Would you tell your best friend a secret about her husband?

I would have thought the husband would be man enough to have told his wife. If you want to be happy with this man, then I think you should tell her. I think she has a right to know. Do you really want a man that will cheat on his wife? The same thing might happen to you?

Why bother after all this time? You could loose your best friend. Digging up the distant past only ever causes bad feelings, maybe he told her years ago and she chose not to mention it to you. Bringing it back up could cause a bad reaction. Let sleeping dogs lie, unless this is something that is still going on in which case you need to speak to him first.

It depends on the secret. Sometimes it is better to leave well enough alone. If he cheated and still is then yes you should tell her. Anything else that might hurt her if they are now in a good marriage should be kept and forgotten. No good can come of it.

Yes! The guilt will eat you alive. Get it off your chest, don't go to your grave with a secret like that. If she is truly your friend clue her in by telling her the truth. Feeling really guilty is evidence enough that you need to tell your friend this dark secret that you can no longer hide. Guilt is probably written all over your face. When you tell her the burden of guilt and shame will be lifted from you.

Okay, you say you haven't cheated with your best friends husband " it more serious than that". I'm not sure what would be more serious than that unless you A) used to date him and still like him, B) You used to be married to him, or C) You have a child together. If she is your best friend you should tell her, unless you don't think it will ever come back to haunt you. Everyone is wondering though what could be more serious than cheating with your best friends husband...

no i wouldnt tell her..you will only hurt her...i wont change anything except you will have ruined a friendship and possibly a marriage..learn to deal with youir guilt in another way...

Its best you let sleeping dogs lie. Dont stir up the past cause it could come right back and bite you in the butt. Since nothing has happened for so many years, maybe its better to let it go. If you keep feeling guilty, you need to swollow it as you have no choice. If it is the kind of secret that could destroy lives, please keep it. Make you peace by perhaps going for confession (if you are a catholic) and then just forget about it. Its for the best.

It would depend on the secret I suppose. If it were something harmless that wouldn't matter that much either way, I'd probably just do my best to forget about it. If it's something that she has a right to know though, as a friend I would consider it my duty to inform her. Out of respect for the marriage though, I would probably talk to the husband first and give him the chance to come clean about it.

Alot depends on what type of secret. It may be best to let it go but if she finds out would it be the end of your friendship. If my best friend kept something secret concerning my husband I would be upset.
