Do I need to tell current partner that I used to sleep with one of my now friends?

[Anonymous]

I’ve been with my partner for 8 months now and it’s been playing on my mind a bit that we haven’t ever really spoken about past relationships. I’m aware he’s had a few and he’s aware of mine but we’ve never discussed people or anything.

The reason it’s been on my mind is because about 6 months before getting together, my best friend of around 5 years and I slept together a few times. I don’t have any feelings there and didn’t at time time, we had just flirted on and off a bit for a long while and it ended up happening. We are still really good friends now, and will sometimes hang out alone, but it would never happen again and I am incredibly happy in my relationship so would never jeopardise it.

However, is this something I need to bring up to current partner?

So here is the thing u don't "need" to tell him no but if it one day just comes out yes it will look like he hide it from u simply reverse the rolls if he had a female best friend that he had fucked before and years in u found out they have had sex in the past how would u feel

Yes. If you are still in contact, then the ethical thing to do would be to make that known.

You say that he will hate your best friend and not trust them and be wondering every time you are together you are fucking

I'm sure it'll go over well
