Because Mel has a crush on Chad and is trying to get into his pants, Sarah is looking out for her and they assume that Sage is gonna be pissed when she finds out.
Well, that's certainly one take. I think it's completely wrong, but you do you.

On a more serious note. I notice this now for the first time, but my guess is that her reaction is one of the first hints we got about her wish of being a mother/possibly a lost child.

Sarah to Mel says something among the lines of that it's better for Sage to continue on knowing nothing, rather than to find out the painful truth. I don't think Mel trying to get in his pants would make Sarah say something serious and deep like that, that doesn't seem to be her nature to me.

I don't think Melanie and Troy are related, here is my theory maybe Melanie/Sarah walked in on Troy and Chad since they weren't being so secretive about their relationship. I mean if Fuckface of all people knows about their relationship and magnar chances are other people know. Since Mel and Sarah know Chad is going out with Sage, and will severely bruise Sage's self esteem with her boyfriend fucking a dude while with her, they decided to keep quiet about it and just talk with chad about that.
Are we theorising that Melanie and Chad are closer friends than Melanie and Sage?

Even if that were the case, if I know my friend is cheating I am 1000% not letting them get away with that and telling their partner.

Maybe Melanie wouldn't react the same way but that shows bad character IMO.

That's why I feel like there has to be a bigger reason for her to keep quiet, otherwise its just so shitty towards Sage.

(It wouldn't matter to me if my friend was secretly gay, i'm still telling their partner that they are cheating/making them tell their partner they are cheating if I know about it).

Melanie is actually Tory's mother which makes her Chad's to-be mother in law

To add onto this, i've actually had to do this myself. It was uncomfortable as hell but I learned that a friend was cheating and made them admit it to their partner. It was unconfortable but would have been way worse not telling them.

I'd recon it depends more on the situation & circumstances.

But here is the thing that is a you case, Melanie and Sarah are not that close to Sage. In fact, Sarah's proposition was Sage will graduate anyways, so no use telling her. A real friend would not even do that.

Not discrediting your experience but this is the route that melanie and sarah chose.

Its a way better theory than saying welp, she and troy are siblings so that is how they know even though when we haven't gotten any scenes or dialogue that indicate that.

Maybe I am putting myself in their shoes too much.

I just would not be letting Chad get away with cheating if he was my friend, regardless of him being in the closet.

but saying "he is cheating" not same as saying "he is cheating and he is gay". and I believe they can't just saying he cheating but then ignore all other questions like with whom etc. say that he is cheating expose him as bad partner, but if they tell his big secret that make them bad. just saying maybe this is their logic.

I don't think it's bad to out someone if they are cheating on their partner.

They don't have to broadcast it to the world, just tell Sage in private (or make Chad man up and tell her) so she stops being taken for a ride.

sure. BUT if they actually better friends with Chad then with Sage then their choice work for them. also even if they tell about him - now it is more people know about this and there more chances that rumors start. also there is a big chance that this will negatively affect not only Chad but Troy also. in their logic they soon graduate and move on from this relationships and nobody will negatively affected, and if Sage don't like it so much she can break up with Chad. at least I think that was their logic.
anyway Sage now with better partner and we will make happy family :cool:

then our family will just be bigger. Quinn and Cammy. at this point I trust Sage's taste :WeSmart:
I'm of course not talking about that. There is a good chance that if you made your character 100% DIK (status, affinity and all major choices), MC is going to be a very abusive partner in the future. :devilish:
