Friendship Dilemma
 

What do you do in this situation?

Michael had several friends including Roger and Daniel. Roger has recently met and started dating a wonderful lady named Phyllis. He is convinced this is a long term relationship. Unknown to Roger, Michael observed them at a restaurant several days ago and realized Phyllis is the wife of his other friend Daniel.

Michael is deciding whether to tell Roger that Phyllis is married when he receives a call from Daniel. Daniel suspects his wife is having an affair and since they and Michael share many friends and contacts, he asks if Michael has heard anything regarding an affair.

To whom does Michael owe greater friendship to in this situation? No matter who he tells, he is going to end up hurting one, if not both friends. Does he remain silent and hope his knowledge is never discovered?

tell Daniel that his wife is having an offer with your other friend.. what's the worst that can happen? the wife is the only person in the wrong so he can't exactly blame it on you and even if he is pissed about it at first after a while he'll come to his senses and realise that you did the right thing

You could always tell them both together

I would call Phyllis and tell her she has twenty four hours to sort the situation or I'm going to tell both her husband and her boyfriend.

Oh clever Livia

That Phyllis, she's a proper slag...

:laugh:

Roger is not aware that this woman is married so he is not in the wrong.

I would probably have a word with the woman first, and if she was unwilling to do anything I would tell both of them together and hope that Daniel doesnt take it out on Roger.. as I said, Roger doesnt know he is doing anything wrong as Phyliss is the bad one playing them both.

Would just tell them both, don't think I'd tell them at the same time though, if they don't know each other then that would just seem a bit pointless and not a very nice way for them to meet

Michael should stop having friends and die alone with his cats.

:laugh2:

I think Michael should hook up with Phyllis.

Who the **** is even called Phyllis these days

..I would confront Phyllis as well...whichever of his friends he tells he risks losing one..if not both...he isn't the one who's cheated....

..I don't think I'd give her 24 hours though....30 minutes... or 40 at a push.....

keep my nose out,

maybe her husband is a waste of space.

I would tell roger she is married and to dump her.

I think it was wrong of Michael to deliberate over this for a few days, as awkward as it is, because it means he's keeping their secret by not telling Daniel straight away, so the sooner he tells Daniel the better. Michael should tell Daniel what he knows but not give him Roger's name, just that he's only today put two and two together or make up some lie like that to explain why he didn't tell him immediately, and then tell Roger what has happened. As rubbish as it is for Roger, he'll get out of the situation with the least heartbreak. Phyllis is a monster and should be exiled from life.

Orgy?

This

Phyllis should date both tbh
