Congrats on the shitty friend.

Well, I am sorry you feel that way.

He's risking the marriage, which implicates more than just he and his wife now that they have a kid.
He's also cheating with another married woman.....so that's two marriages he's putting at risk.
I think that a good friend would remind him how much damage he can inflict on his own life and his child's.

Find better friends. He's selfish enough to ruin two families (one being his own). I would never trust him around mine.

This is good advice.
I'm the type of person that generally doesn't give my opinion to a friend unless specifically asked.
But every so often, I'll throw my opinion out there.. tell them now they know.. and never speak about it again unless they ask.

He's married, the chick he's fricking is married and he has a kid, he doesnt give a shite about any of that obviously.

No way man. You're just not enlightened enough to understand the modern woman.

Yes but the married chick has some skin in the game and she's 98% responsible for her marriage, not the guy she's cheating with. If it wasn't him it'd be someone else.

Tell him to tell his wife/stop cheating or you will go tell his wife about it. I don't care if they went a year without sex, cheating is never EVER warranted.

What a crock if shite. Nothing makes adultery right, but "not getting any at home" is as good an excuse as so can think of.

I understand what he's going through. Women suck. Has he tried to talk to his wife about the issues they are having? If so, has she been receptive? Tried to seek help? Or has she blamed it all on him?
Post baby issues are tough on a marriage. Women tend to forget about their responsibilities to their husbands as well as their child. Then, if you don't/can't talk about it, or husbands quit helping with the kid, it only makes it worse. They'll fixate on that while ignoring the underlying issue.
That being said, if it was one of my friends, I'd tell him to man the frick up and either work it out, or divorce her. Cheating is bullshite.

So you blame the user, not the dealer.

Tell him to stop being a piece of shite work on his marriage. If the work is put in, then it does not work, cut it off before the kid gets too much older.
Also, he needs to think about what he is doing to that other man and his family. He is not just hurting his.....

Kick your friend's @ss, tell him to quit being a dumb@ss and that you will tell his wife if he doesn't. I don't understand how someone can cheat on the mother of their children.
You know you can say arse, cock balls, frick, shite, ect.

If a friend confided in me this information, I would encourage him to stop and seek counseling. He is being unfaithful to his wife.

I didn't feel that way. But looking back, I wish I didn't know.

Contradictory.

Well yeah but it's sort of like introducing someone to heroin. They are responsible for their own actions, but you still suck for enabling them.
