I think as a friend you could as her to make sure first if what she is thinking is true in the first place before thinking of divorce. I mean divorce is not like a simple or to be taken lightly type of issue neither is marriage.

It shows a clear cut lack of confidence or understanding .. which one ... i am not sure though. Plus no one on confrontation esp. when newly wed is going to accept it ... so i personally feel she should think things over , find out what the matter really is and tactfully handle it .

Its needs delicate measures .. as such things can make or break a relationship.

I may be naive, But I thought there were no divorces in India????

But also think.. it's her problem.
however.. since he is a friend.. If you ever hear that he is in fact cheating, I think you should tell him as a friend that he is doing wrong.

well...u are naive to an extent there hun. divorces are rapidly growing in india as women gain financial and social mobility. however, it's still lower than in western countries.

i know for a fact he is having an affair...i have caught him sex chatting with a lady on his comp and then he told me he meets her as well (he didn't know i knew about the sex chatting...he thinks i think he is friends with her). i really don't feel good knowing this and not letting my friend know. i feel like a partner in crime.

If you know what you know..then tell him if he doesnt say anything..
that you will tell her..give him the option to be open first...

If not then be a friend and tell the truth

doing the right thing is so hard.

i think he married her because his parents made him...and partially because she has a lot of money. i also dated him for a while...MAN...HE WAS A DOG

A few basic questions come to mind...

did you encourage/help facilitate or endorse/support the decision of their marriage?

If he was cheating/unfaithful to the vows of the marriage would
it alter /change your friendship with him?

the confrontation issue, thats her responsibility, however if you have a the knowledge or ability to help in anyway I feel a true friend is obligated by the friendship to support the other.

Finally I have always thought friendship (true ) made one obligated to help/assist the friend.
Afterall, what kind of friendship is based on only sharing the good times?

marriage is such a personal decision that i don't think it's any of my business...even as a friend to support/not support/facilitate/not facilitate it. i did warn her that he was a player and advised that she reconsider. however, she was all too excited and didn't reconsider (i am sure if she had...she wudn't have married him of all ppl). anyway, i tried to put on a happy, poker face for her.

now that i know he is a shit head...i might choose to stay away from him...completely. i never thought him to be my friend...but i kept talking to him and being nice for my other friend. no need of that anymore. the whole thing with cheating on a partner really upsets me and ticks me off. anyway, i am helping my friend find a place to stay...i offered her a place at my house but my parents are here right now and she felt a bit embarassed. i am taking care of her and making sure she is kept as happy as possible.
