Man poses with cheating girlfriend in shocking selfie that's gone viral

Word to the wise: If you’re going to cheat in public, scan the room.

As Lad Bible reports, an Argentinian man is getting the last laugh after he discovered his girlfriend kissing another guy. Rather than confront his cheating lover, he sat down next to her and took a selfie that’s since gone viral.

“My girlfriend (now ex) did not realize that we came to the same party,” the young man, identified as Mariano, captioned the shocking photo featuring his unsuspecting girlfriend.

The selfie currently has 68,000 likes. The viral moment prompted Mariano’s girlfriend to text him an explanation for her behavior — which he, of course, shared on Twitter.

Mariano told his followers that he hadn’t originally intended to post everything but ended up doing so because he felt so stressed.

In her texts, his girlfriend begs for forgiveness for her infidelity with the other man, whom she delicately describes as “Gordo,” or “Fatty.” She adds that she “can’t stop crying” and wants another chance. That Mariano has turned it into a joke makes her “head explode.”

When Mariano responds with a curt no, she calls him a bad name and says, “Don’t do this to me.”

More texts followed, but the two have split.

In addition to internet notoriety, Mariano has emerged from the situation with a renewed perspective on love. His latest tweet? “What you value, you take care of. Simple.”
