Should/Could/Would you come clean if you had 'cheated' on your partner?

Question

Why? Why not?

Thanks for your answers.

Answer 1

By unburdening your guilt on someone else, will surely end in disaster. Ask yourself this would you be singing and dancing about the fact that it had happened to you, I think not. Best to learn from this as in the end you will be the looser.

Answer 2

I have never cheated on my wife because I think it's a respect thing.  If I did cheat then obviously I'm not happy at home so it is best to end it there and then and move on

Answer 3

i have never done this. BUT i would say that if i had done it and it meant 'nothing' and i regretted it truly and honestly and there was no plausable liekly way my partner would find out, i woudlnt tell them, not for my own sake but for theirs. Sometimes people dont need to be hurt, and there is no need to stir up trouble. The only benefit would be to myself as it would be off my concience and that is a selfish reason to hurt somebody (i told them the truth and i felt better) i dont have the right to make myself felel better by hurting them- i need to ekep quiet, learn from it and deal with it.

Answer 4

It depends how serious the relationship is, if you are planning on dumping her soon then whats the need? you will just end up being the dumpiee!! but if you think it's going some were, come clean!!!

Answer 5

Yes, you should come clean if you cheated. The lies catch up with you, and if your partner finds out, it will be even worse. If you truly respect or once loved your partner it's always best to tell them so they can move on, if need be.  

Answer 6

What are you, Nuts? If you can tell me one good thing that could come out of it then tell me. She/He would never trust you again for a start..........We all have a bit on the side from time to time both men and women It's what makes the world go round but we don't go running of at the mouth about it. Married women are best for me because they keep their mouths closed about it.

Answer 7

Of course. But to be truthful, I'd end the relationship well before it went that far.

Answer 8

fine more answer at the similar question I asked!!  

Answer 9

i wouldnt cheat, if i really felt the need to be with another person i would break up with my current partner first

Answer 10

I've never cheated on any of my past partners, or my current partner, but I think someone should come lean if they do, they're possibly exposing their partner to disease if they don't come clean.

Answer 11

firstly i would never do that theres no point if ya aint happy end it plain as,but for advice its better to come clean cause if you do love them then they are more likely to forgive if your truthful then if later on they find out  

Answer 12

If I had a partner, I would not cheat on her.  If I had cheated, why would I upset her by saying so, if she was in the dark over it?  Sounds a great way to end a relationship over an ultimately meaningless f***.
