Stuck in the middle of a Jeremy Kyle-esque love triangle! Arrrgh

I can confidently predict at some point among the replies to this thread someone will call 'troll'. I'm a namechanger. I have been away for a while. Do I need to do the red rug, SWMNBN, river of poo bit?

Anyway, one of my best friends has broken up with her DH because she has had a few affairs (see how I made that sound quite insignificant a few Hmm).

She met at least one of them on a website for people seeking marital affairs (I had no idea there were them but apparently so). After having a long conversation with her about it, I went and had a look at this site and identified the man she was seeing from what she said about him.

Here comes the kicker...... He's my other best friend's husband. Shock

and she has no idea!

Friend 1 has no idea I know that she's dating friend 2 and friend 2 has no idea she's married to a worthless scumbag who has told such a tapestry of formulaic lies to friend 1 (including the classic 'my wife doesn't understand me and we never have sex' Hmm)

I'm avoiding both of them. I don't know what to tackle first. Frankly I reckon friend 2 gets priority since she could conceivably discover his internet whoring with a few clicks. Or do I tell HIM to stop fucking around and hopefully put the lid on the whole lot (I'm not hopeful).

DH reckons I should invite the whole lot of them around for dinner but he's just a big meanie.

Kind women on Mumsnet, what the heck do I do now!?

i think uve been brave!

Sorry but she sounds like a right scumbag creeping back to the estranged husband she is as bad as him.

OTOH, you have been very brave heard anything from F2??.

jimmenycricket · 21/08/2012 17:45

Her DH wants her back - she's been the one saying no! Hmm

Nowt as queer etc.

I have heard back from F2. The gentleman concerned is staying at his mums and she's told him basically to FTFOATFOSM. And he's now taken to standing outside their her house shouting declarations of devotion. She borrowed some speakers from me today so she can just play loud music (detached house) so she can just ignore him. I'm putting her in touch with my other friend who is a family law solicitor for advice. She's not mad at me. She has suspicions but ignored them but she's glad she knows and apparently things make sense now she knows (I assume he was skulking).

Tell the wife of the man who is shagging your mate. You have no other option.

JustFabulous · 21/08/2012 17:56

God, I really must learn to read the whole thread Hmm.

OMG What a prick. Bit late for that isn't it?

True story but I went on one of these sites........As a family member told me he was on it. One of my outlaws.......

I went to look. They all come out with romantic bollocks. All the hypocrisy. "I'm truthful, honest, you can take me at my word, reliable, " Oh really!?!

I saw a neighbour on their. I knew not by the pic, there was not one........the profile. Some people are so fucking stupid.

Houseofplain · 21/08/2012 17:59

on there*

jimmenycricket · 21/08/2012 18:19

Houseofplain - exactly my point. Why the heck would you put yourself on such a site. You are bound to get found out. Hmm

My neighbour is in his seventies and thinks he's a bit of hot stuff. God I'd hate to find a picture of him on there. Bleee
