@mwollen,
Count me in with ehBeth on this one. Your friend had no business asking your BF anything. If you put her up to doing it for you, then you should be ashamed and beg your BF for forgiveness.

No, your friend told you because she wanted to cause trouble between you and your BF. If I were a betting man, I would bet your "friend" has the hots for your BF and wanted to cause the two of you trouble.
Quote:Should I believe him when he says he didn't cheat and that he felt pressured into saying yes by the questions he was asked or is he actually lying to me?
Who knows? This is what happens when you let others get into your business. It sows seeds of doubt where there were not any previously. Look, if you had no doubts about him before your "friend" butted in, then you probably should not doubt him now.
One last thing. I think your BF is a bit immature. His only response to your "friend's" text should have been "None of your damn business." And then he should have ignored her or blocked her. He needs a lesson in how not to let others butt into a relationship, just as you do.
