yes, it will come out sooner or later. is better if you're honest and tell him the truth. Than lie to him and carry that weight with you all the time . Good luck!

Honesty is always the best policy. Im not proud of it but I had flirted hevily with another guy while I was dating my now husband I told my husband and he forgave me. You may not have the best out come like I did but honesty will make you feel free and better.

I think it would be best, to be honest with him. It wouldn't be fair if you kept it from him but make sure you're safe.

Yes. The basis of any relationship is trust. Trust can be lost, abused, destroyed, but it must always be rebuilt if the relationship shall have a future. And trust can be rebuilt. It's neigther fast nor easy, but it's the only way your relationship has a future!

It's always better to tell the truth before the roots rot, and in my point of view you have to. There's no point in a relationship if there's no honesty -> trust going on. I advise by sitting down with him and telling him everything calmly. He probably will get mad but later on he will appreciate your honesty. I cannot promise you will stay together but it's much better to be honest than hiding.

Honesty is key in every relationship, but despite the fact that some refuse to admit it. Sometimes things are better left unknown. If you genuinely learned your lesson and have no intention on cheating again. You could withhold that info from him, but it really just depends on the person and relationship.

That is a question that is best answered by you. There are some things to consider before telling him what happened; i.e., will he end the relationship, will he want to know the details of the encounter, why you cheated, was this the first time, was it a one time encounter, and the like. The reason you want to tell him should also be considered. Are you telling him to clear your conscious or for the betterment of the relationship? Being truthful is something that we should always strive to be, just be prepared for the consequences of your actions.

You should! It will cause you guilt and stress, and end up being more difficult than your initial decision to not tell.

Well yes it’s the right thing to do, you’ll feel much better once you’ve got the secret out of your system. Like they say, honestly is the best policy. Cheating is wrong and you know that. You should really speak to them about it.
