Current Events > Dilemma: You catch your son cheating on his wife

(+) Yeah! (+)

You're at your sons place when you hear a clearly impromptu sex session going on. You're too polite to interrupt so you wait until they've finished, then enter the room to talk to your son and maybe make a dad joke about his activities.

That is until you are shocked upon entry by the fact it wasn't his wife on the bed this whole time but another woman who is undeniably much more attractive than his wife.

You feel descretion Is the better part of valor and leave but your son rushes after you going "Hey wait! Dad! Wait. "

He catches up to you and pleads "It's not what it looks like. You're not going go tell mom or my wife are you!? That would break her heart and destroy this family. I love my wife, you know that. That girl you saw, Taeyang? She means nothing to me.

It's just that....come on... you saw how hot she is. And she knows things. that a rich white girl just doesn't. I still want to be with my wife and support her and be there for her and wake up next to her every morning and raise a family and all that stuff... but ... come on.... She is a little boring and plain. Taeyang is exciting. So we do some purely physical stuff on the side completely meaningless just for fun. No one has to know, everyone gets everything they want. I'm happy, she's happy, everyone's happy. It works.

Come on dad, you're a man. You understand right?"

Would you tell her?
---

I'd keep it quiet. Though I'd resent my son for putting me in that position, to have to carry his self-destructive secrets.

---

It would be fun to tell her and see how things played out but I wouldnt be actually do that. Its none of my business. Id just tell him that this will blow up in his face and leave him to do what he wants

---

I beat the ever-living shit out of him first, then I tell his mother about it, and then I tell his wife.

He didn't put you in that position intentionally, you walked in on him
---

Tell him that he should have found a more fun/exciting partner in bed and not married someone boring in the sack. I would also suggest to him that he tries to get his boring wife to try new things as boring sex will force him to cheat again.

---

I'm telling my wife at the very least so if everything falls apart I wouldn't be in the shitty position of "you knew but you didn't tell me"

Anyway I can't forgive people who cheat on their partners, no exceptions.

---

Well since you painted me like a weirdo and my kid as a weirdo in this scenario, Id probably have just have cranked one out peeking in on them and left

This. Especially if his wife was a good woman who seems to love him a lot. If she was a bitch though I wouldn't really care that much.

I wouldn't tell anyone. It's not my place.

And TaeDAMN

He probably didn't find her boring when they got married

No, I'd pull the son aside and chat about this with him. Other than that, it's not my place to tell his wife.

That's a sexy pic though

Meh, people cheated with uglier people.

I'd black mail him into letting me and the BOYS run a train on his side piece hahah

It's not my place to say anything to his wife about it. As mentioned above, it will blow up in his face if he doesnt and remind him of that constantly. I have no business handling it myself, hes an adult and adults are responsible for their own actions.

Non weirdos don't cheat on their wives

I wouldn't say anything but I would be massively disappointed with him. One of the worst things you can do is cheat and I don't take that lightly.

I raised you better than this, Wesley!

go be the British black man that I know you can be, and come clean to your wife

Probably this, tbh. Especially if they have kids.

But it would depend on the situation and his relationship with his wife.

He's your friend and older than you

i've seen this porno before, you're supposed to tell the wife and then you fuck. bonus points if the son has to raise his new younger brother as his own...

---

My loyalty is to my son not his wife. She can be replaced, he can't.

....ok? Who said otherwise you weirdo?

That shit about replacing people
---

Parent etiquette would be to side with your kid over your in law unless were talking about a legitimate crime, which we arent here in the case of adultery. And that would be doubled down by how were talking a dad/son relationship here. Cant really imagine any dad ratting out his son to his daughter in law.

---

I'd absolutely tell her. If he didn't want his wife to find out he cheated then maybe he shouldn't have fucking cheated in the first place.

---

You are nuts. Simple as that. If she leaves him because of his cheating and he find a new woman....that woman would literally then be the replacement by definition.

Half of CE is

---

I would disown my son if I found out he was cheating on his wife.

Terrible thing to do someone

This. Either I tell her or you do.

I mean say the roles were reversed and your son was getting cheated on, would you want his father-in-law to tell you that his daughter/your son's wife was a cheater?
Or if your daughter was cheating on her husband would you tell the husband?

Some people just have standards when it comes to that sort of situation.

Poll is dead even so far

I'd tell him to give me a beej or I'll spill the beans.

It ok my daughter in law I here for you ( )

His shit is none of my business at all. You dont go around being nosey af then ruining other peoples relationships.
On the flipside if he slips and gets caught then that's on him I'll have no sympathy but it's his life to fuck up and make mistakes.
If hes getting some sexy asian woman on the side I'm not gunna stop him that's pretty great tbh

---

Make him tell her, I'm not raising a slut/hoe/home wrecker

Are ya winning son?
