From biblical concepts, we are advised to be good Samaritans.  Some people have been hurt when trying to assist a friend whose partner is cheating or unfaithful.

Some have confessed to being ridiculed by the same people they tried to help out. This leaves you with a lesson that you should never meddle in some people’s affairs. If you spot someone cheating on your best friend, make sure you walk away silently and ensure your mouth is shut. If you try to play ‘'Kofi Annan”, you will suffer the consequences.

1. The two will gang against you later on

The two lovebirds are deeply in love remember. No matter whether you have evidence or not, stay away from people’s relationships. Even if you get your friend’s husband cheating, do not utter a word. They may make up someday and they will automatically gang up to hate you so much. 

2. Losing long-term friendship

Maybe the person you are trying to be a ‘Good Samaritan’ to, might be your long-term friend with whom you have done many things and undergone many things together. After meddling the two and maybe causing their breakup, she/he may blame you for telling her about it. They start thinking like, if it was not for your mouth, they could be in a relationship still.

3. Ruining your own relationship

The couple you are playing the 'Kofi Annan’ to, may end up ruining your relationship with your partner. After coming together and mending the stitches in their relationships, they may turn to your love and ask him/her to tame you in order for you to stop following their love affair. This may cost your relationship.
