lying friend

I would be really angry as friends are people to rely on. She can't be trusted and I wouldn't forgive her, I would break up the friendship and avoid her company. If your partner was cheating on you, she was also. You lost two close people but you gained a lot of knowledge...

I would be mad, but I will eventually forgive her down the road. I will wonder why she would withhold such information as this. I know for sure that I would have to question our friendship from now on.

This is such a tough call to make. I had a friend who knew that her friend's husband had been unfaithful to her. My friend did a lot of soul searching - because she knew that her friend had no family around her, and that it would possibly mean her family breaking up and moving country. She asked me what she should do, I just said, if it were me knowing that your husband had done something like that, would you want to know - she answered yes and went to tell her friend. She began telling her friend what she had seen, but the friend said, that she didn't want to know and why was she trying to break up her marriage! Some people you just can't help. I have also had a similar thing with a friend of mine, but instead of telling the friend, I just let it be known to the husband that I would tell his wife if he didn't. Well he did tell his wife, and he also told her that what had happened was directly the fault of me and my husband! We have not spoken since. It is a strange world we live in, no?

It is a difficult question that you ask. I was in this situation with a friend of mine. And yes I knew her spouse was cheating on her but the thing of it was practically everyone knew it and I didn't say anything to her because I knew she either #1 She was aware of the situation and was trying to work it out among the two of them or #2 She was in complete denial. The latter ended up being true and she told me one time that if I had told her that it would have probably destroyed our friendship because she was refusing to see it and would hav been hurt even mor for me to reinforce it to her. There are cetain things even as a friend that are off limits and friends personal lives are one them. Hope everything works out for you!
