Well he’s doing that very same thing all over again with you, now isn’t he? I guess he didn’t learn anything the last time. Just hope she doesn’t find out, this could just go on forever.

I completely agree.

OP, I'd stay out of it and let them handle their own business. After all, they're the only ones that know the whole story. And I doubt either side is "innocent" of wrong-doing here.

They'll either figure it out or they won't, but that's for them to decide. Nothing good comes out of involving yourself in someone else's relationship issues.

Who says you should get over it?
If someone has a history to deceiving people they should not be trusted. Period.

It really doesn’t matter how right or wrong someone is in thinking someone else did something against them or slighted them. if they do not feel they can trust, they shouldn’t. They should grow up and stop involving themselves with whoever they feel is continuing to slight them.

As far as where “should” the line be drawn?
When everything one does begins or ends with their mistakes as reasoning for their actions outside of them.

He needs to put his big boy pants on, grow a pair, and tell her to get over it and not to bring it up again. Its in the past, its not even anything, to be honest. He's just rolling over and taking a beating...over what? As long as he keeps this up, she will never respect him, and will keep hounding him.

Unfortunately for your buddy, OP, the friend he chose to share his troubles with was female. That's what blew his GF's trust really. If he had griped to a male, she might have been annoyed, but unfortunately the first step in an emotional affair is frequently sharing your relationship difficulties with an opposite gender friend, even a married one. From there it often progresses to the friends comforting each other about their relationship issues, and eventually they develop feelings for their confidante. I've been on the bad end of this one before. My ex-hubby listened to another woman's sob stories about her hubby and sure enough they ended up "in love" for about 3 weeks. Just long enough to break up our marriage.

She was definitely wrong to go through his phone, but he was also wrong for sharing his private relationship issues with anyone, especially another woman. I know guys often don't talk about this stuff with each other, but going to another woman (other than a sister or mom) was a big no-no as far as wives and GFs are concerned.

This couple is in need of counseling to teach them both boundaries, or to just move on if they can't leave it in the past.
