You should talk about it with your partner - and help your partner get through it, because it is important not to leave him or her alone.

Loyalty and trust are 2 major parts to relationships. Cheating breaks both of those, you probably should. Usually when you love somebody you wouldn't cheat. If you feel like things can be repaired, you can try but don't string that person along if you feel that you can't commit.

If it was an act of impulse, breaking up with them might not be the answer. Yet, if you feel your relationship hasn't been fulfilling, and that led you to cheat, it is best for you to break up before it becomes a burden and hurt not only you, but your partner as well.

I think that only one person can tell you if you should breakup and that is your partner! You should be honest with them about what you did, and let them decide.

Yes you should. It's not fair on him / her. You might also want to consider coming clean about it...

In my opinion that depends on the reasons you have cheated: If you were bored and just wanted some action and fun, your relationship can't be that important for you. But if you were having a fight and got drunk and wanted to get these thoughts about your fight out of your mind or something similar, you should probably still try to save your relationship. I think that you just have to ask yourself whether you really love that person, whether you could imagine a future with your partner and whether you regret cheating. No matter whether you decide to break up or not, you should be honest with your partner, even if you do not love him/her anymore. If you want to stay with your partner, he/she should be able to decide whether he/she wants it under those circumstances, too.

I would talk to your partner and explain what has happened, just breaking up with them is no way to go about it.

You don't necessarily have to break up with them, but you should tell them. Which might end up ending the relationship.

You should be honest with your partner. If you cheated due to not being with your partner, you should still be honest and leave him or her.
