    What I would do is mention seeing him in a very casual, passive way. Like, "Hey, I saw Bob at XYZ restaurant in XYZ town while the hubby and I were there to eat. He must have had a meeting there? He seemed to have a good rapport with the woman he had to meet there."

    She probably already suspects, and by being so passive, you will not be the bad guy.
    We had us, we had him, now we have everything.

    My EX cheated on me & many people knew and didn't tell me. I was really angry with them for not telling me but then I would have been angry at tem for telling me.
    I would probably keep my mouth shut. He will slip-up eventually and get caught however IF you really think she needs to know send her a letter.

    Now if I had caught him I would have went right up to them & said "Hi John & Jane...oh wait YOU aren't Jane" & gave him the dagger eyes and walked away. That would make him squirm a bit.

    Tell on the little worm...Send her a letter a text or whatever but I would def tell her,he is using business "meetings"as an excuse to cheat on his wife. I mean why if this was a meeting would he have traveled 75 miles from home to meet this women are there no places closer to home to meet her?
    Be compassionate and teel her I am here for you if you need me but I think you should know....and let her know hubby was there as well and seen it (if he did).
    GOOD LUCK!
    Really?Thats probably not the smartest thing you have done today...HUH?

    I wouldn't tell because I had a friend going through this same thing and everyone that told her about it was the enemy trying to ruin her life. Once they were divorced she asked me why I didn't tell her and I just told her she didn't want to see it while wearing her rose colored glasses and I didn't want to lose a friend.

    This is such a tough one. I was in this situation...and not one friend told me that my husband had hit on them. But, he starting actively pursuing a co-worker of mine. I have no idea how I suspected, but whenever he went missing, I would call her house and ask if, by chance, he was there. She always denied it...but not because of anything she was doing with him...quite frankly he wasn't her type. She didn't tell me because she had a strong loyalty to my mother who had trained her in her job when this co-worker was a single mom trying to get a new start.

    Anyway...one day she told me privately that she had told my ex to leave her alone and quit dropping by her apartment. She said she told him that his attentions were unwelcome and that he was putting her in an awkward position. Even though I had thought something had been going on, I was quite frankly stunned...but it was the beginning of the end of our marriage. My husband pleaded for my forgiveness and wanted us to go through marriage counseling. However, he found someone else (while we were in therapy). When we separated for good...all my friends suddenly had a 'story' about how my ex had flirted with them.

    At first I was annoyed because I wondered why I hadn't been told. But, after a while, I was glad they had waited. I ultimately found out anyway. While I may have stayed in the relationship a little longer than I should have...when the break was final, I knew it was the right thing.

    So, my personal opinion is 'mind your own business'.

    However, I would have done what an earlier poster suggested...I would NOT have avoided him when I saw him. I would have gone right up to him and said hi! I would have introduced myself to the 'other woman' and said that I was a friend of the wife.

    And, I would have relished watching that worm squirm!!
    Never argue with an idiot. It will bring you down to his level and he’ll win because of experience.

    You never know what kind of relationship married people have.
    They may have an open marriage.

    I agree with dv8grl, in today's society marriage does not always mean what it did in the past.
    Many ppl have an understanding, they look the other way as long as the spouse is coming home and has no plans on leaving.

    Thats sad but I think its true too. People value security over fidelity I think sometimes.

    it just doesnt sound like an open marriage to me,after living there for 10 or 15 years,i am sure the wife would have opened up to the other ladies,or she would have let something slip out,and hoped no-body heard it.
    now as for me,i would send a letter.that guy is a dog,and she may get pissed,but she will get over it
    And what if he brings her home a desease-come on,everyone,that just wouldnt be fair-i say tell
