user: Given a post that is a real-life anecdote of a complex ethical situation and an associated claim about its type, verify if the claim is true or not. The claim asks if the posts are historical or hypothetical. The posts are "HISTORICAL" when the author has already done something and they are "HYPOTHETICAL" when the author is considering doing something in the future. Say 'yes' if the claim is true otherwise say 'no'
Example: CLAIM : The following post is HISTORICAL. POST : Background: I have ocd and the only contamination issue I have is around food. Both parents know this. What has lead me to ask this question is this mornings reaction from parent B.

This morning parent b offered to make me breakfast, I responded how I always do: that’s very kind but I’m happy to come make it myself. Parent b said it was no trouble. I accepted. Two slices of toast came and apu I check the toast for signs of mould. First piece had no issues, I ate it. Second piece however had something green growing on the edge. I cut this bit off but I couldn’t shake in my head that the whole piece must be contaminated and so I took the toast back and apologised that I couldn’t eat it cos of the mould and we checked the date on the bread and it said the 30th December. Nearly a week past its best before. Parent b apologised and we threw it away. No drama.

Nearly identical situation occurred about 6 months ago with parent a. Parent a offered to make me a toasted sandwich. I said that would be very kind but I was happy to make it myself. Parent a said it was no problem, I accepted. When the sandwich came I checked the bread for mould and found green and white stuff growing down one side of the bread. I take it back to the kitchen and explain that it has mould and I’m sorry but I can’t eat it. I will make myself something else. Parent a goes ballistic. I’m “ungrateful and don’t trust them and did I really think they’d feed me mould?” I pointed out the mould- clearly visible. “Well someone must’ve not sealed the bread package properly (ie me) and that’s how it got mouldy.” I asked if parent a had checked the date and that just seemed to escalate their reaction. They stormed out screaming and crying. I checked the bread date and it was 2 or 3 days past the best before.

Aita in either situation? Parent a’s reaction made me think I was. But now I’ve had the same situation with parent b and they didn’t get angry or pissed off maybe I wasn’t the asshole? Obviously I think I need to just make my own food. Then I can’t cause trouble.
Example solution: yes
Example explanation: The post clearly mentions an event in the past when the author asked some questions to his/her parents and also describes about their reactions on that day. Hence this should be HISTORICAL.

Problem: CLAIM : The following post is HISTORICAL. POST : (Possibly NSFW?)
So, the backstory for this is that my best friend of a few years recently became really good friends with this guy. He's a bit older than us and he's been dating this girl who's another friend of ours since last summer. They're very in love and they're very different people. He's always been known as sort of a manwhore and she's a very conservative Christian girl. He began going to church for her and changing his demeanor completely. He called down and began to seem much more mature.

He was very aware of the fact that she was saving herself for marriage before they began dating and knew exactly what he was getting himself into. Recently, he started texting my best friend and flirting more than he ever had. He's always been one to make dirty jokes and flirt with even his male friends, but this was very different than the usual jokes. He sent her a list of everything he found attractive about her and at some point he mentioned how pent up he was because his girlfriend won't do anything more than kiss him.

Eventually he brought up the idea of sending each other pictures and messing around. She told me all of this very soon after it happened and seemed to feel no regret about any of it. She wanted to continue everything with him and apparently fell in love with him because of this. He sent her random dick pics and said "Maybe one day, baby," in response to her wanting to have actual sex with him if they ever "accidentally" ended up alone.

Fast forward to a few days later and he texted her that he regretted the whole thing and they could never do it again. He said he loved his girlfriend and didn't want to lose her. She was extremely upset about this because she believed he loved her back and wasn't happy with who he was dating. I thought she was being insane because he was finally coming to his senses about how what they did was wrong and she still didn't see it. I didn't tell her any of this.

That day, I was talking to a very close friend of mine (I've known him for 9 years) and was ranting about how I wasn't sure if I should talk to the guy, who I'm sort of close with, about how he needs to come clean or tell his girlfriend myself. The next day I found out when my best friend began screaming at me that my close friend had accidentally let the whole situation slip to someone who told the guy's girlfriend himself.

The girlfriend is a very nice girl, she hasn't even broken up with her boyfriend because she believes he won't do it again, but she's obviously destroyed by the whole situation. She broke down and told a bunch of people that I was the one who let it out and now there's a whole hoard of friends of that couple and of my best friend who are pissed at me for telling someone.

My best friend thinks this is the worst thing that's ever happened to her because the guy won't talk to her anymore and she "just wants to be friends" now. She thinks the only thing she did wrong was telling me, not helping a guy cheat on his girlfriend.

AITA for getting involved?

TL;DR: I told someone about a mutual friend cheating on his girlfriend while trying to figure how to help, and now everyone we know has heard about it.
