The best bet would be not telling because telling your best friend is only going to upset her and make her lose a bf. If you tell then you may lose a best friend.

On the Other hand you could tell and hope for the best. You can say something to the effect of "I dont wanna hurt you but I think your bf has cheated on you and I only wanna tell you so that hopefully you won't be surprised and can go about it how you want." Your best bet is weighing the pros and cons of telling and not telling.

There are two sides to this.

You could not tell, because butting into someone elses personal problems with their boyfriend and whatnot is none of your business and you made a promise to your friend. This really depends on how close you are to the friend and if her trust and feelings is more important than your best friends. Think about it, if you do not tell her and she finds out you knew the whole time, do you think she will take that as lightly as she would if you tell her?

Or

You can tell your best friend, because you think it would be the right thing to do telling her. She would either apperitiate your attempt to spare her feelings, or she would be hurt. But you would feel like you did the right thing. The down side is that your other friend would be upset with breaking your promise to her, but promises like that should not be asked, made, or kept. If she was not willing to suffer the consequences of her actions, she should not have done something so wrong.

My opinion out of the two is to tell your friend what went down. I personally think that it would make her feel better if the news came from a close friend, because obviously it seems her boyfriend is not going to tell. You need to make sure it is true though, and have all the details before you tell her. She will be upset, and you need to be there for her 100%. I believe that not telling her is just allowing it to happen again.

I agree with the person below. If you know about your best friends boyfriend doing some stuff and she is your best friend, you should tell her. You don't want her finding out on her own. So you should tell her. I hope everything works out.

well if your friend knew that the boy she did all that suff with was taken. i think you should tell your bestfriend because it's better telling her yourself than her finding out about it , just put yourself in your bestfriends shoes and see how you would feel and you will find your answer.
