Hi, so my best friend is going out with this kid, and he's really nice to her. I recently made a new friend, and she's really awesome!
However, she likes my best friends boyfriend, and he likes her back. So, I've decided to stay out of it. But, even though I'm friends with the boyfriend too, i just found out that HE'S CHEATING ON MY BEST FRIEND with my other friend. I PROMISED her i would not tell a SOUL and i always keep my promises. But, the boyfriend found out, and he called me really upset saying how bad he felt & how he was an asshole. SHOULD I TELL ME FRIEND HE'S CHEATING, OR STAY OUT OF IT, like i promised. But, if she finds out, then she'll be really mad that she couldn't trust me to tell her that. =/.

Hitoast answered Tuesday October 28 2008, 5:25 pm: Hm, well I would talk to your new friend. Tell her it's not right and he's also cheating on her technically. Try to talk to her and convince her how hard it is to not look out for your other friend and that she shouldn't be putting you in a position like this. I don't think you should just plain out tell your best friend about it, because many things could happen. One, she could get mad at you because she's in denial and thinks you're lying. Whether or not you prove her wrong, that will always be a scar in you guy's friendship. Two, you could lose your new friend. Three, you could cause the boyfriend to dump your best friend because most boys don't like drama. However, if your attempts to let your new friend and the boyfriend know that this is wrong fail, then you might have to eventually tell your best friend. If she doesn't believe you, just say "ok, you can believe whatever you want." that way, she won't think you're too persistant and you technically told her, so if she finds out he is, she can't get mad at you for not telling her. Well, goodluck! Hope I helped! :) [ Hitoast's advice column | Ask Hitoast A Question ]

think about how your friend will feel if she finds out that you knew and didnt tell her and if she gets mad at you for telling her then remind her of that.
this guy might also be a way for you to tell her. if he really feels this bad about it then he needs to tell her and let her decide what to do!
all i know is that ive lost my best friends to drama and i would def tell them about it if i still had them!
