I saw an episode of MASH where Cornel (sp?) Potter found out his daughters hubby had slept with another woman during his trip to Korea. He was hopping mad about it but in the end he decided to not tell his daughter. He told his son in law there is no point in destroying 3 lives over one slip up. He also let him know what he would do if it happened again.

IDK, food for thought..

Thanks much, I'll remember that when I get promoted to Colonel!

It's not all about a woman thinking with emotion. It's plain and simple God made men and women different. You can't expect a woman to think like a man. You can't expect a man to think like a woman!! Also, each of us deserves to decide for ourselves how we want to handle a situation like this one. No one can or should tell you how to handle it. We all cross that bridge when we come to it. If you wouldn't tell your best friend (or someone close to you) then that's your choice. Others may feel differently. You gotta let the chips fall where they may in cases like this.

I'll get right to the question ...Does a newly wed pregnant woman want to know of her husbands infidelity?

Here's the issue...I had been dating a man for nearly a year...I just learned he got married several months ago and his wife is pregnant. He did not tell me nor did he end our relationship. I found out and ended it immediately. I never have been nor ever want to be involved with a married man.

With the pain and suffering I am going through and the feelings of betrayal from this man, I can not imagine how a married pregnant woman would take the news of her new husband, who, while the entire time they were engaged and thru the first 6 months of their marriage had been cheating on her. Utterly devastating I can imagine.

So I'm in quite a quandary, do I let it go and let his karma take its course, or do I tell the wife of her husbands disgusting affair?

I appreciate men and women's advice, I’ve been lamenting over this for 2 weeks now…
Oh man this is a tough one. If you decide to tell her, make sure it is for the right reasons. Don't do it to get back at him. Don't think I am hurt so let me hurt someone else. I do think you can "force" his hand and make him tell her. It does need to get addressed in their relationship. The new wife probably has no desire to hear from you. She does deserve to know where she stands. Tread carefully matters of the heart have lasting effects.

Best of luck.

i won't quote the OP's opening post since it was quoted just above.. but the image i'm getting from it is not one of genuinely caring for the woman's wellbeing (as you stated earlier that you DON'T care) but more of a vengeful endeavor.. absolutely a bad way to go about things. you're just looking for trouble if you do it like that, and if that's the only reason you have, you're better off minding your own business and moving on with your life (and next time, try to find one that doesn't cheat, we do exist )

Nah it could be someone going through the same thing and resurrected it. Then again she could still be holding a grudge and came back under a different name cause she lost her password? IDK.
