you should definitely have a talk with him. Honesty is one of the most important keys to a relationship, you wouldn't want a relationship built with lies should you? It's always better to say the truth wether it's good or bad because if he doesn't hear it from he might feel like he can't trust you anymore if he finds out through someone else. This way if your honest with you can tell him how you feel and why you did it and things nights just end in a good term.

That's a tough one. But if you intend to take the high road, you must make the difficult choice of disclosure. I guess he deserves that and the consequent choices.

Yes, he has the right to know that you cheated on him. He will obviously be mad, but he still has every right to know

The key to a successful relationship is honesty. Telling the truth will make you feel at ease and if he still forgives you thats wonderful.

Yes, you should. It is extremely important to be honest with your boyfriend, because he will need to know all these things that happen in your life.

Yes, you should. As someone who has been cheated on, it hurt A LOT to know that when they cheated, they didn't let me know. One of my boyfriends told me if I were to cheat, to tell him, and we would talk it out. This was because he believed in words. I do not know your relationship standpoint, but I do know that you are in the wrong and he should know.

Yes. Relationships must be based on trust. Not just for your boyfriend's sake, but for yours too. Keeping something like that secret, it doesn't go away. It will eat away at you, which will sabotage your relationship either in the short term or the long term. Being honest may cause a breakup, but unfortunately, there is no win-win option when it comes to cheating.

The best answer would be yes, to tell him the truth, but I recognize that the fear of losing him might stop you from doing so. But think in it as doing it for yourself, don't think in the consequences, leave it for a bit later, you should first think that if you tell the truth, you will be showing true regret to yourself as well as being honest with yourself, and even if things do not endup the best way, you have personally grown to be someone better. Not someone better to please others, but someone better for yourself.

Yes , despite how hard it is a honest relationship is always better. Explaining to him why you cheated is helpful and if he is commited to you he will stay

Honesty is the best policy when it comes to relationships. If he finds out later it could be ugly or worse if you wait.
