If you knew a person was cheating on their SO (doesn't matter the relationship title) would you tell the SO?

Question

You aren't close with the SO, have them on FB, known them a year, have been over to their house a three times.

Answer

If someone knew my man was cheating on me, I'd want to hear it. Same with any of my friends. No way in hell am I keeping that a secret and risking a good friendship.

Answer

Absolutely not your business or your place to tell. People forgive their partners more often than we hear about and you also have no idea what the circumstances of the cheating are. Is it arranged and consensual? Is it a "do it, but I don't want to know anything about it" situation? Is it an affair that may save a sexless marriage? You never, no matter how close you think you might be, know the inner workings and intimacies of someone else's relationship enough to insert yourself.

Answer

Told a really good friends of mine's husband. He came to me with suspicions and asked. He was a really decent guy treating her right and I knew he didn't deserve it. Wrong is wrong. She was mad for a bit but they worked it out and we're still friends today.

Answer

I've actually had to do this. One of my friends in high school was dating this football player who was kinda shady and my best friend and I were coming back from the bathroom and we saw him kiss his ex girlfriend in front of one of his football buddies. We told her and she confronted him and he admitted. She let him have it too. Lol.

Answer

No, you don't know the dynamics of the relationship. They may have a discrete open marriage or a don't-ask-don't-tell-don't-embarrass-me deal going on. It's not your place to tell.

Answer

I would say you don't know there dynamic so cheating may be consensual... Its not your place.

Answer

Haha...I've had experience with this with one of my guy friends. Knew he was cheating on his gf. Told him that if he didn't tell her himself, that I would. And I had never even met the girl before...only knew her by name. In the end I didn't have to say a word.

Answer

I would say not trying to break ur home u guys can work it out if u love each other but i seen he/she with some one else again it's not my place but u guys need to sit down and talk and leave it there. Thats what I would've done did it to plenty of my friends cause wrong is wrong and two wrong don't make a right, so one of them may have to go left into they separate ways hope that help.

Answer

I'd probably tell my friend to come clean to their SO because I would not keep their secret, but it's also their responsibility to work out their own relationship. I guess it just depends on how close we were.

Answer

They better tell or I will.
