I just wondered how other people feel when admitting they've cheated in the past.
For context the guy I've been seeing for over a year asked me if I've ever cheated, as it was a question asked during a TV show. So I answered yes, I told him I kissed a guy when I wasblackout drunk, when I was 18. I was honest about this. I also told my partner at the time and we worked through it.
I'm 29 now and have had 3 long term serious relationships whereby there was no repeat of this.
I would never do it again as I've actually been cheated on myself.
Anyway, after he asked we just went back to normal talking and socialising about other things.
I feel extremely uncomfortable about how easy it is for him to not resolve or close the convo.
I'm an anxiously attached person. I've made many mistakes in my life but I own them and don't shy away from being open about them.
I at least wanted him to say he appreciates my honestly and that it doesn't change anything between us.
Now I keep thinking that he doesn't want me.
If it changes things, then I'd rather just know now then beat myself up about it.
He also hasn't resolved conflict when we had a disagreement an he compared me to his ex.
Instead he wanted me to act normal for the rest of the holiday when I was upset to the point of feeling sick. All I ever want is for him to discuss things an air the issue so we can move past it or just decide to not be together.
I don't know how to communicate this to him, as I feel I have in the past and he has just doesn't change.
I just want to be with a guy who comforts me after a disagreement and just resolves it. He us very stubborn an has an ego.

I am sorry to hear all this - there are many good books on resolving conflicts for married couples and although you two are not married you are in a long-term relationship. I think you two could greatly benefit from them
Wait what are u asking here he asked u somthing u answered and nothing happened but u wanted him to comfort you on the answer u gave and because he didn't u are overthinking
I just wanted him not to class me as a bad person or judge me for the mistake.
He is a very judgmental guy often compares me to his ex and makes comments towards me that shows he is judgmental. Therefore after sharing this, I expected him to be mature enough to understand how it happened an just get past it. It was years ago. But instead it was just silent
No he simply didn't comment on it and now u are taking that as him thinking you are shit u don't even know what he is thinking but are acting as if he judged u also for someone that is with him it does seem like u are clearly not happy so why are u with him
