Should I tell my boyfriend that I cheated?

Yes. It may not seem like the best decision, but it’s better to tell the truth and have an honest relationship and just hope he forgives you. It’s always better to tell the truth and know it may not end well than hide the truth and keep secrets. Yes, he may decide your guys’ relationship isn’t for him, but if you don’t tell him the guilt will eat away at you. Tell him right away when it happens rather than wait and have him be more upset that you kept it from him for so long. You can choose to do the right thing and tell the truth. Even if it doesn’t seem like the right choice.

Well if you still like and care about him then by all means you should tell him what happened! I know this might feel risky and scary but its really the only way to make peace with yourself and with him as well. You won't achive much if you try to hide it anyways , he would find it out sooner or later anyhow.

Yes, it’s important to be honest and if you’ve cheated your heart can’t be in the relationship anymore so why waste your time as well as theirs? It will hurt however could you imagine further down the line the impact of it? It could leave even more scares for your partner, scares which they’ll carry with them for he rest of their life and probably impact/affect their other relationships. It’s also important when telling your boyfriend and being unfaithful that you explain and answer any questions for closure - it’s not fair to leave the other party with unanswered questions that may haunt them. Not telling them would be a lie that would haunt you for some time!

Honesty in a relationship should be the number one priority besides loyalty, telling your boyfriend that you cheated will not only show that you are honest it will also make you feel better, since it won’t be festering in your mind creating more lies, back stories and anxiety. Sit down with your boyfriend and have a one to one conversation about this, if you say it face to face he will appreciate your honesty more, if you are honest with him and yourself from the beginning there will less likely be tension or paranoia between you both within the relationship.

That is a tricky question. Honesty is the best policy in my opinion. It can be hard to be honest, especially telling your partner about another relationship you’ve had(even if it was a one night stand). If he loves you, the two of you can find a way to get past it. If he is upset you were honest, then it might be best, unfortunately, to move on. My best friend tried to get my now fiancé to cheat on me with her and it was really difficult, but we talked about it and i was able to forgive both of them, but she and I are no longer friends. Good luck!!

Your boyfriend should know that truth, that there has been a gap between your relationship, it is best so that way maybe in the future you two can have more trust, and he will trust you more if you tell him the truth about what is going on. If you cheated on him, it's is ok your are not the only person in the world but he has the right to know. Hope this helps.

Honesty and trust is an essential to any relationship. You might not be the best relationship partners but you might be more fit as friends. Plus, the longer you wait the longer you have to worry over your decision. You could tell him that you cheated, tell him why, and do it when you’re ready. Hopefully you guys can still be friends after everything or you can find a way to work it out. I wish you the best of luck and I hope everything goes well for you and your boyfriend. Just remember, telling him is your decision, nobody can tell you to.

You should tell your boyfriend you cheated, the longer you keep it a secret the harder it is going to be for you and him. Its not going to be easy but try to gently tell him. The sooner you tell him the better it will be for both of you as it wont cause that big of a drift if he find out much later from someone else than he will feel like you lied to him, instead tell him yourself and as soon as possible. Its going to be difficult but he has to know but do not let things get out of hand when you tell him.

I belive that you should always be honest in a relationship, no matter how bad the mistake was. I think that you should tell him that you cheated, with who, and why you did. He deserves to know why you weren't giving him your heart completely. Especially if you guys were dating a long time, then that's even more vital, because he shouldn't find out any other way than from you. It would create a lot more stress and pain if he found out from anyone else. Someone is bound to tell eventually anyways. The best way is to be honest and make no excuses.

Honesty for me is the best policy as cheesy as this sounds. I also do believe that cheating is nothing but a physical need that had to be fulfilled, just like cheating on a diet. However, in relationships, there's another party to consider, their feelings matter and their opinions do to, so it is always best to come out with the truth and explain the situation. If you feel like you are prone to (temptation) and are most likely to cheat in relationships it's best if you do have this conversation early in the relationship and discuss the possibility of having an agreement regarding that.
