And? A lie is a lie. Just because she doesn't need to be aware doesn't make it any less scummy. There are plenty of ways to confess or get your feelings across, that doesn't involve a bold face lie.
Point of the matter is that she would have wound up finding out somehow, and he'd still have to answer to it.
He can date or do whatever he wants, just don't pretend to be who you're not lol.

You're preaching to the deaf. For some people here, no one owes Hikari anything. It seems that the definition of "friend" being used is simply "a person who is not hostile or an enemy" — rather than the usual "a person with whom one has developed a close and informal relationship of mutual trust and intimacy." The ten years of friendship between Hikari and Yuu mean nothing — and everything we've seen Hikari do for Yami means nothing either.

And since, to some, Hikari is just a girl too immature to deal with difficult issues that might hurt her, Yami and Yuu keeping her in the dark really was the best decision they could’ve made — even though she found out about a relationship between them in the worst possible way and ended up even more hurt. Yeah, it really was the best decision they made.

Paternalism for the win :|

Well, some people also believe that being friends with a person means revealing your whole biography to them, including who you slept with and when, and never hiding anything from them, like when their mother complained about their bad habit to you, or when your mutual friend called them stupid 3 years ago.

General rule of thumb is that if you think that the information would effect/change your friendship than yeah it's unfair to your friend to not share it - you're not giving them the chance to choose how to process something that you know is important to them and choose whether they want to stay in the relationship given this information. It's essentially tricking them into staying friends with you if you think the information would kill the friendship.

Let's say you absolutely despise their father who they love a lot. Or you read their private messages without them knowing during some falling out in the past without using that information in any way. Or you hold some political/religious views opposite from theirs which never come up in your conversations and are not really important but which you know they dislike.
Would you go and tell them?
