Should I tell my boyfriend that I cheated on him?

so about a six months ago me and my boyfriend split up for a bit and during that time me and a guy friend of mine went out for a bit then he went back to the military and then me and my boyfrind got back together. Three months ago my guy friend came...

back for a couple weeks and we kinda hooked up one drunken night. I love my boyfriend with all my heart but I don't think he would want to be with me if he knew I cheated on him. do you think I should tell him or just pretend like it didn;t happen and leave it as a mistake I should learn from.?

From a guy... DO NOT TELL HIM! If you do, all hell will break loose. Who knows what will happen. Almost all rational guys will snap and go ballistic. Better to not let him know.

However, if you EVER cheat on him again, you tell him... about BOTH times.
and if you cheat on a man twice, its probably better you aren't together anyways.

Good Luck!

Your guilty conscience is taking over...and your feeling bad that you did wrong by your boyfriend, and he deserves to know all the facts before deciding he wants to be with you. If you feel you need to be honest, then tell him and see what he decides. But if you can move past it forget it happened and make sure it doesnt happen again...ever..then pretend it never happened and out of respect to your boyfriend, dont have any contact with this guy friend of yours.

I would just pretend it never happened and DONT DO IT AGAIN!!! I feel sorry for your boyfriend.. but there could well be secrets he has hidden.. Just make sure you take all the precautions to making sure it doesn't get out, like this guy friend of yours telling him or one of his mates who may know your boyfriend... be careful and aware

You need to tell him. You owe it to him.
Everyone makes mistakes. Trust me. I've had my fair share Maybe he'll forgive you this time.
Haha but you should really tell him and its his decision to stay with you or not.
Good luckk.
And dont do it again!

I say if he is a guy who would want to know tell him but if not then I say just break up with him since it's clear you were unhappy with him or you wouldn't have cheated.

hey thanks guys for the help especially Smexii im just freaking out agian because this guy friend is coming back home soon for a year but I've talked to him about leaving me alone and not to tell anyone what happend that night and he said he didn't. we're still going to be friends just not going to be seeing each other as much. I say as much because I can't advoid him he's friends with all my friends, so basically just see him when we're out at group events.

He deserves to know. If he loves you, he will forgive you and realize that you are sincere.
You need to admit your mistake because it will take hold of you, and it will not go away.
You can't pretend like this has never happened.
Everyone is entitled to the truth, you are robbing someone of it.

your right naltimari he would go balistick if I told him. I've decided not to tell him. it will just cause him unessasary pain. I Do feel gulity.. how can you not but its my mistake and therefore something I should live with and have for the last 4 months now. if I've gone this long without going insane with guilt then I can go on longer. I may tell him someday just not now. thank you everyone for yout help though.

if you love him you would tell him...
