recently, i went to party with some girl friends and we decided to go to a gay bar. =) as we were led to our seats, i happened to notice that the guy sitting next to our table is my friend's husband of 8 years. he is with a male entertainer at the bar and were passionately french-kissing. i was so shocked with what i saw that i asked the manager to move us to another table. all throughout the night, they were inseparable. the manager informed us that my friend's husband is gay and the male entertainer is his boyfriend. i also learned that my friend's husband is renting an apartment for the entertainer. i really wanted to tell my friend but im kinda scared that it might create a big rift between them and their marriage. i really pity her. help! what should i do?

You should definetly tell her. She might want to get checked for aids. I think it is your responsibilty to tell her, now that you know. Just think how you would feel if someone didnt tell you.

thanks for the advice... im really confused right now and i can't get it out of my mind. i guess i should really let it all out before it's too late & whether she believes me or not.

I think telling the woman that her husband is cheating on her with a man wouldn't be the best move for you. First of all, it's their family and you are not a member of their family, dude. Who knows? The woman may know it already and they have a consensus to keep the marriage as long as he is discreet. Or if the woman is really your friend and she truly is unaware of his husband's clandestine affair/s and you feel compelled to speak out because your conscience won't let you get a moment's peace, confront the HUSBAND. Let him know you know and let him be the one to tell his wife about it. But don't forget to tell your wife/mom about it in case something goes wrong, terribly wrong. hehehe, I hope not. Good luck!

Well, gay or not, he's definitely cheating on her and she deserves to know that.
