Is it my business if my brother's wife is cheating on him?

Answer 1

He is your brother, of course its your business!

Answer 2

In a way yes, in a way no. I think you need to be very careful here. Your brother may have an idea that this is happening already and is denying it. In those instances people often have a kill the messenger attitude and you could end up damaging your relationship with your brother. Or worse yet, it if comes out and they decide to stay together then you are always the one who outed your sister in law so there will always be animosity there. On the other hand I think your bro deserves to know. If you feel like he should know, then I would help him "discover it" himself. Take him with you next door to the motel or drive by and spot the wife's vehicle or something that brings it into the open by "accident". That way you are not forcing him to confront the issue but you are doing your sisterly love thing by letting him find out and possibly saving him some pain.
However, he may not react the way you would. So don't expect a certain reaction. And don't judge, just give your advise if solicited, but be very careful what you say, bad apples tend to stay around awhile.

Answer 3

If you want to make it your business than it is otherwise no! she is married to your brother not to you... and even though she is in your family she still is your brothers wife!
But your brother is your business and anything wrong happening to him or in his life is your family's concern!
So that way you better let your brother know what is going on with his wife because what she is doing is wrong behind your brothers back!
So let your brother know and let the family know what is going on!And than let him make his decision!
I hope you and your brother are close enough that he will trust you on this, because this is not something small but a big accusation... and if she is cheating than she does not deserve your brother!

Answer 4

Yes, he is your brother. I would want my brother to tell me if my husband is cheating. Wouldn't you want your brother to tell you? But make sure that you are sure and you have evidence. Also be prepared that they may make up, instead of break up and the consequence maybe that you lose your relationship with your brother if his wife is bitter and try to pull him away. If the both of you are really close than that might not be a problem, but I would say yes always look out for your loved ones.

Answer 5

No, MYOB...and when the stuff hits the fan, act as if you knew NOTHING about it. There is a very real possibility he already knows and would be very embarrassed if anyone in the family found out. Everyone has their own dynamics in a relationship, and you have no idea what their's is. I would be VERY tempted to ask HER what is going on, tell her you know the score, and if she doesn't fess up to the crime, you will help her out ... just the threat might end the mess. But..in the long run, do NOT tell him. There is also a distinct possiblity that you do not know what you are talking about. Just because you "hear" things does not make them true. IF you have 8X10 black and white glossies, that is a different story.

Answer 6

If I were the brother I would want to know. However, it is not your business. Here is for you consideration: the brother may already know his wife cheats on him but pretend nothing happened just to keep the marriage.

Answer 7

I disagree with the general consensus that says it is your business.
You are not married to her, or your brother, and not really privileged with personal information that can go on between two people.
Rather than running to your brother, and being the bearer of "bad news", have a conversation with your sister-in-law, in private, and let her know what it is you believe. Encourage her to do the right thing for herself and your brother.
There may be certain things that you do not know, and are truly not your business. Be supportive of her and your brother but keep your mouth shut, when it comes to "telling" on her....

Look before you leap is a good idea.

Answer 8

Not your business....but.....I would let my brother know if I knew for a fact....that my sister-in law was cheating. I would make sure I had factual evidence....photos, taped conversations, etc. before I presented the news to my brother though!!!

Nothing worse than opening that BARN door and the Cow is still in the Barn....

Answer 9

oh boy. That is a tough call. It depends on how much you trust your brother and how close you too are. If he already hates you then telling him would make it worse.
Maybe you should confront his wife and tell her that you know and that she better stop. And if she does't then tell her that either she tells him or you will.

Another option would be to have a conversation with your brother. Tell him that you know someone who is cheating on someone you care about, ask him what he thinks you should do. If he says. tell him. then you tell him. If he says myob then do that and go to the wife and tell her you know and she needs to stop or tell your bro.
Good luck

Answer 10

Yes, dear it is your business...this is your brother, your blood. If you know for a fact that she is (and you really should have facts) then by all means, he needs to know this. I knew my brother's wife was cheating on him and never told him (I saw her picking up guys in a bar and taking them out to the parking lot)....when he did find out he asked me why I never told him. Put yourself in his shoes, wouldn't you want him to tell you if you were in the same situation? Love your brother enough to tell him....A broken heart is easier to fix than him contracting a disease from her, ya know? Good luck to you!

Answer 11

No. I would not get in the middle of that. I guess the best thing to do is to tell the wife that you know she is cheating on him. Let her deal with what comes next.
