What will you do if you know that your best friend is unfaithful to his spouse?

Answer 1

One of my best friends in college did this to his GF at the time. She was also a good friend as well. I basically called him on it, and told him he told her by (whatever the date was) or I told her. We were good enough friends that he knew I would do it.

We are still friends. Sometimes being a good friend is letting someone know when they are really f*cking something up.

Answer 2

My best-friend is consistently unfaithful to her spouse. She knows I am against it. She knows I think she should just get divorced. When we go places together and she picks up a guy, I am vocal about my disapproval and I usually try to talk her out of things. Sometimes she leaves with the guy. But I can honestly tell you that in the last six months, I have stopped going out to places with her where she picks up these guys.

I will NEVER tell her husband. I just tell her every chance I get that I don't approve. I don't lie for her, I don't cover for her, I don't assist or condone things in anyway. But I will not rat her out.

Answer 3

I wouldn't do anything.....it's really none of my business, and if I told the other spouse, then I'd be caught right in the middle of their troubles. Unfaithfulness has a way of being found out about anyway.......just watch and see.

Answer 4

You mind your own business because it's none of yours; People have a tendency to think it's there place to be the good Samaritan by giving there opinion when someone is cheating, no it's not your place and again it's not your concern. Why do you find it so harsh? I've heard of worse things like murder or physical abuse. I think you need to butt out and change your friends if you don't like what there doing. It's there decision and not yours. The end.

Answer 5

don't get involved. try to be no part of what your friend has going on "on the side". Express your disapproval of what he is doing. And leave it at that.

If you do anything more, you run the risk of becoming the bad guy, in everyones eyes. SUCKS that it works like that, BUT usually it does.

GOOD LUCK to YOU and YOUR FRIENDS SPOUSE. and shame on him as well.

Answer 6

He is YOUR best friend. Keep your mouth shut let him dig his own grave. It isnt your place to betray him and go to her unless you want to lose him as a friend and have her lean on you in which case you would be worse than he is and it would be a premeditated betrayal. If you dont have a reason to rat him out and lose him as a friend, just get it off your chest that you think its messed up, but it is his life and to try to keep his affair separate from your friendship. She WILL find out sooner or later...we always do.

Answer 7

Tell her, isn't that what you would want done? I know that is your best friend but you need to be honest. Good luck and god bless sounds like you are in a mess that i wouldn't want to be in

Answer 8

Mind my own bussiness, it would not be a good idea to get in the middle of it. But you should talk to you best friend, let them know that you will not tell on him, but you will not lie if asked and it is best that they fess up.

Answer 9

First of all i would talk to my friend and beg him to stop and to tell his spouse what he has been doing to her and to the marriage. If he did not tell her then you should. She has a right to know but be fair about it and try to give your friend an chance to do the right thing first.

Answer 10

I would stay out of it. My last best friend did the same thing & she kept coming to me for advice & comfort. As much as i told her to stop cheating, she kept doing it anyway. Then her husband started calling me, wanting to talk about how depressed he was. She got mad at me just for talking to him since she wanted me to be on "her side". We ended up arguing that lead us to end our friendship, now that i think of it, it was an 8 year friendship lost for NOTHING.

My point is that your best friend will NOT listen to you or take your advice no matter what you say, plus you will end up getting involved anyway. So, the best thing to do is STAY OUT OF IT. let your best friend learn from the mistake & let GOD do the rest.

GOOD LUCK!
