Honestly this sounds less like a “confession” situation and more like a clarity situation. Instead of dumping feelings, just create space for one-on-one time and see how he responds. If he’s intereste…
Youre likely overthinking it. Like be upfront if it comes up. But its not some brand on your face either. If you feel there's absolute need to share it, do so in a manner thats not like a confession o…
She cheated when we were engaged (once) then in December I found her Snapchat. Once I found this I threatened her with divorce. I’ve already filed and the past few weeks Ive gathered recordings, confe…
Yes, the polygraph parking lot confession is a thing.
Why would that change the situation you are in now? She didn't initially come forward voluntarily and would have likely never confessed on her own to what you already know. You will likely never get a…

Sorry you are going through this. The first thing you need to know is that voluntary confessions are extremely rare. It is more likely something happened to force it. Either the friend told her to t…

This guy is dangerously uninformed and falling into all of the the common traps. This feels like an “every accusation is a confession” scenario with the narcissism suggestion. I’d report him to a regu…
I did not regret it at all. I had the same worries as you, but in the end, I was at peace with myself and my decision. My father made his own bed and he had no one to blame but himself. I didn’t owe h…
Go see a Catholic priest and tell him what happened. Ask about an exorcism. Yes, I’m serious. If he doesn’t recommend confession and/or getting baptized try another Catholic Church.
Tell him this… he either tells the full truth or he’s going to lose any pension he gets from this job in divorce an you’ll be letting them know and publicly letting everyone in the city know including…
No excuse for the lying- that’s on him. I do wonder why the usage of porn warrants a confession.
My story isn’t the same as yours. 6 months ago I uncovered cheating 18 years ago. To me, it’s a fresh wound. As a result, I went into hyper detective mode and found a whole lot more, the latest of whi…
You have learned, in very painful fashion, a lesson your generation is skipping for some unknown reason. Your relationship is not your confessional booth. Not every thought that breezes through you…
You basically told the guy that you miss the perks of not having to consider him in your life, and then you’re shocked he walked away. What exactly did you expect him to hear? You framed it nicely, bu…
I’ve been wondering the same thing. Trying to move on from a being the guy that was basically the safe space for a woman in a 3 year abusive engagement. She confided many deep things in me late at n…
Check his phone. His accusations sound more like a confession.
I’m racking my brain as to why she married you?! And , now that you have this confession, why would you stay married to her? I’m sure it’s not going to be easy going forward, but I can this eating …
Gonna meet with an attorney tomorrow. I already told that dork’s wife and provided confession from my wife to validate his part in this mess. She was in disbelief also. She stopped messaging back that…
The same day I caught them, I had contacted her and provided her with a confession of my wife admitting to the affair with him. She was in disbelief also. I hope she’s okay.
Unfortunately I had confronted her when I saw our car in the hotel parking lot after she had said she was going to run “errands”. I waited until she came outside and that’s when I confronted her. He l…
First, I feel bad reading your post. To actually catch them at a hotel then listening to a confession from her. It had to be tough. She lost feelings for you because she had someone else. This is a te…
You’re in trouble. The best friend got your confession and then took a side against you. I don’t know her side so I’ll accept your version of events. Do not speak about this again to anyone and don’t …
Agree I don't have a blanket "men and women can't be friends " philosophy.. but he explicitly said that men only stay friends with former lovers to keep the door open. That was a confession, and I'd c…

What about an avoidant woman that wasn’t even your ex? She was engaged in an abusive relationship and leaned on me a lot, I was like a deep emotional safe space for her for the last year, among physi…
Yes, and they also completely changed their personality to be more similar to AP even after the affair. My guess, after talking with a lot of people who have survived infidelity, is that people who …
You may not want to hear this but consider yourself lucky. It’s been a little over a decade when my antennas went up and I asked questions. I’m still waiting on the breakdown confession. I have a feel…
I walked away when mine cheated repeatedly. The first two months he tried to ask for me back but didn’t offer solutions. I didn’t respond much as the apologies still didn’t mention the cheating. I on…
The reaction of the friends show how this was not a joke, and clearly not taken by them as a joke. No lie, I'd be done with this marriage if I was you, because this is unacceptable, and his behaviour…
Your brother ? His accusations are his confessions
Yes! Neither of my parents should ever have had a child. My father was an alcoholic and a hobosexual decades before the word existed. He always treated me like I was an unwanted sibling rather than h…
In a word, yes. You did the right thing. He sounds like an immature, controlling asshole. If he's doing this now on a smaller scale, how do you think it's going to be once the relationship has gone to…
Friend, You have a few choices… 1. You can “rug sweep” and pretend nothing is happening “for the children “. This will destroy you. 2. You can attempt reconciliation. The chances of success are low…
28 years later ea first found out about 9 years later it was physical (probably way more than I’ve been told). I handled everything wrong. It may be over the top, but you could grab her phone and text…
you're absolutely right, ive needed therapy since i was like 5😂 i dont think it'd ever change what i said though. we truly loved each other, in a way most people never find or only find once in their…
I wonder how he would react, and how much she would still believe him if you told them that you were pregnant, and since you have never been with anyone else, it has to be his. I would feel no guilt a…
Nothing's wrong with approaching your SP saying those things. In fact if you are confident, secure that kind of person you would even do that and get the outcome you want. The thing is most people ha…
Some tough love incoming. He sees you as a vulnerable child and proceeded with the relationship because he got horny and every professional and moral obstacle went out of the window. He took advantag…
