I empathize with OP. Some years ago, my boss was having an affair with someone who reported to him. There were rumors about this but he confided this to me most likely because he knew that I would not tell anyone. Thereafter, he'd share details including the status of the relationship and other goings on while he was involved with her. I think she also knew that I was aware of the relationship.

It only became awkward because we used to occasionally socialize with my boss and his wife who happened to be a lovely person. I found it difficult at times to interact with her given what I knew was going on but kept my mouth shut. FWIW, he is still with his wife and the woman he was having the affair with moved on to other things but it was a relationship that went on for almost three years.

Not telling her is utterly irresponsible

I'm inclined to think the same way. Maybe an anonymous note.


+2. I think an anonymous note, at least so she has the opportunity to get STI tests at her annual exams. What a shitty situation. I totally understand the "MYOB" crowd, but STI's are serious, and some aren't curable.


Well then you all better get started on some letter writing, because just about every married man (or woman) could cheat on their spouse given the right set of circumstances.

This neighbor was drunk and said something that he probably should not have said. He hasn't actually *done* anything though. Going over and telling the neighbor lady that her husband *might* cheat on her is you being a busy body. Just stay out of that. Seriously.

I love getting drunk with neighbors, coworkers and friends - it really brings everyone in close.

The anonymous note is so f'ing lame.

I would just distance myself from him. He's a messy drunk on top of other things and that's bound to cause trouble sooner rather than later. I'd slowly work them into becoming the friends we wave at in passing.
