“What Would You Do In These Situations?”: The Ultimate Moral Dilemma Poll
Welcome back to another moral dilemmas poll, where we pick your brain a little by placing you in situations that demand certain calls to action. Do you truly know how you’d react if a friend did this or that, or a coworker said this and that about you?
This poll throws you into 23 compromising scenarios where morals clash with reality. There’s no score, no judgment, and certainly no hypocrisy here. Just the cold, hard truth about how you really think and act when no one’s watching.
Which begs the question: What do you do when there’s no clear right answer?

You’re added to a group chat where explicit photos of your ex are being shared without their consent. No one else seems to have an issue with it.
Why would other people have explicit photos of your ex? Does this mean the ex cheated, or is dating someone else in the group? Little confused over the wording.
It should read "Someone in your group chat hacks your phone..." or " In a fit of rage, I sent pictures of my ex to someone in my group chat...".
Load More Replies...Neither and both... I will leave the chat quietly just to let my ex know. Actually, nah, I've already sent my ex a text about it
I am lucky to have no terrible exes. Would never allow this to go unanswered.
It’s illegal in uk, ( not that I’d b e in a freaking group chat anyways lol but if I was ) I ain’t letting that happen it’s despicable even if I hated said ex ! and you can actually go to prison for doing that to
You find a wallet on the sidewalk with $200 in cash and a photo ID inside. It’s late, no one’s around, and returning it would take time and effort.
Keep it until the next work day to either drop it off at the right adress or the police or try to reach the owner, if that is possible.
I've had my wallet lost/stolen a few times. It's terrible to go through that. I would return it. It would weigh heavily on my conscience if I took anything.
Hopefully the ID has the correct address to which I can return the wallet and it's contents to the correct owner. If that doesn't work, try call the banks to (most ppl now a days have a bank card) inform the owner of the location of wallet. .
The wallet I once found was given back by me personally, I just took a look at the ID and went to the adress
I'd keep the cash and put the wallet in a postal box for the ID to get back to its owner. It's the policy here: postal workers will deliver the wallet to the police who can track the owner (because IDs are valid for years and don't necessarily show the owner's current address) I wouldn't feel bad about keeping the cash because I'm *very* poor - I sometimes can't even afford food. I'd consider that the person who loses so much cash doesn't need it as much as me because my wallet is chained to me at all times and I make sure to *never* lose even a five-cent coin, it can make a huge difference in whether I get to eat or not.
I found a wallet in a parking lot. No cash (and I prayed there hadn't been any cash in it when it was lot!), there was an ID. I searched the name on FB, and the match was a member of the local area group I'm in. So I pinged her via the group, and sent her a message on FB messenger. She was able to tell me what parking lot she'd lost the wallet in, and I got it back to her that same day. She was very grateful, asked if there was anything she could do for me. My mom had passed about a month and a half earlier, and I had been missing her terribly, so I said the only thing I really want right now is a hug. We hugged, it felt like a gift from my mama, and she went on her way.
It’s always right to make some kind of effort to return it—even if you can’t do it right this minute.
A friend confesses they’ve been cheating on their partner and are torn about what to do. You’re also friends with their partner.
you can encourage your friend to make the right choice without losing them. if they are a good friend they should value your opinion especially on something so blatantly wrong
"You've cheated, you know you're the bad guy here. I love you both, but you have to own up, you have a week.!"
Load More Replies...Both, while encouraging my friend to come clean, etc...i'm keeping quiet
It would have the first option except for the therapy requirement. Should have ended after clean.
It's not your story to tell. What an awful position to be put in. Encourage the person to come clean and then stay out of it.
I lost a friend who was cheating on his partner because I refused to help him do it. Naturally he told his partner all sorts of lies about me to explain the end of the friendship.
I lost a good friend because of this. She cheated with 3 different guys and was having an ongoing affair with one of them when she told me. I told her to break up with her bf or tell him the truth. She refused and kept insisting she loved him and didn't want to hurt him and didn't see why what she was doing was wrong as long as he didn't find out. I eventually told her that either she broke up with him or I'd tell him and she freaked out. She accused me of being jealous of her and trying to ruin her relationship, I just walked away and went NC, I tried to tell her bf but could never get a hold of him. (We were friends but i didnt have his phone no.) About 6 months later I found out he caught her cheating and left her
I would encourage them to clean up their mess on their own and remind them to not drag me into their relationship problems.
He didn't die. Like Elvis, he just went home.
Load More Replies...Go to therapy for cheating 😂😂😂jeez can’t half tell these are all USA based lmao ,therapy this therapy that ,can’t anyone living there deal with life on things like this on their freaking own 😂( I get the ptsd , the having been a b u s e d n sa,d but normal life ye gods n little fishes 😂) I’ll go with come clean but not the therapy bit 🤦♀️
You discover your favorite clothing brand uses child labor in its factories, but you see the most amazing jacket on sale that you’ve been searching for for ages.
So 50% of the people taking this quiz are saying they were knowingly enable child labour? That’s a harrowing thought.
True, but chances are we ALL are enabeling child labor, since pretty much everyone buys fast fashion.
Load More Replies...Yeah, I don't see anything amazing, let alone, on sale, produced by child labor that I would spend my hard earned money on. Nope
You’re invited to a close friend’s wedding, but you can’t afford a gift - not even something small.
Talk to them openly. They are my friends. They already know I‘m not rich. 🙄
this is the right approach. And perhaps make up for it later, when I can afford a proper gift.
Load More Replies...There is always something you can give, even if it's just your time and labor. If they're close, they know your situation and just want you there.
If they're the type who checks (and judges) on who gives a gift, maybe there's no need to attend their wedding.
I would hope that my presence at their day is more important than a gift
Sorry I’m not going lmao I do not do weddings ,or places where there are like PEOPLE , but I wouldn’t skip it cos I couldn’t ford a gift ,I’d skip it cos I hate parties n the like ,
During a late-night Uber ride, you notice the driver’s eyelids drooping and their head bobbing against the wheel - they’re clearly fighting sleep.
Dumb question lol This isn't a moral dilemma; it's common sense.
I'd keep asking them questions to keep them alert, if that didn't work, then end the ride.
Load More Replies...One second of such micro-sleep is enough for the driver to lose control and crash the car into something. I've witnessed such accidents. Not taking the risk. Also, talk to the driver and maybe get him a coffee. The caffeine temporarily blocks the sleep substance in the brain, so he'd have time to get home safely.
I would end the ride, but also call the police. Sorry not sorry, but if they're sleep deprived they shouldn't be behind the wheel in the first place. I would feel tremendous regret if they went along their way after I got out and learned they caused a bad accident or killed someone when I could have done more to prevent that from happening.
How about point out that they appear to be falling asleep and ask if they need to take a break or go home, and you'll catch another ride.
Your best friend is launching a small business and asks you to promote it online. You really don’t like their product and fear that reviewing something positively when you feel anything but will ruin your credibility and reputation with your audience
So many friendships have ended because of MLM shameless product promotion expectations placed on friends and family. I would tell a friend that I would prefer to keep the friendship and her business separate to avoid conflicting interests. It's a good business lesson for her to learn early on.
If this situation actually happens to you it's tough to negotiate. You want to support your friend, but want to protect your integrity. Had a friend who wrote a book which was terrible. I bought the book but declined to review it. So wish I could have loved it!
It depends on what their product is. If it's something harmful like diet pills, I'd obviously say no. But if it's something like their paintings or their songs that I don't personally like, I'd support them because I value friendship more than reputation and me not liking their art doesn't mean that all of my audience would dislike it as well. It's not causing any harm to anyone to share it.
I would decline for myself while also encouraging others who appreciate the said type of product to buy it if I could do so in good conscience.
I don’t like to mix business with friendship anyway, and I would tell them this.
I’d support it ,but I wouldn’t lie about it , I’d likely tell them I don’t like it , like no offence but it’s really not my cup of tea kinda thing , so I can’t really big it up ,
You meet up with your friend for an afternoon walk. Their hyperactive dog, excited to meet you, ruins your designer jacket. Your friend jokes, “Haha, he does that to everyone he meets! So funny.” They move on, petting and cooing at their dog
I could ask them to buy me a new one, but I know it's likely not going to happen. But I'm unsure how a dog ruins a jacket your wearing. I wouldn't be wearing such expensive clothes I didn't thrift, anyways.
It depends on the material, but it's very possible for a dog to "ruin" a jacket by excitedly jumping on you. Faux-leather can get scratched even by short nails, dogs' claws will obviously do more damage.
Load More Replies...If the dog is jumping up or biting then its highly likely down to poor training which is the owners responsibility
These questions are far too "black and white" for reality. Each of these have more than one way of resolving the moral dilemma.
A person is liable for the damage their pet causes in ANY circumstances, in ANY location. Unless we're saying the OP laid on the ground to wrestle with the dog, and we're presuming the dog jumped up on the person, then the owner is liable for the damage it caused. The dog should be better-trained to NOT jump on people, and the owner is aware of its negative behavior.
Load More Replies...My dog does this, unfortunately, he's 9 yro, super smart and super obstinate! I have tried everything to get him to stop jumping. I don't need him knocking down some elderly person, pregnant person or little kid. No jump harnesses have Zero effect. I have trained all of my dogs to not rush in the door, up/down stairs (especially not with humans on stairs), etc ... but this one? He refuses to comply with the no jumping rule. Good thing I don't hang out with humans much anymore. Not since COVID
Erm why the hell would you wear a poxy designer jacket to go dog walking lol , 🤦♀️who cares I,d be as excited to see the dog to lol plus I’d beholding my own two dogs 😂trying to answer these truthfully given I’d literally NEVER be in any of the situations bar the finding a wallet one so I’m answering hypothetical lol
You’re visiting someone’s house and their kid breaks something valuable - but the parents assume you did it.
If I had to be worried about someone's kid getting in serious trouble for accidentally breaking something, that someone wouldn't be my friend.
One would hope the parents wouldn’t go ott on the kid for a freaking accident , cos if they did I’d most def have something to say about that , although tbh teaching moment I’d tell the kid to fess up like now !!
You see someone shoplifting baby formula at your friend’s family-owned convenience store, which is going through a hard time financially. The person stealing looks desperate, not malicious.
I would give them money to pay for it, so they won't have to steal it.
Neither. I would buy the formula for them and then meet them outside and let them know about resources in the area that can help them. Morality isn't a binary of say something / don't say something.
If you see someone stealing a necessity….no you didn’t.
I’d either look the other way. , or id buy it for them , I’d never see kids or animals go hungry if i could help
Let the staff know and arrange to make sure that the person gets what he or she needs honorably.
I used to hang out with one girl who decided to steal something at a big box store, with me and her baby along, putting us both at risk of getting in trouble. She didn't do it out of desperation or need. Only because she wanted to save herself the money and not have to pay. It gives you a whole other perspective of shoplifters. I work in a thrift store, and see a lot of thieves who go in like they own the place. But then there are homeless people who come in, go to the staff asking for free clothing during winter. There are people who are willing to help. Maybe a customer would be obliged to pay for the formula if asked. Maybe the shopkeeper could put it on a tab. Maybe the shopkeeper knows about an outreach or family community program. I want to make it clear, though, that I don't blame parents for struggling to feed their babies formula. It's insanely expensive. I blame the companies for making it so unaffordable. I just don't believe stealing is the right solution.
It can be expensive. About 23 years ago I was paying $20 cdn for a can of Good Start, which was the only brand of formula that didn't give my daughter colic. Today, it is $53.97 cdn at Walmart. I'm not blaming parents for not being able to afford formula, though. I think it's criminal how costly it is, and it's the fault of greedy companies who are out of touch with the finances of parents.
Load More Replies...You’re in a war-torn country, hiding and protecting a group of civilians. One of the civilians' babies starts crying - loudly. The enemy is closing in quickly. If they hear the baby, everyone could die
"whatever means possible" just put your hand over its mouth or something no need to do anything drastic
This happened in the 1979 terrorist attack on Nahariya, Israel. According to Wikipedia: The mother, Smadar Haran, was able to hide in a crawl space above the bedroom with her two-year-old daughter Yael, and a neighbor – Sasson's wife.Smadar Haran accidentally suffocated Yael to death while attempting to quiet her whimpering, which would have revealed their hiding place.
Try to quiet the baby or use it as a decoy away from the rest of the group
You accidentally knock over and break a vase in a store. No one sees it happen.
Is the vase merchandise or just decoration? If it’s merchandise, I’d check the price tag before deciding. If it’s just decorative, it’s probably really cheap.
Tell the staff , n pray I don’t gotta pay for it ,oh n I can’t whistle 😂
I broke a top for a mug at a Kawaii store, accidentally. I paid for the mug with a 30% discount because he thought I was going to buy the mug anyways, and the top was broken. I guess he wasn't going to make me pay for it, but I decided to. It's still a cute mug and I use it everyday.
You’re having dinner with your partner’s family for the first time. Everything is going well until their parents casually make a racist comment, and everyone else at the table either laughs or says nothing.
Ugh, not a racist comment, but a political one. I called it out and my husband's aunt called me stupid. Very awkward, but no regrets.
This comment is hidden. Click here to view.
Load More Replies...I think there are ways to call it out. One example is to ask the person to explain themselves and then engage them in discussion, in a way that opens them to the possibility of questioning their beliefs.
This! I replied this same thing, then just read this. Thank you Mimi M :)
Load More Replies...Wow, 59% stay quiet to avoid making it awkward. That's 1614 people, as it stands, here on BP who would sit by idly and let people make and laugh at racist comments. Yet there are so many mouthy people here, keyboard warriors.
If it's one or two people doing it in a group, then I think a lot of people would call them out. But in this particular setup, the majority will just feel emboldened to dig into their racism even deeper if someone calls them out for it.
Load More Replies...The first time I met my ex-boyfriend's parents, his father told me I was taking a job away from men and that there was more important work for women to do (I'm a doctor, he meant I should stay home and have babies). I called him out, my boyfriend screamed at me in the car on the way home for embarrassing him. We didn't last long after that. His dad was a misogynist racist, sèxist, bigot moron and the son turned out to be not much better.
Yeah, men like them don’t deserve a significant other.
Load More Replies...There are ways to call it out, often simply questioning it. Like.. 'why is that funny? I'm not sure i 'get it'" and then wwatch them stumble to find a non-racist way of explaining. it can make it ackward but iits not rude and can move on from ackwardness quickly.. there are diffrent ways, thats just an example of one way i think works fairly well without being too disrespectful.
That’s the kind of thing I would do. Say something like, “Excuse me? What did you say?”

I immediately change the subject to my recent Ancestry.com DNA results where I discovered I'm 1/2 Nigerian, 1/2 Costa Rican, and 1/2 Unidentified.
There’s no real option to simply get up and leave, and speaking out in that moment (in their house, which is essentially an echo chamber) wouldn’t change their behaviour, only reinforce it. Worse still, it could put you at risk; racism rarely arrives alone, and it often drags along other unpleasant traits. As much as I wish I could say I would challenge it, the truth is I would probably walk away, Racism tends to stay no matter what is said.
Load More Replies...You’re reversing in a parking lot and accidentally bump into a parked car, leaving a small dent. No one sees you, and there are no cameras near by
Unless you had a good look at the car before, you won't always know if you really caused that dent or if it was there before. This is why a tow truck driver, or anyone working on cars, may take pictures of your car and close ups of the flaws before and after they touch your car. That way the car owner can't blame old damage on someone else.
In uk they will often pics ,cos u can bet someone will try the u did this shite can’t u lol
Load More Replies...If you have time, stay, but if you have an appointment or whatever, make photos, write a note for the owner of the car and give them your phone number, so they can reach you. (Where I live, insurance pays either way)
this is a false choice. There are more than just two ways to handle that.
I personally don't take my car out to go potty, I take it because I have to go somewhere. I can take a minute to leave a note, but I'm definitely not gonna "wait for the car owner to show up". What if they're sleeping or working at the store ? It could take them eight hours to show up, who really has time for that ?
Ahh your one of the 52% your really not a very nice human are u 🙄,u wouldkeep money ,aka stealing , u wouldhit a car n leave just wow
Load More Replies...I’d wait a bit , if no one showed up I’d leave a note , n the 52 % as said leave like it never happened are what’s wrong with this bloody world !!
A car is often the second most expensive purchase people make and w4nkers like the 52% on here are one of the reasons they lose money even more. Even if you’re not a “car person” how about having basic decency and respect for other people’s property?
You work at your best friend’s father’s law firm and regard him in a fatherly manner as well. One day, he hits on you out of the blue.
Are those really the only two possible courses of actions. I imagine most people would do neither of them.
Before doing either of these things, I’d talk to him about it. Say something like, “This is inappropriate and you’re making me very uncomfortable. Please don’t ever do it again.” If that didn’t work, I’d tell my friend first (so they hear it from me), then report it.
Or see if he's all right if this is out of character and encourage him to see a doctor.
. If my employer makes a pass at me, well, I ain't that kind of b*tch! Bossman has me confused with his own Ho-a$$ and if he continues, I'll call his wife
Your boss publicly praises you for a project, but deep down, you know a colleague did most of the work on it. Saying something would risk not getting that bonus you need for a down payment on your new apartment…
I always told the truth at work, even when it was against my own interests. One day someone else literally dropped a spanner in the works of the machine only I generally worked at. Thousands of pounds of damage and lost work. When the bosses came around to investigate I told them it wasn't me. They didn't ask again, and went to ask the rest of the staff. I was quite moved.
I consider my integrity far more important than money, which is probably why I'm flat broke but have also never stabbed anyone in the back.
Even setting aside the fact that crediting the other person is the ethically and morally right thing to do, I think most managers have a true appreciation for people who publicly credit others where credit is due. They know that you are a 'team player' and aren't just in it for yourself -- and a good manager wants a team that works well together and trusts each other.
I would correct the boss in front of everyone. Partly out of fairness, but mostly to correct the boss in front of everyone.
I’m not gonna steal someone else’s thunder , accepting money u didn’t earn is basically stealing from them !!nope soz ain’t doing that !
A friend submits a copied assignment and brags to you about how they got away with it. It would affect the class rankings and hurt your final score.
Your phone rings in a dark theater during a quiet, emotional scene. You thought it was on silent, so you hadn’t bothered to double-check. Everyone turns to look, and some are even cussing you out for the disturbance
How about silencing the phone as quickly as possible and ignore the angry glances?
I’d be watching Said film at home on my tele lmao bug screen n lying in comfort on my bed not wasting money ina cinema ffs however I would be so embarrassed in that sistation ,I’d be apologising profusely lol
You’re offered a dream job with an amazing salary and health benefits, but it’s at a company whose ethics you don’t agree with.
I was offered such job. I told them I wanted to be able to look into the mirror without being ashamed.
How bad are they? How long have I been unemployed? Do I have other options?
Depends, how high are the chances to get a job at an other company?
They won't even fork over the money to buy your soul any more. These days, it's more one of those subscription deals.
Load More Replies...I mean, this really depends on your situation in life. Several years ago, when I was among the 'unhoused', I would gladly have taken anything that would've gotten me out of my rut (aside from something which I saw was directly hurting others, obviously). It's easy to say, "Oh, I would never do such a thing," when you have a decently comfortable existence.
I was looking for a teaching job at mid year and was offered one. When I asked why the current teacher was leaving, the principal told me they were firing him and boasted about how they were going to sneak around state law and the teacher contract. I declined the position. But since I had been the local teachers union president where I lived before, I called up the local union officials and detailed what that principal was planning. The teacher kept their job.
I would be more surprised if I was offered a job with a company that actually had ethics at all. Name one, I'll wait. Meanwhile, I need money to live, so I'll do what I must until a better option comes along.
You come across a significant sum of money that was left by a deceased relative. They’ve been estranged from you for years, and no one else has claimed it.
How does it happen? Do you just find it in their house? How much is it? How many family members do I have? How close were they to the late family member?
Another commenter on another thread has billions in Weimar Deutchmarks. I myself have an iron nutzi 5 fennig. It's worth? 5 American cents
Load More Replies...If they've been estranged for years, what are we doing poking around their place?
Yes. Obviously the correct alternative is to tell all the other relatives that have a right to the inheritance and hope you get a reward.
Load More Replies...That would be really awkward, considering how toxic and a*****e my family is/was. I'd take the money, it would compensate for the years of therapy and for the skin reactions I still have when someone is screaming at me.
Same except me being 60 I don’t have any family left now , (mum died at hands of my father when I was8 mths old) , gran I grew up with died when I was15 n the pis father died erm hmm erm a good few yrs ago no idea how long but he is ,so I have no idea who,d be leaving me this ,but u can’t bet im taking it lol for my kids not me
Load More Replies...Not enough information in the question. But I would very likely tell the others. I already don’t have that money, so my life won’t get any worse.
In this case sorry I’m having it , cos all my relatives who are pretty much all 6 ft under thank god , so there would be no one else I’d take it n split it between my two kids , may be keep a few hundred but that’s it ,
You do the same as if the owner was alive. In either case, it's not your money. Now it belongs to the diseased estate.
You overhear something at work that could help a friend land a big opportunity - but you’re under NDA.
NDAs are designed to keep proprietary and other information from competeing firms. Disclosing information to an individual would really depend on whether that individual's possessing that information would harm the former employer. (If they were taking over your old position, the company might be advantaged by you unofficially filling in the new employee.)
I bet the same 40% that say they would tell the friend are the same people who scream about insider trading, nepotism, and people hired based on "who you know."
NDA,s are legally binding ,n USA love suing people I’m keeping shut lol ,
You see a mega celebrity after a night out, and they’re in a compromising, possibly career-damaging situation.
“Compromising” suggests cheating on a spouse or something. That I would probably ignore. On the other hand if I saw a celebrity a*****t someone or worse, i’m going to the cops, not the tabloids.
They are already harassed by paparazzi so unless it's a*****e behavior, I'd leave them alone.
I think a mega celebrity has the means to screw me over in court, even if their career is ruined they probably still could take me down too. As long as it's not a*****t, harrasment or worse I'd mind my business
Depends on what they are doing. Just something relatively normal, I let it go. Something criminal? I maybe take a pic
A pandemic has wiped out 90% of the population. You’ve managed to find shelter and supplies, but a coughing stranger shows up at your door with their child - begging you to let them in.
Very likely the child will be showing symptoms soon too since they've obviously already been exposed. Knowing my luck, I probably would've been part of the 90% that's dead >_<
the kid can come and I'll help it but if it's a good parent they should know the best thing they can do for their kid is to stay away if they're sick. give parent help from a distance until they get better or die. if so much of the world is dead what is there to live for besides helping others
I'll give them a parcel of food and supplies, and if possible, quarantine them.
It's just not that black and white. You could also tell them to find shelter, then leave them supplies at a halfway point. That's helping out but not risking everyone's health.
Where’s the option for “Give them some food and supplies, but don’t let them share living quarters”? I *really* don’t want to get sick. And I don’t know if it’s something serious or just a cold; if it’s contagious, etc.
First, was this pandemic in any way connected with lung or respiratory disease?
I`d share supplies, but wouldn't risk to contaminate a clean zone with a potential biohazard.
Admitting them has a far greater chance of killing you than of saving them. Give them some supplies maybe and send them on their way.
Ok todays moral dilemma, Donald Trump is drowning in a pool. A. Do you let him drown? B. Do you take your foot off his head? It's a joke, don't be grumpy.
I replied with the majority on all but one question. Two were unanswerable (plague and crying baby) and one had two options but I chose a third (turn down friend's dad, but leave it at that). But on all others I was with the majority. Lots of good people out there! Note that on the one question where I differed (the shoplifter), another commenter had a much better alternative, which was to pay for the formula. Wish I'd thought of that, good for them.
Each question reveals the aggregate answer totals once you have submitted your answer.
Load More Replies...This reminds me of the time I had an asthma attack in the pharmacy. I was there to collect my asthma medication. The staff were wonderful and sorted me out really quickly. On the taxi ride home I realised I hadn't paid the prescription charge. The taxi driver said not to worry about it - their fault. I looked at him and said how thankful I was for the NHS. Not to pay my fair share felt so wrong. He repeated it was their fault not mine, and I looked at him in disbelief, "What do you think I am? A Tory?!" His reply was 'Good point, do you want me to turn around?" I said I'd phone them when I got home and explain the situation. My husband stopped by first thing the following morning and paid. The NHS is brilliant, and I'm not going to steal from it.
For most of these questions I would do neither--morality is almost never a binary choice. I did answer some questions because I wanted to see the poll results--so weird that most people would return a wallet intact but for other questions morality is surprisingly low.
Well where’s the answer at end telling us what the replies told em lol 🤷♀️
