And so you slept with his best friend. It sounds to me like you are young and still exploring the world. You're not ready for a commitment to your "boyfriend." You're playing the field and you know what? -- that's OK. But your boyfriend is simply that -- a boyfriend. He's not your soulmate. Don't tell him. Just realize that, yes, you have jeopardized this current relationship. Maybe it's not the right one for you. Keep your eyes open, girlfriend, and look around.

i agree with danielpew completely, you and his so called friend have conspired to betray him twice. hes lost a gf and a 'friend' in all this. the least you owe him is the respect to be honest

If you actually cared for him or loved him at all then you wouldn't have done this. This is a huge deal, you have to tell him!! He deserves to know. If he finds out later on down the road from somebody else, it wil be HELL!! To keep this secret would be disgusting!

Tell him and get both relationships over with so chaos can ensue. You and your current boyfriend don't belong together. Life goes on.

Maybe you like your boyfriend, but you certainly don't love him. Maybe your boyfriend thinks he has a friend, but he certainly doesn't. The man was betrayed twice, by his love and his friend. Is it only now that you and the "friend" understand it so? I don't think this will be easy on him.I don't know if you should tell your boyfriend about sleeping with his "friend". What do you expect from telling him? Forgiveness? I do think you should let the man go.

On one hand, you tell him and he has a chance of forgiving you, or on the other, you say nothing and he WILL leave you.Just be honest and admit your mistake and promise him that you will never do something like that again.Otherwise, he'll find out from somebody who will make YOU seem like a wh*re. Which certainly isn't true if you feel guilty about it.
