DEAR CHRISTINE: Dumped for family friend, should I tell?

Dear Christine,
For seven years I left no stone unturned for a man who swore he loved me when we first met. At that time he was having a terrible time with his wife. Now he has left me for another woman who claims to be a friend of the family.
If his wife knows what’s good for her, she would stop harbouring that snake in the grass. If that so-called friend thinks he is going to leave his wife for her, she is making a big mistake.
I am hurt but I will do all I can to forget him.
Do you think I should tell this man’s wife what is happening?
– P.C.
Dear P.C,
I can see clearly that you are a woman scorned and now you’re looking for revenge. You have the nerve to write this letter accusing the woman, after you and her husband spent seven years cheating on the wife.
I won’t be surprised if the wife knew about you and about this woman. There are, after all, some wives who are patient with their unfaithful husbands. Many of them know that at the end of the day these men are not going to leave the comfort of their homes for women who are easy prey.
If I were you I would keep my mouth shut and stay out of that man’s life altogether.
Do your utmost best to forget him. When you’ve done that, I’m sure you’ll look back and realize it to be the best thing that could have ever happened to you.
– CHRISTINE
