My best friend (Lucy) is currently travelling in India and has been doing so for the past 6 months. Her boyfriend (Dan) joined her for the first three months but he has returned to England and they have spent a few months apart since then.
Anyway, her boyfriend has a lot of friends at my uni and often comes down here for nights out; her boyfriend and I are on good terms but we're not exactly close.
One of my closest mates was scrolling through my FB photos with his girlfriend and she saw a picture of me and Dan and said to Will "Oh, is that guy's name Dan and is he from X and play for Z's sports team?" - it turns out Dan had got with/made out with Will's gf's sister on a night out and had asked her back to his (she declined) and then proceded to try to contact her via text over the following 3 days.
So, through sheer luck I have just discovered that my best friend is being cheated on by her boyfriend.
I have never been in this situation before but how should I go from here? Should I keep my nose out of it? Should I tell her? I mean, I know I haven't discovered the info at first hand but I have checked my sources maticulously and unless there is someone identical to Dan, who plays for his sports team and is from the same town as him then it was definitely him (I also happen to know he was at my uni that night because he tweeted about it).
The thing is, she is not back in the UK until 3 weeks time so I think I should wait until then before making a move, there's no point in me ruining the final part of her holiday when I don't have the chance to sit down and have a proper conversation with her.
Another annoying thing, is that I was told this information on the condition that the person Dan got with does not have her name mentioned at all by me. Her sister told Will that Will can't tell me unless I agree on this, pretty much the girl in question is only 16 (used a fake ID) and her sister does not want her involved in any drama when she knew nothing of Dan's relationship. This is a small pain in the arse but I'm just hoping it isn't pressed too much by Lucy if/when I tell her.
Thank you kindly if you have read and understood that, I realise it might not be clear (I need a diagram or something!).
Really appreciate any pointers from people who have been in similar situations, it's a big weight on my mind right now.
Put the internet to work for you.
