Cover up for an affair

29 replies

Jessy2903 · 10/07/2020 23:40

So... my friend is having yet another affair, only this time it's with her husbands friend!!!
I have told her time and time again she must leave her husband, it's not on etc etc.
Tonight, she text me and said- really sorry but husband thinks I'm out with you tonight, I panicked. I won't do it again.

She knows how much I disagree and hate what she is doing, but we've been friends for 20 years!
I just don't know what to do??

I would not tell her husband as she is my friend, but what am I meant to do?
Just stop being friends with her?!

Any advice great fully received!

Thank you x

"Yet another affair." There's just no way I could be close friends with anyone who behaves in such a trashy manner.

Sounds like the list of people prepared to lie for her is exhausted, so she's now trying to compromise a supposed long term friend

I'd get yourself on that list too, and I'd do it right now

Thank you all so much for taking the time to reply.

You are right, I do not want to be involved in this. I've told her time and time it's no fair what she does, she needs help etc but it's gone too far this time.
I will not be used to cover anymore.
I won't tell her husband, but I also won't lie to him.

I'm just disgusted at her, and she is not the person I met all those years ago.

Thanks all x
