writes:I seriously need help, I need real advice. Well, I've been with My boyfriend for almost 5 months and right when We first started going out there was a guy I used to hang out with and he liked me. So of course he wanted to kiss me and he pretty much forced me and I kinda gave into it. The guilt builds and builds in Me. I just recently confessed to My Boyfriend what had happened, he forgave Me....but I didn't tell Him I gave in. Which eats at Me and I really don't want to lose Him because We know We are meant for Each Other and if I told Him then I would lose him and I can't because if I did then I wouldn't know what to do with My life. And I know it was a mistake because intentionally I did not want to but I still gave in. And I just can't tell him but if I don't it depresses Me and makes Me feel horrible. I have also turned to God for forgiveness of My sin. I may also need counseling? I just feel extremely guilty and I just wish I could tell Myself it was a mistake, learn from it, never do it again. I need real advice, please. Reply to this Question

Blonde curly hair, tall, tan, pretty blue eyes and a great smile. she was perfect for me and i loved her. Im 15 and i was in love. people thought we were meant to be and then one night at a party i got high and had sex with another girl. i felt like a complete piece of shit for doing that to the love of my life. i wanted to die for it. instead i decided whats best is to tell my gf what i did and how much i care about her. she understood. but then told me i have to understand that she cant see me anymore. we were supposed to break our virginity with each other. she really loved me but she cant stay with me and i understand. we got back together after i re asked her out in the process of crashing her (catholic)all girls school dance. yes, she was embarrassed, but i ran off the stage, grabbed er and just kissed her like there was no tmrw. i told her i loved her and she forgave me for doing another girl. i also had to tell her that the girl i had sex with was one of her closest friends. it was hard but guess what? i did it. and im still with her. shes beautiful. i think oyu and you bf will be fine if you are honest with him.

 It's so pointless to torment yourself. And lettting your man know will probably only do damage and hurt him unnecisarily. But you may have to come clean if your concience can't take it. (I don't, however, think this is a good idea- cheating happens in the heart and you weren't unfaithful because you don't love him, but because you were used/ tricked)
Don't let the devil steal your joy. If God has forgiven you thats it! You can't mess up so bad that He can't fix it. Don't put your sin above the Cross. You have to forgive yourself. 1Jn1:9
you said it yourself It was a mistake - learn from it, move on.
You're keeping this from your boyfriend nt because you want to deceive him, but because you want to protect him. you don't want to hurt or dissapoint him.

You've been obsessing over this for 5 months? Oy. You need to stop and let it go. It was just a kiss. It's not a big deal. You are tormenting yourself for what -- 5-10 seconds of bad judgement? Sweetheart... read some of these other posts. There are so many people who are doing things that really hurt other people. Those are the kinds of things worth feeling guilty about. THIS IS NOT one of those things. It was a one little kiss. SWAK. Done bye bye. It didn't hurt anyone - not even your boyfriend who you have already confessed to. But the really bad thing you ARE doing is being so mean and unkind and unforgiving of yourself over this minor scenario. You wouldn't pay $100 for a ten cent piece of gum. So why are you spending so much negative energy on a bubble gum issue? Find something else to focus on. Love is forgiveness so forgive yourself. Everyone else has.

 You really need to get over this, it was not a "sin" it was a kiss! you don't need counselling, you have shown remorse for what you have done, your boyfriend has forgiven you and I'm sure "God" has too as he's a forgiving kind of guy!
Get on with your life, enjoy your time with your boyfriend and have the moral courage not to do that kind of thing again.
