Just as a side note....I am assuming you are both fairly young. In that vein, it could be a very simple situation that comes from inexperience and working through maturing and learning. That's where the intent comes in.....it may have been something he was really just trying to do what he thought was the right thing.....and finding out down the road that honesty is better than a lie. If that is the case, do you think it would be easier to forgive and move on?
