I am currently in a relationship with a man who I like greatly.However on a recent night out with work, I got really close with my best friend from work and ended up kissing him. Although I did not plan this, we were both sober and I have been secretly lusting after him for a year. I don't know if to leave my boyfriend and make him unhappy and go after my best friend. Or to stay in the relationship and be unhappy myself.

Ask oldersister agony auntIf you are really just staying with this guy so you don't hurt his feelings by leaving him, why in the world would you tell him you cheated? So you can end it once and for all? I would take a serious look at your relationship and if you really want to stay with your boyfriend, I would tell him there are problems in the relationship that you both need to work on because you kissed someone else.

If you don't want to stay with him, don't tell him and end it amicably.

Sophia_Sweetheart agony auntSweetie you need to get your boyfriends opinion on this whole thing. If you're unhappy in the relationship, then regardless of whether you kissed your best friend or not, you shouldn't be together. Yet, if you were happy in the first place with your boyfriend, then I'm sure you guys can work it out. However, whatever you do, your boyfriend deserves to know what happens!

But remember, if you're just going to be unhappy and be secretly wanting your best friend, honesty is the best policy, and this way you won't be cheating on your boyfriend in your mind. Good luck honey, let us know what happens =]

Amsieee(: agony auntmake sure your bestfriend meant it more than a casual kiss! you dont want to throw it all away for nothing!!! think about what you really want you dont want to do anything thing you are going to regret in the long run, only you know whats the best thing to do, however you have kinda cheated on your boyfriend...if it was casual less cause of alarm on his behalf but if it meant more i think he has a right to know... xx
