Default So. My friends made a mistake, what now?

Has anyone else been through this?

My good buddy had an affair with another buddy's wife.

I am also good friends with both of the wives.

How the h e double hockey sticks do I deal with this?

Thoughts? Advice? Filthy innuendoes? (Looking at your Fotze!)

I pretty much like all of them and would like to be friends to all of them. Is that possible?

My parents had some friends where the wife was sleeping with his son. She was the step mom so no crazy incest thing or anything. If I remember correctly I think they even had a child together.

I think you can still be friends with them, just make he isn't alone with your wife/gf @ any time

Well that's sort of the question isn't it?

He is actually a great guy, good to be around. Really interesting, Made a really bad choice.

Do I jettison him? Do I support him? I really like his wife and we have become really good couple friends. Then this.

Also, the buddy's wife is kind of a predator. I don't think he knew what hit him but I could be wrong on that.

That is terrible, and a tough spot to be in. I don't think anyone's advice will be right, you just have to do what you feel is right.

Both would quickly become ex friends of mine. People who have affairs are bottom scum to me. If you're not happy, get out of the marriage instead of hurting the person you said vows too.

I laughed. Sucks though because if I were you I wouldn't be friends with them either. Every encounter with the both of them would be crazy tense/awkward (in my eyes anyway).

Unless your willing to lose all of those friends, stay out of it.

Chances are no matter what you do your going to be the bad guy.

If you do tell, you're going to be the bad guy to some of them

If you don't it will eventually get out and you'll be the bad guy there too.

Personally, get a better quality of friends, maybe move out of New Jersey too.

I really don't understand the "get new friends" comments....what if he's been friends with these people for 20 years? should he just stop caring for his friends because they made a mistake? what are friends for then if you're just going to leave them when things get tough?

Cheeating is one of the worst things someone can do imo, but they are your friends and you shouldn't just stop being friends because of this.

It's hard to move on when the trust between 2 people is broken.

They all know. The good wife wants to reconcile the bad wife and her hubby want to pretend it never happened. The bad hubby is a little unsure what he wants.

Goes to a definition of friend. Can a good person make a bad mistake? If they do do you say ta ta? Do you help them through it? What kind of a friend does that make me?

I don't see cheating as a mistake. Both parties knew exactly what they were doing and have no respect for the marriage vows they made or the person they married. I don't know how anyone can support that.

Yep, I've had things like this happen in my circle of friends. All parties are now divorced and happier for it.

Your role is probably to stay out of it, but occasionally you may be asked for your advice, depending on the nature of your friendships. Do not give it! Later on you may be sucked into the drama! Unless you want that, stay neutral. Be supportive. Help your friends heal but don't be the guy that told so-and-so to do this or say that.

That's a "them" problem. #### it. People are gonna have sex, don't worry about it. Let the good times roll imo. Never understand why sex is such a big deal. Open relationships agogo baby.
