This friend of yours have a boyfriend/girlfriend that he/she loves very much. They've been dating for more than 8 years. They are such a lovely couple hoping to get married one day. All they talk about is how many kids they're going to have, their marriage, their future, they're really in love etc.

One day you're left alone with the girlfriend/boyfriend of your best friend for a brief moment and he/she starts touching you, kissing you, feeling you up, like basically sexually assault you and immediately goes back to normal when somebody walked in. 

You're shocked. This person is nothing like you had imagined and you're left with two options:

1) You tell your best friend what happened. 
2) You don't tell your best friend what happened. 

What will you do? Why?

1) You can tell him , it's a big probability that he will argue with her, he forgives her than says fuck off to you.
2)Well , that will be bad for your friend with a 80%  certainity

There is no simple answer to this , there are a lot of factor to take in consideration. Life isn't binary, it depends on the situation.
And if the friend is totaly emotional dependent to her , even if he caught her doing that , it probably won't  matter in the end .
