Just found out my friend's girlfriend had sex with my other buddy. Although they both really don't know eachother (two separate groups of friends). Would you guys tell your friend if his girl cheated on him or would you just keep it from him?

Print out an anonymous message in wordpad that just says something like 'she cheated on you with so-and-so last week.' Then tear that part off so it's just a small strip of paper, and leave it in his mailbox or somewhere he'll find it. Then he won't 'kill the messenger' so to speak, and he will know the truth but not know who divulged it. If they ever work through the cheating and get back together, they won't both hate you, because they don't know it's you.

If it was a really close friend, then I would tell him what I had heard. I would not tell him "she cheated" unless I saw it with my own eyes. Otherwise, I would just relay the information (and the source).

If it was not a really good friend, then I probably would just MYOB and say nothing.

It's always a hard position to be in. I found out one of my BF cheated on her husband; and I am friends with both of them. This situation, I am keeping my mouth shut.

I have to say, I would want to know if I were the one being cheated on. So my advice is to tell him...

You should just walk up and tell her you heard all about it. Just to see the look on her face. And then ask her if she is going to be decent enough to tell the bf. Just to see the look on her face. Or ask her to sleep with you just to keep you quiet. Just to see the look on her face. Or you can demand money to keep quiet. Just to see the look on her face. Personally I'd go with the money to keep quiet.
How close is this guy to you? If I had a cheating spouse/gf...I believe I would be grateful if somebody told me so I could get rid of her. I sure as heck wouldn't want sloppy seconds. And what if this 3rd party has STD's? You think your buddy wants any of that crap? Tell him now, before he catches something he can't ever get rid of...or worse...get's her pregnant! She cheated once...she'll do it again. My guess is she cheated on somebody else, with your buddy before she ever hooked up with him.

Having been married to a man that had an affair, I would want to know.

Unless they're engaged or married, I wouldn't get involved.
