I was actually in this situation. I told my sister that I saw her husband kissing a girl in his work place. She called me a liar and didn't speak to me for a year. She called me to come and get her and her son. She was pregnant and he had run off to California with the same girl I saw him with. So if this person were to tell his sister, he needs to be prepared to take some punishment.

If I knew that my sister's husband was cheating on her, I would keep my mouth shut and mind my own business. It is not my place to tell my sister. She will find out about his infidelity sooner or later. Most of the time, the truth will always come out. If I told my sister that her husband is cheating on her, then she will resent me for it and probably won't talk to me afterwards. Unless, I want to lose my relationship with my sister, I will look the other way.
And the same goes if you found out your friend's husband was cheating on her, then mind your own business.

It depends on your sister, hypothetically speaking of course. Is she the type to go over the edge? Is she rational? What are the possible outcomes? Is she going to get angry when everything goes down at you for being the one to tell her? I have been the cheated on spouse, and the easiest thing to do is blame virtually everyone involved, including the person who brought the betrayal to light. She has a right to know, and you definitely should talk to her spouse, let him know that you know......And if he doesn't tell her you might...

You would be wrong not to. Cheating is such a horrible thing, it tears ones life apart...I hate cheaters. Better now than to let her end up with a disease. Also, if she caught him in the act, what would she do? Could you be visiting her at a prison for, " crime of passion". I know if I caught my husband, I'd throw down. So, do her a favor that you should have already did, tell her.

Hmm. Although I have a brother and not a sister, I'll assume the same logic applies. I'd neither tell nor not tell my brother; I'd hint it to him. I wouldn't want to distance him from me, but I also wouldn't want to be accused of anything if he later found out I had known. So I'd hint it and let him deal with it as he saw fit.

I would have to tell. Just knowing it was true would make me feel guilty. I couldn't keep a secret like that from anyone. ESPECIALLY MY OWN SISTER!!!! I can understand people not wanting to tell, fear of breaking her heart. Bottom line is, you can't let people get away with abusing love and trust, which go hand in hand.

Tell her, but make sure you have some proof of it, that way she doesnt get hurt worse by asking the slimeball husband about it and him lying, and then her calling you a liar.

How fragile is your sister? if she has a history of being suicidal, talk to the husband, your parents, anyone but her. but, if she can take it, you need to tell her right away!

it really depends on how long they have been married. If it's a long time you might want to confront the guy and tell him that you know, and that if it doesn't stop you'll tell her. And if he doesnt care, tell her and help her move.
