I know my best friend's wife is cheating...what do I do?


Question Posted Saturday October 17 2009, 12:00 pm

Months ago my best friend confided in me that his marriage was not going as planned. I felt bad for this because he's really a good guy. I decided to keep my eyes opened when it came to their relationship to try and figure out what the fuss was all about because he was very confused. I know that since then he has talked about his wife coming home really upset after work, staying out much later than expected, not having sex with him for weeks, and other clues to her possibly cheating.

A week ago I was out and actually saw his wife. My girlfriend was actually the one that pointed her out to me as we were dining. His wife was all over another man, kissing on him and everything. I didn't recognize the man at all.

I actually went outside and grabbed a camera that we keep in the car for road trip moments and took a few photos of them kissing and leaving together hand in hand. The photos are surprisingly clear and I am still shocked that we bumped into this scene.

Should I tell my best friend?

Yes, you should. Normally I say don't get involved, but you've got photographic evidence. Spend 10 bucks on a flash drive, make copies onto it, and bring it to him.

It sucks to be the bearer of bad news, but he's better off knowing and divorcing the bitch.

On second thought, bring him over for dinner or something and tell him at your place. Somewhere you can keep him corralled if necessary.

Speaking as a fellow man, I'd rather know. The only other option in the same vein(which I don't advise) is to tell his wife you know, and that she can tell him or you can tell him. Do not bring up the photos if you do this, save them for your friend.

It's quite possible that neither of them would thank you for interfering and you could end up being blamed for maybe ending a marriage, however unfair that may sound.

If, however, you feel you do need to say something, talk to the wife about it. Tell her what you saw and ask her to talk about it. There is always a chance it wasn't what it appeared to be. Or there could be severe problems at home of which you are totally unaware. Even if she is having an affair, it is up to her and her alone to tell her husband. You can only be supportive and wait.
