Should my friend lie about his affair?

Well in this day & age - it's unfortunate that people turn to others without dealing with the issues at hand!!! And by avoiding the question - he's just making matters worse for himself. I would hope that he would take the time to sit down and find out what's not working in his marriage and see if there's anything he can do to make things better and if not then he needs to be open & honest with his wife so that they can end things properly although if she doesn't know about the affair - whew I definitely feel for him!!! I find it sad when people put themselves into a situation like this!!! I sure hope he's able to come out of this feeling like he's done the right thing!!!
