If you are sure that the other relationship is intended to be exclusive,
then definitely it is awkward to interfere.  Probably the best thing to do
is to ask the woman if the first relationship prevents her from building
another relationship with you, and if she says yes, leave it at that.

I personally have had the experience of being on the other side of the wall
(so to speak) -- having a non-exclusive, non-sexual friendship with a man
being mistaken for something more by other men.  It can be very frustrating
when everybody assumes you're "attached" when you're really not...
