The 20-year-old detailed his experience on the popular Reddit forum 'Am I the A------,' a place where Reddit users can go to seek input about interpersonal dilemmas. In his post, the Redditor explained that one of his 'friends,' whom he clarifies is 'more or less [an] acquaintance,' kissed someone who was not her boyfriend during a recent night out. The man also explained that while he wasn't there to see the kiss for himself, he learned about it through a group chat. The man went on to explain that he then got one of his friends — who he says is 'not connected' to the situation — to anonymously message the boyfriend and 'let him know.'

The original poster (OP) said that he would normally have told the boyfriend — whom he has only met "once" — directly, but he was trying not to get anyone in his group chat involved. However, the OP said that the rest of the people in the group chat ultimately found out what he did and have since told him he should have stayed out of it. The OP said that while he understands where his friends are coming from, he believes that 'if someone's cheating, people should be saying stuff as soon as possible.' 'Am I the a------?' he asked his fellow Redditors. The vast majority of the man's fellow Reddit users said that they think he made the right call and that he's not the bad guy in this scenario.

'NTA [not the a------]. TBH [to be honest] I'd reconsider the friendship with those people who saw and didn't say anything to the boyfriend,' added someone else. After reading the various comments, the OP said that while his friends made some 'valid' points about his actions 'affecting certain situational things' he has still not apologized — nor does he plan to." '[I am] am sticking by my actions,' he said. Read the original article on People
