Blackmail, of course, and then that person would have irrefutable evidence of you committing a felony, report you, you are charged, tried, and convicted and maybe you'll be out of jail in time to sneak in to see one of your children graduate from high school, college, or get married. Your DH will also have divorced you. Don't come back and say this is hypothetical because only someone low enough to do something like this would post such a question.


So how's that affair going?

If it was a close friend, I would tell her. Otherwise, I would avoid the couple at all costs.

My husband cheated on me, and I wish someone had told me.

Nothing.

Blackmail is illegal and my friend's marriage is absolutely none of my business.

I also wouldn't expect my friends to police my marriage and I can't imagine being angry with them for my spouse fooling around.

OP, if they have money enough to make you wonder about BM, watch out. They definitely will have money to make you disappear

And I don't think anybody would miss you.... 8)

Tell, I would want to know. When you found out later people knew, trust me, you will blame Thames and hold it against them for not telling you.

Exactly- why have friends then? You should be able to trsut that your friend has your best interest at heart and wants to protect you even if it means telling you one of the worst things you might ever find out.


Seriously? If blackmail is on the table then OP surely doesn't give a shit.


This was a general statement about wanting to know and friendships. I dont know what kind of scam the OP is pulling...but I dont think I want her to be my friend.
