I need advice, please: Is it my place to say something?
So I've been put in a situation where my friend A, is between two love interests, and I don't know whether or not I need to say something to either one of these people.
Love Interest #1 is A's significant other at the moment. Love Interest #2 is out of town, but has extremely strong feelings for A, and is talking about moving here to Vancouver to pursue something serious with A.
A and Love Interest #2 had something pretty serious going on, and A still kept a secret relationship with #2 even after becoming official with #1.
Love interest #1 has been a very good friend to me since dating A, and A and I are best friends. It's been apparent recently that A will swoon and oogle at the mention of Love Interest #2's name, while at the same time telling me that #1 has been taking up too much of their time, and is becoming annoyed with #1.
Both #1 and #2 have expressed to me recently how head over heels in love they are with A. #1 and 2 don't know about each other.
I'm in a situation where I feel like I should tell #1 what A is doing behind their back, but because A is my best friend, I don't feel like I'm in any position to say anything. It's just that my conscience tells me different. #1 has been extremely kind to me since the day we met, and they're honestly one of the most genuine people I know.
I also feel like, because #2 has confided all their feelings about A to me, I should tell #2 that A has a significant other and that before leaving their life to come to Vancouver, they need to know the truth about what A is doing.... behind both their backs.
I don't know if I'm in any position to say anything to #1 or #2. I'm gonna have a long hard talk with A about everything I've been told about this situation and see what comes out of this. I feel that both #1 and 2 are very genuine people and don't deserve to be deceived in this way... I'm just extremely unsure if its my place to say anything.
