Do You Believe Honesty Is the Best Policy?

Hi DannyRawr, You feel guilty about what you did and so I suspect you learned your lesson and probably won't be committing this crime again. right? It sounds as if you really care about this girl. I'm big on honesty but I think that sometimes it might be better to just keep quiet. If it was only a one time thing then all I see happening by telling her is hurting her and trashing the relationship. If you are sure that she won't hear from someone else then just keep it on the DL and don't do it again. ok?

In many instances, honesty is good but in many more, it is the furthest from the good thing. Some times, there will have to be information that will need to be omitted for the best. In these cases, just use your best judgment. Whatever happens, happens, as honesty can hurt but guilt eating you up inside might hurt just as much if not more.

Absolutely do not tell her. this will kill your relationship and will not help your feelings of guilt. Hopefully you learned from it. If you do ever do it again, then break up with her.

In my point of view honest is the best policy. Its better to say the truth instead of cheating your girl friend. You know that you made mistake so better don't do mistake again by hiding. She would like you when you say the truth and she starts to trust later on. But if you hide this and one day if she knows her self about this than your in danger. This is in my point of view buddy. Take decisions as your heart say.

you're a jerk. i hope you get caught =)

I don't believe honesty is always the best policy, sometimes in life there are things that you really cant be honest with, it will only lead you to more suffering and pain when you tell the truth so better yet don't be honest always. The only time you can be honest is when the situation is not that threatening to you or just minor to you but when it is threatening like example you've cheated on your girlfriend better yet to keep your mouth shut and never mention to is to anyone else. hehe

Ouch...I can't totally compare but I'll say this: my husband cheated on me (once) and she wound up pregnant. We had two kids-one only a baby. And when I found out (which I eventually did) I felt totally betrayed! It was over because I had lost my complete trust in him-even though it was only one time-that was enough for me. I'm not sure what you should do here-if you tell her-she might leave you-if you don't tell her she still might leave you. My sympathies-This is a hard position to be in!
