I Told My Best Friend’s Boyfriend She Was Cheating, and Now I’ve Lost Her

My best friend had been in a long-distance relationship since her boyfriend moved to Switzerland. She first told me about a one-time mistake, but later admitted she was regularly seeing a coworker while still planning a future with her boyfriend. I tried to convince her to be honest, especially after learning that her boyfriend planned to propose. But she continued the affair. When he called me one night looking for her, I told him she was with another man and eventually gave him the coworker’s name. He confronted her, she admitted the cheating, and he ended the relationship. My friend says I betrayed her confidence and ruined her chance to relocate with him. I feel bad about losing our friendship, but I could no longer keep lying to someone who deserved the truth. Was I wrong to tell him?
