Would you inform a friend if their partner is/was adulterous?

Depends who it is, if its a close friend/family member, I will snitch in a second

If its someone that i kinda know but dont care too much about (co worker/Person from gym/ fellow church person) , Nah

I think I'd find a way to send an anonymous tip.
Yeah, but you don't know how that fscks with the receiver's mind.

Someone called me and sent me a bunch of SMS's to tell me my wife was cheating. He then destroyed the SIM card. I spent weeks in mental turmoil not knowing who the person was. I spent nights awake trying to analyse the style of writing all the while arguing with my wife about who she's having an affair with.

My wife kept telling me it's someone who's trying to hurt her and after many months, we finally found out it was a couple that my wife got an interdict against after a verbal altercation. This was due to hints from a mutual friend and finally I managed to connect the dots

What made tracking who it was difficult was both the husband and the wife sent me SMS's. The husband couldn't spell for schit. They used the same number and I didn't realise it was two people contacting me at the time.. They also used a pre-RICA'd SIM registered to a Sipho. I don't even know anybody by that name.

I also don't read SMS's so it was over a period of like a week since they sent the first SMS. I immediately called back and that was the day they destroyed the SIM.

Legally I wish there was something I could do to them, but I have absolutely no proof. Or I'll just put out a hit for the nights where my wife cried me awake, begging me to believe her and for the depressed state she sunk to during that period. I'm getting pissed off all over again.

I have been through this.
A girl I was friends with had been dating a guy for many years and they were engaged. I was staying in a tiny flat at the time that bordered a parking lot which was out of sight from the street.
Her fiance used to arrive late at night and go visit his side chick, he used to park right outside and his car was a sponsored one with his name written on the side.
This ****** would then leave in the early hours of the morning and his noisy ass car would wake me up.
So I called her and told her to tell him to stop parking outside my place and waking me up at 1am.

She told me it wasnt possible that it was him because he had left her place and gone home earlier in the evening etc. I explained that it wasnt possible to mistake as his name was on the side of the car.
There werent camera phones in those days so I wasnt going to mission to get pics if she didnt want to believe it. She asked him and he denied everything obviously.

They got married and had 2 kids, then she caught him cheating... with the same women.

She actually called me after that and apologized for not having believed me previously.

Fark that's sad. PM me some names and addresses and I'll see what I can do.

How do you know cheating is cheating?

In the modern world of open and polyamorous relationships you may very well embarrass yourself when running to the wife to snitch on her husband only for her to tell you she knows all about it.

I have had all but three girlfriends cheat on me. I am done. I just couldn't be fscking bothered anymore. I had friends that knew that a couple of them were cheating and never told me about it. We are still friends. I don't speak to any of those whores though.

Single for 2 and a half years and very fscking chill. I can lie in bed naked eating pizza scratching my nuts without having someone bitch about it.

I was going to fly down this weekend but decided against it :cautious: I miss the WC.
Yeah me too. Need to go visit soon but this Covid business scares me. Beach life in Moz is great but I do miss home.

Yes. If it ends the friendship so be it. I would want to know if the position was reversed

Nope, i always mind my business, What i have learnt with relationships is that people usually sort their **** out and you end up being iced out by both parties for snitching or try to ruin they relationship. so in the end you end up losing and they still have one another..... Easy to just mind your business.

Depends how close you are with your friend, and if you have hard evidence
