How is it that no one has pointed this out?


The movie is about the rules of what you're supposed to do in certain situations in a relationship. Apparently, when you find out your boy/girlfriend has cheated on you, you have to go through petty games just to make him/her feel guilty. The ending made it look like SHANTE regreted doing of all that. But they still skipped the most important thing: SHANTE & KEITH never talked about it. Isn't that what relationships are all about? When someone cheats tends to be for a reason, usually that he/she is unhappy.

...But Keith never cheated. So there was no need for the conversation.
I think she knew he hadn't cheated, but she wanted to punish him anyway for going out to dinner with that girl after work. He did lie to her though.

Now that I think about it they did have a conversation when they were in the restaurant where she dumped him. He was explaining his actions, but she wasn't trying to her it, and while he was rambling on she was thinking about her next move.
