It is usual for all of us to get experience of cheating by our close friends. Once I was cheated by my close friend for a lesser amount which he has to owe me. Even though the amount is small, I am totally disappointed with his attitude of cheating. It is unforgettable because I had a great belief on him and after the incident I did not want to see him . However, he came again in my life for reconciliation . What shall I DO THEN ?

i would have reconciled with my friend in such situation. it is very easy to break any relation, the difficult is to maintain one. if your friend wants to reconcile with you, please talk to him and if you have any grudges, talk about that and mend the relation.

yes, there is no harm in talking and being a little cautious in the future. the friend has approached for reconciliation. people always have a guilt when they do something wrong. if possible we should give them a chance to come out of that guilt. but yes, dont make a fool of yourself and be cautious in the future.

Once a friend of mine cheats at me, I will be her/his friend anymore. Sure, I will forgive him/her but it won't be the same like before. Our relationship will have a gap.

I think i won't want to do anything much about it.. except of course if i would be direclt affected with what he has done, or cheated me on.. i guess though i would just let it pass except if he or she tries to bug me still by then i would have to defend myself

You should forgive him. It's nice that he made the effort to come to you and apologize. It can be hard when our friends disappoint us and we trusted in them. I hope that you have become reconciled.

Ask him/her why did he/she did that to you.Because everything as all reason why did he do that.Let her explain why did he do it.Give him/her chance but he or she will break your rule and that the time you will forget him/her as your friend.Everyone take mistakes, we are not perfect person in earth.so give him/her chance.

I cannot judge your friend's virtue just based on this. Now that you know his weakness, as a friend, isn't it your duty to make your friend stronger? It isn't necessary that you would have to endure another treatment like the one you experienced again. But you can be there to tell your friend about his mistake. If your friend won't listen for the second and third time, I guess that's the only time that you leave may your friend to his own. Still be friends with that person but not so close anymore...
