My friend is going through a divorce that his wife initiated. His wife filed for divorce two years ago and moved out of the house immediately after filing. However, the divorce is not final due to some clerical error made in one of the forms. The (soon to be ex) wife is dragging her feet in correcting the paperwork.
My friend is interpreting that as a glimmer of hope that maybe she still has feelings for him. What he doesn't know is that she already has a new boyfriend.
Should I tell him that she moved on in order to help him move on? I'm trying to stay out of this since this is none of my business, but my friend keeps on talking about her and keeps on asking for my advice in trying to "win" her back. I want to tell him about the boyfriend so he can cut his losses and start a new chapter in life, but he is very depressed and he also happens to own an arsenal of guns. I am fearful of a worst case scenario where he finds out about the boyfriend and decides turn the gun on himself or someone else.
... my friend keeps on talking about her and keeps on asking for my advice in trying to "win" her back.
If he does this ^^^ then you should tell him what you know. It would be disingenuous to withhold info like this when he asks you for advice to the contrary.
In these situations, just ask yourself what you would want him to do if the roles were reversed.
Don't bring it up yourself but if he keeps going on about how he still has hope then maybe let him know.
