I'm a bit confused as to whether she died, or is just no longer a friend? Your secret sounds like it's in the past.

I think not telling someone in these situations is always for the best. I've been in your situation a couple of times, and it is horrible, but I always did remind myself that i wouldn't want to be with a married person, I know people who've gone down that route, and it's just awful and painful and the third party often wastes years clutching at straws. I also know a couple of relationships that are people who were originally in an affair with each other, and now they can't trust their new partner, knowing they both cheated and that's how they got together, makes for a very paranoid future.

The other thing I realised is that if the person felt the same way there are two options, they feel so madly in love with you that they would think of ending their marriage, or cheating, or even just telling you and having a non sexual romantic thing. Second option is they feel the same way, but don't want to risk their marriage which still comes first, in which case you telling them is just awkward.

The other option which in my case I concluded is that they don't return your feelings and like you as a friend, even if they flirt a bit, and telling them would just be awkward.

I think unless you knew she might return your feelings, or her marriage was an open one, then you did the right thing in the end and shouldn't regret that.
