I'm confused, you said nothing happened and you ran away, so why has your boyfriend left you if nothing happened?
If nothing really happened, you will get over it. He sounds a bit fragile don't you think?

If you chose to sleep with his friend at the time, then I think he's got every right to feel the way he does.
As for keeping it a secret, that works to get rid of the immediate pain of a problem but not to heal it. It only grows worse over time. It's the way to end up in a friendly but distant relationship that's not really intimate anymore. (Which often leads to even more cheating.)

I say good riddance. You don't want to spend the rest of your life wondering when he's going to lose it and kick you out again. A life lived in fear ... and all that.
Anyway - believe him when he says it's over and pat yourself on the back for finding out about him before it's too late.

He really did not have to know, this was only you trying to unload your guilt onto someone who cared for you. He will not believe you that nothing really happened, even if you try as he will be thinking as I do that you must have done something wrong to feel the need to 'come clean'.
The damage is done so...how to get him back?....Your best course of action now is to write to him, point out how long you have been together, that you love only him, that his friend was the one that approached you and lie, say he came on strong, you were both drunk and that you trusted this other guy as he was his friend, that you never saw it coming. Lie again and say that you only told him because you had a fear that this other guy would at some point have pretended more happened and that it really was nothing and he means too much to you than to have kept it from him. Go to his home without calling to see him as if you cal he will only ignore the phone. If he sees you he is less likely to shout at you and he cannot hang the phone up on you in person. Good luck though..............Time is a great healer...that may be all he needs after a good calm down!

You should try talking to him,begging i mean and explaining that you actually told him,that should count for something!!! And IF you do not get back together,then take it as a sign that there is someone better for you out there,ok? Gods grace
