I've been dating my boyfriend a little over a year. We had a wonderful loving relationship, but recently we've been growing apart, and have almost broken up because we feel like we don't connect enough. He thinks I don't care for him enough (sadly justified, I guess) and I think he doesn't like me how I am and is always trying to change me. We had an "almost break up" talk a few days ago, but decided to keep trying. He's so sweet and I couldn't break up with him and hurt him.
So, I become a total idiot, and hurt him even more by making out with my friend. I know this guy kinda likes me, but we just have fun talking and really connect. I guess that's what I'm missing with my boyfriend. I went over to talk to him yesterday, and we ended up snuggling on the couch watching movies, and then, though I resisted for a long time, making out. And, to further incriminate myself, I fell asleep and we spent the night in his bed before he drove me home early the next morning. We didn't have sex or anything though.
This guy friend of mine really likes me. He wants me to be with him, but understands if I go back to my boyfriend. I can't hurt either of them, but I know I just hurt both of them terribly. I didn't think I was like this.
At first I was going to just go back to my boyfriend and not tell him, because it would hurt him so much. But now I almost want to tell him. It's so mean not to. I can deal with it if he breaks up with me, but I can't deal with telling him and causing him pain. Really what do you think I should do? If I don't tell him, he'll still be happy and won't find out. I won't do anything like this again, but you don't have to believe me about that if you don't want to.
I liked the feeling of waking up next to the guy, and even kissing him, but every time I opened my eyes, I had this little feeling of disappointment that it wasn't my boyfriend there.
