It's tough to accept, I know, I've been in this situation.
In my experience, the best course of action is to not get involved -- this means no hint dropping either! They are adults and capable of handling their own issues, this is their problem, not yours. Getting involved will complicate things for all of you ... especially you.
This is about *their* relationship, not yours, and they have to solve this for themselves. In this case, I've found it's best to look at it as a relationship issue between two adults, as opposed to the relationship between your parents...
I'm not suggesting that your mother doesn't have a right to know that her husband is unfaithful, I'm just pointing out the fact that it's their struggle, not yours, despite the information you hold.

It is pretty common for mom's and dad's to sleep with people other than their partners, and that is okay.
What is not okay is if they are lying about it, or cheating behind their partners back. If two people cannot trust one another, then the relationships will not survive.
I suggest just being honest with him. Most parents will not talk about sex, or stuff like sleeping with other people unless their chilf asks first. Ask him if your Mom knows that he is sleeping with other people, and if it is okay with her. Ask him if lying is okay, or not.

I think you should maybe talk to him about it and if that doesn't work or if might cause problems in your relationship, tell your mom what you found, but you probably need proof, unless she has suspected anything. Tell your mom tho, she deserves to know the truth.

I would subtly tell my mother about his shenanigans, and hope that she did something about it. Make sure that you have proof about those allegations, as for your mother might not feel the same way as you do. Your feelings for him may be different than hers. I will say that she probably has a notion of his doings, and is probably unsure of what to do herself. Then again, she may be totally oblivious to the affairs, and that is why you should tell her.

Stay out of it! Don't "tell" anyone, but maybe leave some evidence laying around that your mom can find. Good luck.

that is tuff... first of all think of all the actions that will happen if you tell your mom, what if you dont? I would probly try to get him busted without actually telling my mom but that is me and my family it may be better to stay out of it.. maybe your mom already knows.
