Gather round folks for we have a tale as old as time set in the internet age to remind us, cheating is bad and your indiscretions may well wind up as a thread on Twitter.
Do we need reminding doing the dirty on your partner isn’t considered good behaviour, for most of us, probably not. Are we going to grab the popcorn and enjoy someone’s misfortune of relationship choices? You betcha!
It all begins at the workplace where Twitter user @AyanaTheDiva had started a job just two weeks before taking to social media to tell her story.
We act alike, have the same taste in men. (I know this because when they come in the door we both be lookin at each other like) pic.twitter.com/RYNyWwzr9D

New jobs are daunting enough, so meeting someone on the same page as you is pretty cool. You spend half you’re life at work. This is a good beginning.
Office bants spark and Ayana and her mate get on like the proverbial house which is just as easily alluded to as an Amy Poehler/Tina Fey gif – I like her already.
So as you do, you get to sharing, and in this case the colleague shows a pic of her boo on Instagram.
The FIRST name in her search bar was my boyfriend's Instagram page … pic.twitter.com/o6NjO5pTrI

You know there’s trouble when the queen of side-eye appears in your feed. This is going to get juicy.
Accompanying side eye girl, Ayana wrote:

But she does pic.twitter.com/zgVM9MnxIE

Spoiler alert, she does:
So I'm like " so that's just your boo or your boyfriend" I'm still smiling acting so interested pic.twitter.com/U3mz6bvKSr

Keep it cool, keep it cool…
She posted:
So she’s like ain’t he fine , ain’t he fine. Omg how you know him. I just simply replied ‘we went to middle school and high school together.
So I’m like ‘so that’s just your boo or your boyfriend’ I’m still smiling acting so interested
She goes ‘girl that’s just my boo but we talk everyday we might as well be together’.

Ayana shows some real restraint here not launching immediately into her conniving colleague’s face and instead invites her home (where the boyfriend in question also lives).
Plot twist. The colleague lives in the same place.
So we hop in the car & she telling me about him & all the good times they've been having for the past year (we been together for 3 btw)
— Bodak Pink? (@AyanaTheDIVA) September 10, 2017
She goes "bitch omggg I live here"
Now I'm mad af but I'm keeping calm. It's just hard as hell now. But anyway I'm like "omg WHAT?!"— Bodak Pink? (@AyanaTheDIVA) September 10, 2017
Just unbelievable, right. Ayana plays devil’s advocate, suggesting the pair of pairs double date.
So I go "does your man live on this side too? I live with mine maybe we can double date" she's like no he lives an hour away I'm like ? pic.twitter.com/3z0oIsT2Pk

So girl we pull up at my house she's like this is crazy im only 6 houses down the street (let me find out this nigga be walking to her crib)
— Bodak Pink? (@AyanaTheDIVA) September 10, 2017
Ayana’s boyfriend’s car is in the garage, so going with the flow they go into the house where she pours her colleague a glass of wine and waits for the fireworks to explode.
This nigga comes out the bathroom and comes in the kitchen and sees her … THEIR FUCKING FACES WERE PRICELESS DO YOU HEAR ME!!!
— Bodak Pink? (@AyanaTheDIVA) September 10, 2017
His dumb ass gone say "what's up how are you" … she sick af in the face looking at him like pic.twitter.com/0FfwWteKRQ

Her colleague wasn’t impressed by Ayana’s approach to breaching the subject.
Ayana wrote:
She then looks at me and goes ‘Really Ayana? Why didn’t you just tell me ?? This is embarrassing I wouldn’t have done you like this’ [sic]

For the bants, doubly duped unnamed colleague. Obviously because bants.
I basically just say "thanks for the ride girl. No hard feelings , you can keep the glass" she really kept my shit and walked out ????
— Bodak Pink? (@AyanaTheDIVA) September 10, 2017
Ayana’s boyfriend saw the front door too:
In case you're wondering he has left the building. I'm currently taking a break from packing up his shit to tweet this story ?

After everything, Ayana and her colleague made up. She wrote ‘Me and her have talked yall. We are good… I APOLOGIZED TO HER. [sic]
But the fella, yeah, let’s leave this to Ayana to explain:
My ex still ain’t sh*t tho. No we are not together. I am visiting family while he’s at the crib getting his things . He gotta go. TADAY [sic]

Lessons learnt: be wary of your co-workers, don’t chirpse people on Insta if you’re already in a relationship, be prepared for your friends to flip out if you decide to keep them in the dark to make a juicy relationship breakdown thread on Twitter.
If only she got a video of what happened, like that chap who got caught browsing girls’ bums on the toilet. Then she could’ve made some big noise.
Also, make sure your phone isn’t connected to Apple TV at any given point and turn the volume down on your phone before you even open the internet browser. You know why.
