Daniel told me about it when it happened, but he said he tried to discourage Jake and was upset with him for cheating. However, he ultimately felt that he couldn't control his friend's actions. Despite this, Daniel still went to a party where Jake and the woman he was cheating with were present, which really upset me.

Daniel admitted he didn't feel great about going, but he said he had nothing better to do since we were long distance at the time. He claimed he was still discouraging Jake from cheating the whole time. According to him, Jake's cheating only lasted about a month and ended shortly after the party. When Daniel told me about it, I felt really uneasy knowing all this information.

He made it clear that I couldn't tell anyone as it would break his trust with Jake and, in turn, damage our relationship. He even said it would end our relationship because it would be a betrayal of trust. I probably wouldn't have said anything anyways since I barely knew Jake or Sophie, but the way Daniel framed it made it feel even more restrictive. I understand his perspective.

It's not really his business what his friend does, and he did try to talk him out of it. Still, it felt really icky. Also, Daniel and Jake are part of a larger all-male group, and Daniel didn't want to insert himself into Jake's mistakes and risk losing his other friendships over it. Fast forward to now. I've spent time with Sophie and Jake several times, and I actually really like them both.

I feel like Sophie and I could become really good friends, even outside of our relationships. Jake is also nice and funny on his own, and we've always had a good time when we hang out. However, I'm hesitant to get closer to either of them because I know about the cheating from almost two years ago.

On one hand, I know it's not my business, but I would feel guilty growing closer to Sophie while keeping this secret from her. Their relationship does seem to be in a great place now, and I don't want to lose Sophie as a friend or be responsible for breaking them up, since the messenger often gets blamed.

Ideal outcome would be that Jake had already told Sophie about the cheating and they have already worked through it on their own and I can become better friends with them and not be worried about keeping the secret. But honestly, I don't know what an ideal outcome would be.
