Bear with me here

My friend is married with one kid
They as a couple were friends with another couple with two kids who are also neighbours.

My friends husband is best friend with male neighbour but at same time is having an affair with his wife.

My mate knows all about this and i currently getting a divorce but since finding out has never told her male neighbour that his best mate is banging his wife!

Has been going on about a year.

The ex-husband is a contiuous habitual liar and recently lost his job and goes out of his way to avoid seeing his daughter yet all the while hanging out with his mistress and her husband at their house over the way from my friend.

My friend hasnt got the balls to tell the husband, should i?

Both you and your friend should shut up. You can only lose by saying anything. People really do shoot the messenger.

That and it's quite possible she's getting a pummelling from both ends, and likes it, eh?

you are of course absolutly right but i know my friend really does want to tell but finds it hard as she has left it sooooo long.

It would be a case of doing it for her. But seeing as ive known about it for a year too and havent done anything speeks volumes i guess

Do it.

If said party finds out you knew all along but didn't tell you'll look like a git. In fact, you've been sucked in already, either way, you are going to look like a git!

My friend already has a video of the "other women" when she invited her round to explain why she was having an affair with her husband!!!

very amusing it is too, if you like seeing a 23 year old bimbo crying and begging for the cat not to be let out of the bag.

Typical for Crawley, it's a swirling maelstrom of wife-swapping and lurid personal conduct.

You've been sucked in to this situation, I'd keep my head below the parapet if I were you. You don't want to end up embroiled in a "Headless Torso Found on Tilgate Golf Course by Dog Walker" headline on the front page of the West Sussex Trombone. They do that round here, chop people up.

Oh please tell him, just think of him sitting there thinking his wife loves him, poor sod.

I read that twice, and still can't work out who's banging who!

Anyways, I'd stay well out. You won't get thanked either way I guess, but good luck!

Unbelievable that your mate found out her husband was cheating on her with her neighbour and DIDN'T confront the neighbour about it. Your friend seems to have taken this rather lightly. It's not like the 'other woman' can claim she didn't know the bloke was married - she even knew who to!
EXACTLY

I know of no-one else that would stand for it or behave that way.
I think my friend was so in shock as she had suspisions for ages and her husband told her it was all in her head etc then when he had left the family home and wait for it....moved in with his best mate(and his wife cum mistress!!) My mate hacked into his work emails remotly and got lucky when she came across an email conversation where he admitted to a college about the affir and the fact that the mistress had fallen preggers and had a miscarragie. Its Jermey Kyle stuff all day.

My friend however i can assure you is a first class lady all the way.

I think you need to tell him, but to do it annonymously. Do it in a way that he'll never identify who told him, but that she wont be able to deny it. Surely everyone would want to know if their wife was cheating on them. The longer it's left the worse it'll be when he does find out.

In my experience there are several sides to any relationship story so being judgemental having only heard one side is a bit futile.
