Woman spots her boyfriend cheating on her thanks to his Halloween costume
A woman has had a Halloween to remember - and for all the wrong reasons after discovering her boyfriend had been cheating on her while at a costume party. The 22-year-old had long suspected her boyfriend of eight years was being unfaithful but was constantly reassured by friends and family because he "seemed like a great guy".
But her suspicions were confirmed in the worst possible way - and now her friend who was with her at the time is wondering if she did the right thing. The pal revealed that she had been invited to a last-minute Halloween party, and she brought along the woman in question because her boyfriend, a police officer, had said he had to work and couldn't do the couples costume she had planned.
It was a big party, the unnamed friend revealed on Reddit. And then, at 1am, "her boyfriend sort of just appeared in the crowd and when I saw the red football jersey my heart sank because about a minute later a girl dressed up as Taylor Swift came up and held his hand. My friend saw it and she immediately ran for a bathroom sobbing."
While in the bathroom, the heartbroken girlfriend kept fluctuating between despair and pure anger. She repeatedly demanded to be able to go and confront her boyfriend - but was stopped by her friend, who said she was concerned "she was going to do something that would end her up in jail". Eventually, the pal enlisted the help of a colleague to make her leave. "We ended up dragging her out and she made such a scene that her boyfriend finally noticed she was at the party and he took off like a scared rabbit."
Now it seems, their friendship has been left in tatters by the incident. The girlfriend is furious that she wasn't allowed to challenge her boyfriend at the time. "She called me a horrible friend for not believing her for the past few weeks. I said I was so sorry. She said I'm a major a*****e for making her leave because she could have caught him in the act and made a clean break.

"I said she was scaring me with how she was talking in the bathroom. She said she's an adult and can make her own choices. She said it's going to be a long time before she can forgive me and left and I think she's blocked me on everything. I feel bad for the whole situation and I feel bad that I may have made the wrong decision."
People were quick to comment on the post and while many agreed with the friend for removing the girl from the situation, they did call her out for dismissing her initial suspicions about the cheating. One person concluded: "Not the a*****e for removing a drunk, upset friend from a volatile situation. But you are so thoroughly the a*****e for dismissing her out of hand, because her boyfriend 'seemed like a great guy'. People who 'seem like' good people cheat all the time - they don't generally walk around with 'I am a philandering jerk' tattooed on their foreheads. If she had cause to be concerned, as a friend, you should have at least heard her out. It's not likely that your friendship will survive this."
