A female Canada age 36-40, *uperconfused88 writes:

I cheated on my boyfriend and decided to break up with him but I couldn't handle the thought of being without him so that very night I begged him to take me back and he did and I don't know if this was the right thing to do. I feel as though I don't deserve him back and we shouldn't be together. I love him but I am the one who screwed everything up. He deserves so much better. What do I do now? Please help!

A female reader, anonymous, writes (4 March 2009):

Why did you cheat on him in the first place and then decide to break up with him?

Must have been something going on in your relationship that wasn't satisfying you.

Anyway, if you REALLY feel he deserves much better, maybe you should tell him so, and tell him you're setting him free.

You really do seem very mixed up: you cheated on him and almost immediately decided you couldn't bear to be without him (why not? relationships fail and couples break up all the time. Unfortunate, yes, but its part of how life is).

For now, I'd say do nothing and give all this some serious thought. Then if you feel you must, you can tell him you don't think you deserve him, but that you want to try to do better. But be careful: he may well think you're so confused that you don't know what you want.
