We have been together for a couple of months, and due to current circumstances I am living with my ex, which I am trying to change.I have cheated in the past, which I am not proud of, but this time is different. I love my girlfriend very much, and the guilt is killing me! I dont know what came over me to do something so stupid, I know that I dont deserve to be with her, but I cant bare to lose her. In a perfect world, yeah I'd just come out with it, tell her and all will be fine. But I cant tell her cause Im pretty sure that would mean the end of us. I wish I could take it back, and Iam trying to just forget bout it and pretend it didnt happen. Anyone whos has been in a simular situation or has some advice please write!Tahnk you

 Do not tell her.
The fact you cheated on her with your ex, is a hundred times worse.
She will not forgive you.

And Ariel's wise words and I cite " You say you love your girlfriend, but your actions are saying a completly different thing" . What wonderfully wise Aunts/Uncles you both are!
Male reader, I seriously believe that when one person truely and wholly loves another, they could never, ever fathom cheating on their loved one. The idea of causing so much potential, possible pain, heartbreak and devastation to a loved one's life, should be unthinkable. So if I were you, I would be questioning your true devotion and love to your gf. This clearly was not love. This was a self-centered ego trip on your part, and you never even considered her in this equation. I think you need to come clean and tell your gf. Give her the inalienable right and fair choice to decide whether she wants to continue in this relationship with you. That is the very most respectable thing you can do for her, right now. Many women wouldn't tolerate this betrayal..some would. She might dump you, one doesn't know. But if you two hash this out, discuss it-be prepared to put your feelings aside and really silt quietly and listen to what she says to you. If she decides to carry on with you..accept that your actions/ behaviours will be scrutinized-she will not trust you until you earn it back. This will be a long process. But if you are still motivated to make this work, then you will need to forgive yourself and she will need to find forgiveness for you, as well. It really will take a committed effort from both of you. Time will tell how this plays out. But let's get this striaght, as far as love goes-this was and is an intense 'immature infatuation' with her. Please don't tell me 'you love her', after cheating with another woman. Sorry, hun... that type of rationale just doesn't wash with me. Take care dear and I wish you both good luck.

I have the choice of my ex if I really wanted her, and I have offers from other women, this is how I know I have the right one, I choose her other anything and anyone else. I love her to bits.
My thoughts before I slept with my ex?? It was late and she woke me when she came in (as I sleep downstairs), we were sat talking for a while, and then before I knew it I we were at it. I wasnt thinking at all, wish I was thinking.

 I feel you are really undecided on who you want. I think you are probably very attracted to both girls, but not in love with any.
You should be honest with your girlfriend and move out of your exes, because there is no way your girlfriend will stay with you if you still live with the ex.
What were your thoughts before you slept with the ex?

Me and my ex we have lived together for years, we split a while ago, but still lived with each other just because it was easier. I am soon moving but havnt because of the need to save money to start in a new place.
No I didnt cheat on my ex with my current girlfriend, been years since I've done anything like this. Being asked by women all the time to sleep with them kinda plays on temptation, but i managed to avoid doing anything bad. I guess my ex just had a lil advantage cuz she knows what I like.
I know this is no excuse and I just want to go back and stop myself, but its too late. This totally isnt me, and dont feel like myself for doing it.
