First of all, show him how sorry you feel. His trust must be shattered, and you need to gain it back. Try your best to not be rude, aggressive or angry at all for sometime. Secondly, give him some space and time. If he truly loves you, he'll most certainly find a way to forgive you eventually.

Talk to him in person about what happened and why you did it. Promise him that you will never disrespect him again like that. If he says he can't trust you anymore, then ask for another chance and iif you really love him so much you have to show him that you are willing to do whatever it takes to get his trust back.

I would just be honest with him. Tell him what happened, tell him how you feel, and hope for the best.

You need to be honest with him. Tell him you messed up and tell him you love him. If he really loves you, he will be hurt at first, but he will understand that everyone messes up once in a while.

Don't be afraid of apologising but you have to be honest to yourself first , think about your feelings for him and if you really want him back and never ever cheat him again , go apologise and if you really are sincere he would understand and forgive.but if you want to fix because you are afraid of being alone and dont really love him , just set him free.

Relationships can be hard. Life isn't easy. There are temptations and it is up to you to be tempted or not. What has happened, has happened and there isn't any going back into the past to change it. The only thing now is to try and move forward. Does he know you cheated? Do you think he has a right to know? Are you scared to tell him? Do what you think is right however, you must also understand that your actions put the both of you and your relationship in this place now and if he doesn't forgive you...you must learn to move forward. It might not be easy. In fact, i believe if you truly loved him, then letting him go should be hard because you are letting go of someone you love. But it all comes back to your actions. So to answer your question... I don't believe this can be fixed but I think if he can find it within himself to forgive you... then hopefully the both of you can move past this. I wish you the best of luck. -LC

You don't, actually. You are now at the juncture where you experience the consequences of your actions. Your boyfriend is positioned to decide what he wishes to do in light of your infidelity. Show respect by acknowledging this is not about you fixing anything, but instead honoring his decision as to his future with you.

By being honest with myself and making sure I do not cheat again. I should not do to the one I love what I do not want him to do to me!

If you really were in love with your boyfriend, you shouldn't have cheated on him in the first place. I know this may seem difficult to hear but it's true. Sometimes you can't fix things like this, even if you say you love him.

You need to talk to him, not over the phone but in person. Explain why you did it and don’t be selfish about it. When I got cheated on it was worse because he didn’t tell me until after we broke up. Be honest with him.
