Okay so my best friend (of 10 years) was going out with 2 guys (wesley and rafi) and rafi had a feeling my friend liked someone else..so i told rafi that my friend was cheating on him with wesley...am i wrong for doing that? i dont think i am because it's not like she was going to marry wesley or rafi so i dont know why she is getting all worked up over it...but what do yall think? did i do the wrong thing?
xoMarisox answered Monday June 12 2006, 5:05 pm: I don't think you did anything wrong. Expeccially if you are freinds with both of the guys. If you are freinds with the guys then you were just looking out for them and there is nothing wrong with that. Your freind cheated.. and thats the wrong thing to do..

If your friend had no intention at all of telling these guys she was seeing them both at the same time then yes, in a sense you did do the right thing because hey had a right to know.
However, it wasn't really your place to tell him and your friend will probably see it in a very negative light. To her, it will seem more as though you have put your nose into her business and messed up something she was very happy with. While most impartial persons could understand what you did, she most certainly will not be able to see that.
Really, it's impossible to say whether or not what you did was wrong because it's not a black and white situation. What you did was to prevent a situation which could hurt a lot of people from getting worse but at the same time, betrayed your best friend's trust.
Personally, I think that you did the wrong thing for the right reasons and under those circumstances, I support your decision. However, if you were to find yourself in this situation in the future, I would recommend that rather than do something about it directly, you speak to your friend and try to persuade her to come clean by herself.

BriZeeme2 answered Monday June 12 2006, 3:52 pm: i dont think thats wrong i just think you could have handled that in a better way like tellyour friend or ten years that thats not right of what she was doing and have her pick which guy she wanted the most because she might have liked rafi more then the other guy so yea but i have one question is she mad at you for this? because if so then you should have stayed out of it but if not i still think you should have talked to her about it

mmmmmmm answered Monday June 12 2006, 3:12 pm: that probably wasn't the best idea. i would appolagize to your friend if i were you. say something like 'i really didn't want him to get hurt because he kind of thought thought that you liked someone else... i'm really sorry. i shouldn't have done that.'
