My friends' husband is on a dating site! Do I tell her?
Find answers to your legal question.





My friends' husband is on a dating site! Do I tell her?

ok I am on a dating site and I was checking my emails when I noticed a picture in the bar that shows most recent memberships. Well I was shocked to see my girlfriends husband listed in there. They have been married for over 12 years!!! He listed himself as single, not wanting children and looking for his soul mate! I dont see them on a regular basis, but I have known her since high school (class of 91). Do I tell her? I am so dissapointed in him! She is a very strong and beautiful woman.... and she has always been a person of conviction! What do you think?

they are not split up or anything and they both work. I have printed out the ad. I see her once a month... our kids are all friends

Hi babe, I'm late in replying to this I guess lol.
I've imagined myself in this scenario and after a lot of thought, I think telling her is the honest thing to do. Of course, there will be consequences, maybe the end of a marriage, but imagine yourself in the lady's situation ....would you want to know? I would.
I hope you are ok, and enjoying your new job by the way x

Yes. But do it discreetly, so that you aren't mixed up in anything that happens afterward. If he denies it you don't want her blaming you for lying!

I'd register an email address that had nothing to do with me, and then send her a link to the page with an apologetic note, offering sympathy, and showing that you feel bad for having to be the one to tell.

If he goes through with it, and has an affair he could get your friend an STD. He's endangering her health by doing this. So you need to tell.

Response to your edit- The mail thing is a good idea, and if anything comes of it, you two are probably close enough that she'll come to you if she needs support.

Print the page and mail it to her. Don't sign your name, most people like to shoot the messenger.

Arrange to meet him for a "date". Bring your friend along for support, tell her you might need back up in case you want a quick get away???

Caught right in the act!!

But if not tell her, she has a right to know.

I would say to tell her. It will hurt, but I think it's for the best. Make sure you can get back to the page though in case she wants proof. Also, make sure that they haven't split up. I know you said you haven't talked to her in a while and you don't want to make a fool of yourself.

Tell her. If she doesn't believe you then show her.

It is possible that someone is playing a prank on her husband as well though. Anyone can get someone's picture and sign them up on those things. So don't think he's cheating until you know the full story. But still, you should tell her then she can talk to him about it.

If you tell her, you will be the one to suffer. She will resent you and it will affect your friendship. If you feel urged to make her aware........

print out his profile and picture and send it to her anonymously. Preferably to her job so he doesn't intercept it. Then let it go.

This is painful but, yes someone has to open her eyes. She is better off knowing what he is up to.

Maybe you could invite her over to catch up at your place for a coffee or something, and show her your personal dating page. Then while you're both looking on the computer scroll over his profile and let her see it for herself. She will notice and recognise him straight away.

This way she will be in your company and you can help her handle the shock.

Its a passive way to let her know you noticed something. You can explain (if she asks) that you did notice it too and just wanted her to see for herself so you wouldn't be jumping to conclusions if you happened to be wrong.

Once she has seen it, it is up to her how to handle the situation. You can help her of she asks for support but it is no longer your problem.

YES!!!!!!!! Tell her NOW Wouldn't you want to know If you had a husband and he was doing that to you. You are not a good friend if you don't tell her and might regret it later like when he gives her an STD.

What a moron. He lists himself on a public forum. How about sending her the link and say..guess who I saw on the singles site I was on. Is the "husband's name?" It looks so much like him it is spooky.

They you don't look like a complete toad and she can show it too him and see what he says.


*Moni* VOTE 08!
I'd want to know.

Tell her, wouldn't you want to know?..I mean you could stop him cheating more than he already has.


Dew
Yes she needs to be told but in a gentle suttle way.you will need to have proof before she will believe you so I suggest that you show her on the computer.


~nicole~
Oh I would TOTALLY set him up. By meeting him as a potential date. Then blowing his cover. How fun would THAT be??!!

Yep, tell her. If he is making a fool of her, she needs to know. I would want to know and not be oblivious to his indiscretions.

tell her... if you were her wouldnt you want to know and expect your friend to tell you! If u dont want to get in the middle just explain to her that you dont want her to tell him she found him on there. She needs to know!!!!!

Yes.


pppppffffttt
OFCOURSE YOU SHOULD TELL HER! think how you'd feel? she needs to know her husbands an ***.


indi32
yes

A friend would not want to hurt another friend but a true friend has a bond to do so even at the risk of loosing the friendship. Maybe you can find a way to lure her to the site keeping yourself in the clear. I'm sure you can figure something out, use your "girly wits." Good luck.

yes, better it come from someone that REALLY cares about her.

OMG u have to tell her, somehow someway without being directly involved in it, do this ok..make up an email address so that it is not connected to you then email her the web page, send it anonymous and explain that you have known her for a while but for fear of becoming too involved in what this may bring you want to stay anonymous, tell her that you are not a man but a friend and that you care about her and what happens to her and that you would want someone to do this for you....this way you have no connection to it,...but she NEEDS to KNOW!!!
