

Dear Margot,

“I found out my gf was flirting with someone else but they swear it didn’t mean nun. Should I believe em or just break up?”

Hey, reader! This seems like a very serious situation. Now I know you’re feeling doubt about her explanation and that’s perfectly fine, your feelings are valid but before you make a decision there are many factors to take into consideration because there are a lot of ways to look at the situation. On one hand, it really could’ve meant nothing, but on the other hand, there really could be something going on.

Instead of breaking up, I think you should test her and what I mean by test is just watch her actions. If you notice the same thing continuing to keep happening even though you’ve talked to her about it then that’s when you should break up. 

Now, the reason that you could just break up with her is because as your partner she should know better and respect you enough not to do something like that. You also have to think about yourself too in this situation. You know you wouldn’t do that to her, so you should expect the same. And the fact that she said it didn’t mean anything instead of apologizing makes it seem like she’s trying to justify it which, to me, seems like she doesn’t really care about your feelings and concerns. But like I said, you should test her actions and see if it happens again.

I hope this is able to help you and I hope you can resolve the situation without breaking up because it seems like you care about her, but if it comes to that you have to do what you have to for your sake. 

Hope this helps,

Margot
