Briefly News got the chance to ask @kulanicool (the one who shared the info) their views on the matter... and this is what they said:

"I think it must have been a case of her knowing what the challenges were within the relationship and using that to her advantage to gain access to the guy and later have it escalate to marriage."

Social media users share their views

While the situation is not surprising at all… the way the woman tried to defend herself, is! What was she actually thinking?!

Some feel this lady is better off without her ex and ex-bestie, but some do not see the issue with it as she and the guy were broken up already… Um, girl code?

Take a look at some of the comment

“No friend should have access to your relationship.”

@ThabiiDreyer:

“Some friends don't get told anything about the relationship but are still envious, just the fact that you seem happy and the guy is consistently present is enough for them to plot against the relationship♀️ it's Sad.”

@Nhluvuko_S said:

“Yooooo something tells me, the so-called friend knows what she did to the poor guy, she knows! Just thinking out loud.”

Yoh: Saffas spill the tea on why they cheated and the reasons will have you shook

We at Briefly News dared to ask a question many people don't want to know the answer to because sometimes ignorance is bliss. We asked:

"Have you ever cheated on your partner? Why did you do it?"

In fine style, Mzansi came out baring their souls and using a social media platform to air their dirty laundry. The comment section will have you in shock at the reasons people cheat and will make you feel like no one is safe from this five letter word, including you.
