[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel for you OP - it's an awkward situation to be in.  Years ago, my friend had an affair that began before their wedding and continued.  I would go to dinner and when the spouse would use the restroom, the friend would tell me all the dirty details of the continuing affair.  I was mortified and had to then sit through a dinner with the unsuspecting spouse.  I stopped returning calls and didn't invite this childhood friend to my wedding.  This was 20 plus years ago - and years later, the couple is still together, raised a family, and retired early to travel the world. [b] I did what I had to do and did not interfere and I'm glad I did because it somehow worked itself out[/b].[/quote]

This is why I am not interfering.  The friend and the "lover" had been close for some time, and I suspect the spouse may know or at least suspect things?  Or is staying deliberately clueless. I always denied the rumors as I am a person who doesn't believe it until I see it and prefer concrete proof.  Also family dynamics are complicated and even with close friends sometimes what we see is a tip of an iceberg.  A lot may be going on.  I just cut off the "lover" and also because of the actions of this specific person[/quote]
