A great way to fix anything is with communication! its always great to communicate to the person and tell the truth. I know thats very hard to do but the best thing to do is tell the truth and help your boyfriend understand how much you love him. Its not good to keep lies in.

By being honest and talking about what you did ...apologising sincerely for the hurt , and doing whatever you can do to repair the relationship. Trust is very hard to build and so easy to lose ... think about whether you can be faithful going forward before trying to patch things up....

Everyone makes mistakes, because we're only human. But as you can imagine, he'll probably be pretty hurt. The most you can do is show that you still love him and he means a lot to you. If he doesn't know, depending on the situation, it might be best to tell him. Trust is better than lying, but it all depends on your situation.

Everyone makes mistake, and just because you did something terrible doesn't mean you're a bad person. Make sure he knows you made a mistake, and you have to work with him and the emotions he is feeling

Tell him what you did. Be honest, if you really love him, and he really loves you, he will forgive you.

understand that it is completely up to your boyfriend if he wants to leave or not. you CANNOT stop that. know that you did do the wrong thing, you broke his trust and much more. be honest with him about it, tell him why you did it ect. many people cheat because something is wrong in there current relationship - make sure you tell him what this is WITHOUT accusing him or being harsh (phrase it "I feel like we have a problem with.." ect)

You said "love." This is a very strong word. I recommend that you See a concealer because You need to figure out what brought you to cheat. You have to explain this to him in the best way you can. Say to him what you would want him to say to you in this situation. If he stays or if he goes is up to him. But you will be okay. I promise.

First thing, you should be honest with him. Seriously, honesty will help you a lot. When you're honest with him there's a fat chance that he'll understand. Of course it's horrible to know that you've been cheated so be ready for some reaction. Adopt the actions speak louder than words and 'show' that you truly care for him. Instead of telling him that you love him, show it to him. Repeatedly let him know that you regret what you've done and you're sorry and that you love him. And last but not the least, give him time because only time can heal his wounds. However in giving him time, don't forget to always let him know that you love him.

You can apologize and hopes that he still loves you after what you have done. There is no garanteed way to secure your relationship, for what you have done is wrong, although can still be forgiven if he can look over your mistake.

You must tell him, hiding this will only make matters worse. And after lying to him by cheating the risk of having him find out for himself will show him that you are not honest and it often makes people feel like you will never be honest. Whereas if you told him now, admitted, confessed and apologised letting him know you could go on pretending nothing happened because it hurts you. He could see that you care for his wellbeing and told him to begin mending that trust back together. Everything will hopefully work out in the end. Promise to never tell a lie to him again and what you had was special and what happened with the other person wasn’t. If you never wanted to hurt him and/or were under the influence of alcohol let him know.
