A bit of help here. I know that colleagues missus is cheating on him.

Well. There is a guy by the name of, lets call him C. C is married to a lady named W. I know C quite well. We are not exactly friends, but as young Advocates, we were often assigned cases together, and shared office space, so there is a bit of camaraderie, C, now lives and works in another town and I see him semi-regularly for work related activities.

I was at a resort for a conferance today and I saw W, locked in a rather passionate kiss with a man, most definatly not C. Well…none of my business I say. People want to have affairs, let them have it and deal with the issues, except later, W comes up to me abd begs me not to tell C.
I have no mind to, but once, C inevitably discovers that he has been cuckolded, what the hell will happen when he discovers that I knew.? I mean, I intend to be as professional as possible, but well this is not a good situation to be in at all.

Are you looking for advice or writing a geometry problem? We have plenty of names; we can spare a few for purposes of anonymity.

I don’t see why you wouldn’t continue to stay out of it. If you stay out of it, there’s a chance she’ll spill the beans and you’ll get in the shit. If you tell him now, you’re guaranteed to be in the shit.

MYOB. You’re under no obligation to tell him and you could get caught in the middle if you do.

Tell C(huck) that W(ilma) has something to tell him.

I perfer letters to names, just weird that way. :wink:

I want to know how to deal with the shit if and when it happens. I will be dealing with C for many years to come like it or not. We are lawyers, and we practice in the same area of law.

Do whatever the heck you think is right. You have a piece of information available to you, and you can share it however you’d like. What you do with it is, in fact, your business.

I think you are better off keeping your trap shut. You do not want to be caught in the middle, you know, kill the messenger and all that. Nothing good will happen if you do tell, I have been here before.

Poster is asking for advice – shifting this over to IMHO from MPSIMS.

Didn’t I see this whole scenario once on Silk? :dubious:

You didn’t see nothin’ and you never spoke to W. That’s your story. Stick to it.

It sounds like you fear your co worker will be angry with you for not telling him. I’m thinking his anger will be more directed at his wife and the man she is running around with rather than you. And, there’s always the chance that he himself is cheating as well. Would he want you to tell his wife if the situation was reversed?

I’m guessing the wife is not likely to make things worse by telling husband that his colleague has seen her cheat on him. Only bad luck would see you getting involved. On a side note, how common is passionate kisses type PDA in Pakistan?

Sit down, shut up and forget the whole incident.

Maybe getting half-caught will make (W)ilhelmina think twice about continuing the affair - but if you blow the whistle, you’re taking it out of her hands.

I think it’s time to become better friends with W.

This. I would think your colleague would not thank you for butting into his family troubles.

How badly do you need the hush money W is paying?

I don’t know Silk but since this scenario is as old as time I’d say “Maybe you did”.

I chuckled (was thinking the same thing) :wink:

BTW was it evil that my first thought was “leverage! muahahahaha”?

Do you know that they don’t have an open marriage? Is this any of your business?

If you answered “No” to one or more of those questions, stay out of it.

Do unto others… If your situation were reversed, would you want him to tell you?
