reader, like I see it +, writes (17 August 2014):
I agree with you, she's unwise to stay with a cheater in the first place and playing games with him makes very little sense.
That said, as her friend all you can do is point this out to her, which you have already done. In the end it's her life and her choices, as an adult woman, are her own - even if they're completely irrational. Hard though it may be, this is a lesson she apparently needs to learn for herself.
The best way you can support her is to be there for her as a friend when this plan of hers backfires (which it almost inevitably will) and scares off the cheating boyfriend, to whom she's likely to appear desperate if not crazy for posing as someone else.
Good luck and best wishes.
