We live in a small town and everyone mentioned in this post are acquaintances of mine, I'm friends on Facebook with the husband in this instance who I'll call Mr White.
Mr & Mrs White have been married for a few years with a 5 year old daughter. Mrs White was married to someone else when she got together with Mr White - was a long term affair. This was big news in our town for a while after it happened. There were also several other men linked to her while she was married previously and she got a bit of a name for herself. What was true and what was malicious gossip I don't know.
Fast forward a few years and I get told Mrs White is now having an affair with one of the town's serial philanderers who I'll call Mr P. I've known Mr P a long time and had first hand experience of his sleazy ways after he tried very hard to get me to go home with him not long after I was married. He knows my husband very well. I've spent a lot of time in his company and know his god awful views on women and the way he treats them as he's not shy about "boasting" about his exploits.
I was out a few months ago and bumped into Mr P who gave me this sob story about how he'd broken up with the live of his life who he'd been having an affair with for over 2 years but she broke it off because she couldn't do that to her daughter i.e. split up the family.
However since then I've heard a couple of instances where people have mentioned that Mrs White and Mr P have been in each others company again Mr White is on Facebook often and talk about what he's up to with Mrs White etc etc. All very innocuous.
The problem is I like Mr White and think he's being taken for a mug!! She is not a nice person. However they got together by having an affair... Also he may already know, I have to say that New White and Mr P are NOT subtle about it. It's fucking embarrassing.
So. WWYD?? Keep schtum?? The messenger always gets shot...
