A male United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hey,

I am just really worried at the moment as I am at Uni and we went to an after party at my friends and it got really late so i fell asleep on the sofa and their living room is really cold and my two friends (girls) offered to sleep with them just same bed nothing else of course! i was sleeping with clothes and so were they.

I just feel really bad cos I did not want to tell my girlfriend because it will just worry her and I did not do anything so thought it was unnecessary.

This again happened like they had another after party and I was smashed and my friend put me in their bed and she slept there too but we weren't touching or close we were completely different sides (pretty big bed).

There 100% isn't anything happening because I don't think anything just friends and its the exact same thing with that girl - we're just friends lol.

But my girlfriend is a bit worried if i like her because when she came up to my uni i was very drunk and said to her about 3 times that i thought my friend was cute. I did not mean it in that way i just said it as the normal meaning cute. My friend is not my type and i love my girlfriend so much and it hurts me I have made her feel upset.

Now i just have this guilt that I did not tell her about this incidence and i just feel really down.

My girlfriend was talking about it the other day how shes got over the fact i called my friend cute but then she started saying she wasn't sure if we were sleeping together in the same bed or not (when i stayed over cos i had told her) and i did not really say anything to that.

What should i do? Should i just tell her in person? or leave it? i am just worried some how she'd find out.

Its just one of those things that look worse than it really is. I am not the kind of girl that will cheat on her.

Thanks for your help

I am not sure if my last message sent cos it hasn't popped up but I'd like to thank for your answers at the end of the day I should be honest in a relationship. My relationship is very open and healthy and we are do happy together. But I'm going to tell her when she comes up in the almost 2 weeks.

I love her so much and I'm gonna have the room all done for her anyway with some romantic things anyway (late valentines day!). I hope she'll appreciate me being honest and I'm so scared about this. I haven't done anything at the end of the day so I shouldn't really worry.

Thank you all and take care x

Thank you all for replying back but I will tell her it is best being honest cos that builds the relationship stronger rather than leaving it. I could just leave it but I'm just gonna worry whether she'd find out or not. At the end of the day I know I haven't done anything and she's gonna have to trust me or not. I will be scared saying this but hopefully it will be okay.

Take care

Yeah I wanted to tell her but I'm at Uni at the moment and won't see her for another few weeks when she comes at march and I can't tell her then it's only one day and she'll be so upset especially as we won't be seeing each other for like 5 weeks it's not fair.

I can't text her it cos that's just awful

So I'm thinking telling her during half term? :/

llifton agony auntWell maybe you just shouldn't tell her then and then make SURE she never finds out and certainly learn from your mistakes and not do it again. As you said - it wasn't malicious.

llifton agony auntI don't think your actions are malicious or intended to be hurtful. I'm sure you're a nice guy. Please don't get me wrong. However, you posted a scenario in which you depicted yourself as drunk quite frequently (if you go back and reread it you will see that), and then asked for opinions. Which is what was given.Thing is, it seems like you already knew what your opinion was and what you were going to do about handling it from the get go - not tell her. And It seems you just wanted to hear other people support that decision and tell you that you did nothing wrong so you don't feel as guilty about it. But I'm just being legitimately honest with you. I can't just side with you and give you what you want to hear to ease your mind because it's just not how I feel. This is my sincere answer because I've learned from experiences in the past where I've done the same thing as you and been caught. I got called out in front of my current gf in college about how I had gotten drunk and slept in the same bed as some other girl my gf didn't trust. This was done by an angry friend in a drunken state. My gf dumped me for lying because she had asked me directly in the past and I lied to her face and said no, I hadn't slept in the same bed as her. She was extremely hurt. So my policy now is complete and total honesty. And that before I do anything, I ask myself if whoever I'm with would be okay with it, or would i not want them to know about it? And depending on my answer, that's how I go about handling a situation. Because it doesn't feel good to regret your decisions or feel bad about them. And it doesn't feel good to keep secrets - as you now know. I'm certainly not judging you. Just giving you what you came here for. Honest feedback. Good luck.

So_Very_Confused agony auntWe define cheating as anything you can't won't or don't tell your partner. By not telling her you are cheating her out of the truth and her chance to make the choice to trust you or not.

I trust my husband but I'd not be happy if he was sleeping in bed with another woman... He has been known to cuddle in his sleep.... many do... we instinctively will seek warmth and cuddle... even if we "don't mean it"

No I am faithful to her. You are all making it seem like I do this all the time. I went out last night and didn't go back to there's I go out quite a bit and this has never occurred before.

And of course I am 'really' ready for I love her to bits. I don't flirt with other girls or anything. Yes I wouldn't like it if she was in the same situation but I'd rather not know if they didn't do anything I dno.

I love bein with her and she is all I want, just cos I was in the same bed with anther girl doesn't mean I have feelings do this girl cos I clearly and really don't she's just a friend. But anyway this will never happen again because I feel sick and dirty

A female reader, llifton United States +, writes (19 February 2013):

llifton agony auntwhat you need to do is stop putting yourself in that type of situation. if you have a girlfriend, there are certain things that aren't acceptable. getting hammered all the time and passing out in girls beds is definitely NOT on the acceptable list of things to do. how would you feel if she got drunk and passed out in some dude's bed? and especially if she called him "cute." put the shoe on the other foot.

i think you need to decide if a relationship is something you're really ready for. because sure, one can still have a good time and party while having a girlfriend. but one also needs to be respectful of their girlfriend. so if you can't do both at the same time, you need to be single.

and yes, i think you should tell her. but i'm all for 100% honesty.

well thanks you just made me feel worse lol

you make it sound like i am going to cheat on her, but i know i wouldn't cos i don't have that motive.

If i tell her shes gonna feel worse and get more upset and lose some trust in me. I don't want to obviously lose her and at the end of the day i have not done anything wrong or cheated on her.

IHateWomanBeaters agony auntVisit your girlfriend and tell her that you wanted to say it in person.

"I love you and am wholly committed to you", if that is how you feel.

Then kiss her proper ;)

As for you being in university, I don't know. If it is just platonic non-sexual feelings thats all it is.
