@Katie Koekblik:  All I would say is if I found out the person claiming to be my best friend knew this about my DH and didn’t tell me, I would be furious.

NO way do you give him time.  He’s not showing up at work, no money coming into the house because hes spending it all on the sloppy girl that “gets” him.  If you give him time, he’ll empty out their accounts and your friend will be out of luck.

Think about if this was you….. your BFF knows .. .KNOWS your husband is having an affair and your BFF doesn’t tell you??? 

You have to tell her. You have no choice, they have children this isnt a joke or a boyfriend, the lives of those kids are going to get worse.  

When my Mom passed away my behavior was similar, too much drinking, out too much too late, but I didn’t have a family.  I know this is out of character and you did offer to help him but you need to tell your BFF everything or be prepared to loose her.

I hope he’s honest with her and they can get back on track.  She really does need to know if for nothing else all the STD tests she needs, because I’m sure in his drunken stupor he and the other chick got tests and used protection.  It isn’t going to be easy but she’s lucky she has you!

I think the PP’s points about money are something to consider seriously. I hadn’t thought about that, but if he’s being a real asshole, he might actually empty the bank accounts. That might make me tell my friend earlier than later.

When I was in  my early 20’s a good friend of mine was in a relationship. I worked with her boyfriend, they had been together for 6+ years at the time. I had a boyfriend whose sister also worked with us and was known to sleep around. Well, my boyfriend and his sister still lived at home so I was there all the time. My friends boyfriend would go over to the house with my bf’s sister until 2 am whenever I wasn’t there. My boyfriend told me flat out that he saw what they were doing and he was most definitely cheating on my friend with his sister. I told my friend, he told her he hadn’t done it and she hasn’t spoken to me since. They are now married with 2 kids.

I do not regret telling her. I know for a fact he was and she deserved to know, what she chose to do with it (from what I heard she cheated on him so they could be “even”) was her own business. I know that I would be more hurt finding out later that my best friend knew and didn’t tell me.

@Katie Koekblik:  tell her! He told you directly. I would be incredibly hurt if I were her if you kept this from me.

I wouldn’t tell her,  reason being that he is going to deny it.    Then  you are going to look like a fool for trying to inform her.   She will find out eventually and you need to be there as her world is falling apart.

@Katie Koekblik:  I would absoluey 100% disclose all to her and her family, while she’s at their home and has all the support she can get. But thats ME, based on having my best friend in my life for 33 years. There’s NO WAY I could keep this from her.
