Yeah, I can agree with that but instead of seeing yourself as a third party when you see yourself as the guy, it just gets a lot more complicated.
Because get this, this chick knew you were best friends she is playing with the heart of your best friend whom you've known since forever... Is there a moral obligation to let him know? Yes.. Should you do it? Probably Not because you don't want to be the guy to ruin the one thing your best friend had going for him..

So the question becomes would you rather him be ignorant and happy or informed but sad

Voila moral dilemma
