    It doesn't matter what she thinks of you after you've told her. She'll likely be angry, and the anger might just get misdirected at you at first, but you know you'll be acting in her best interest no matter what happens. That's what friends are for. Tell her what you saw.

    I think I would be inclined to tell her that you saw him at the hotel and leave it at that. It's then up to her whether she chooses to confront him.

    This will either confirm suspicions she already has or plant the seed and make her more aware of his actions.

  • At the end of the day it is your word against his.
    He created an alibi.
    You would have to disprove it which means involving his dad etc.

    not good for all concerned.

    I would say nothing.

    His alibi is nothing to do with Laura - she wouldn't have to prove anything.

    All she needs to do is tell her friend what she saw.

    I think this is a good way to do it tbh.

    For every one person saying that they'd want their friend to tell them e.t.c, there's another woman who won't believe what their friend has to say, accuse them of being jealous e.t.c.

    If you need to get involved, ask him first, you will be surprised at his reaction, he is bound to tell you to mind your own, what are you talking about? Who do you think you are etc?

    If you tell your friend expect anger,a million questions, denial, hatred towards you and your knowledge, it will stir up endless problems and emotions and why do that?

    I'd say to him while your friend's in the room "Oh, hey, didn't I see you at X hotel yesterday?". He'll probably deny it, and you can say "Yes, I'm sure it was you, you were with a young lady with short hair and a red dress (or whatever)."

    He won't admit it, but at least your friend will know that you think you saw him.
