The thing is i get the odd wave of horrible guilt when something reminds me of it. Its like i can never keep things to myself. Does anyone think i should wait and then tell him and say it happened ages ago or should i move on.
there was a foursome that went on when we were all drunk. my boyfriend had , had sex with his mates gf and i was meant to have sex with her boyfriend but it didnt happen. I just couldnt bring myself to do it. And ever since then id been doing stupid things like i mentioned in my last thread.
I really hope this goes out of my head because deep down i know its something i should keep to myself. Afterall i know in myself it wont ever happen again. and i literally showed myself for a few seconds and though no this is wrong. The boy also manipulated me into doing it sayin if you dont do it im going to tell your boyfriend and email him that you did it anyway.
whats your take on the situation now folks ?

No. At this point it will do nothing but hurt both of you. The only reason you want to confess is to clear your conscience. Telling him is a selfish move on your part. What will it do for him? Break his heart. What will not telling him do? Nothing. So long as you'll never do it again, you need to keep it to yourself.

No I don't think you should ''confess''.
What you did has in fact nothing to do with your BF. You did not cheat on him or stab his back in any other way.
It was something that has only got to do with you and your privacy. Of course it was quite a poor way to solve a problem but that is a horse of a different colour.
If I was you I would forget about this incident and rather put all my energy into working things out with him. I am sure you can find better ways to deal with problems in the future.
Talk to him. Talk about what the problem is and how to solve it. Find ways to change your situation. Instead of dwelling on your own anger and hurt feeling and let that make you do stupid things, give both of you a chance to fix it.
Communication is the only way to make a relationship work.
wish you all the best

He doesn't need to know. However if he asks then I wouldn't lie. You say you've learned your lesson, but you need to make sure you never turn to another guy when you're having problems with your boyfriend, because in those moments anything can happen.

How on earth did you get yourself into this, exposing yourself, when you made it plain that nothing was going to happen. Be very firm with yourself in future.It sounds as if you can be manipulated into doing things against your better judgement. So be wary.

For me, this "showed parts of my body" would not be a big deal; I think I would mainly laugh at it. If your boyfriend gets mad of it - as a girl - I would not cling on him too much, this is sure.

If you know for certain that it will never happen again and are truly sorry then just try and forget it and move on.I don't think telling your boyfriend will do any good and you say you've learnt your lesson so i would just leave it at that.
Never, ever do anything like that on a webcam. Whether it be your boyfriend or someone else because those things can end up on the internet and i'm sure you don't want to see yourself on some porn site.

Best of wishes!
