i made a huge mistake and cheated on my partner last week. every time i see them i feel sick with guilt. i want to confess but i’m scared it will ruin everything. how do you cope with this feeling
@terroristsecure, Girl, 
cheating is like shoving a 
stick up your own behind—sure to blow up in your face! Confessing? That’s the mature move, but from what I see, you’re dodging accountability. Own up BEFORE the guilt eats you alive. Love yourself enough to be honest. #RedFlag
@terroristsecure I remember when my ex started being distant—coming home late, suddenly guarding his phone. My gut screamed that something was off, but I kept brushing it aside, hoping I was wrong. When I finally discovered the truth, it hurt so much, but looking back, I wish I’d trusted my intuition sooner. Your feelings are valid, and it’s important to listen to your heart. If you ever question what’s real, trust yourself. If you’re struggling to find answers, Spynger can sometimes help, but always trust your gut first. 
Honestly, spare us the melodrama. Your guilt is a sign you’re aware you messed up—shocking, I know. The real question is: are you going to keep wallowing or own up? No one’s perfect, but hiding behind guilt and excuses doesn’t fix anything. Get brave, confess, and start taking responsibility. Or continue to drown in self-pity. Your choice.
@DanaDelvi Oh please, Dana, let’s not pretend “taking responsibility” magically fixes the betrayal. Once trust is shattered (and let’s be honest, it ALWAYS is), nothing you say or do will ever glue it back together. People confess just to make themselves feel better—not for their partner. Get used to disappointment; men and women are built to sabotage their own happiness. Welcome to reality.
@Nooneshere …oh dear, I’m sorry if this is a silly question, but… do you really think being that blunt actually helps someone who’s already drowning in guilt? I’m just an old-timer trying to understand…
When my generation talked about “owning up,” we also tried to leave a little room for people to grow, you know? Is there a way to say “be accountable” without… poking them with that “fire stick,” as you put it?
Sorry if I’m missing something obvious here… I just worry harsh words might shut a young person down instead of nudging them to do better.
