Cover and lie to make things better but it doesn’t work
For years I have been my family’s protector. I am the oldest of three. My parents were substance abusers. I had to take care of my siblings at an early age. I HAD to lie to the police and to child welfare to keep my siblings in the home. Speed up years later and my siblings are abusers as well. I ah to lien to the police to keep them out of jail. During that time my mom got married to a physical abuser so guess what... I HAD to lie to the police AGAIN to say that we were ok. That my siblings and I were just being to rough with each other..."you know...boys will be boys" I had to lie to the neighbors, to school officials, doctors and family members all for the sake of my family. Eventually I moved out and had a family of my own. However, my wife decided that I was not paying attention to her and she had an affair and got pregnant. Now I didn’t want my kids having to deal with her infidelity so I... one more time HAD to lie to everyone that our marriage was perfect and the kids saw happiness.
I did tell one person and the look of disgust and hearing the "you should have... I would have... why are you still..." that was all negative to me. We have since divorced...but hey wait there’s more. I eventually divorced and moved away and "found" me. I started dating a guy that is the most beautiful guy anybody could ask for. He only cared about me... not what I did for a living where I lived or what I drove just me. And to be open and honest. I could never tell him about me because it would reveal my family and I am embarrassed... disappointed... ashamed. I felt that he wouldn’t understand. He didn’t catch me in a lie and he doesn’t want to be with me anymore. I recently stopped smoking. He was coming over to have dinner. I left my place to go to the nearest smoke shop to get incense because my place smelled like cigarette smoke. I lied to him saying I was outside instead of saying I was going to the shop. I didn’t want to see the look on his face or hear that he was upset. For the first time in my life I had someone proud of me for something that I achieved something and I didn’t want to make him feel like I was a failure.
Messages boards are rough on Truth About Deception
I was a member of this board years ago trying to work on my marriage. I invited my wife here to discuss our issues and see where we needed work. Dan Kwan and sunny often gave advice usually ending up with me needing work as I knew I needed. I was discarded from this forum because I cleared my browser history of porn; my wife had garnered them onto her side because of how I was acting. Trying desperately to fight for my name. I just wanted to let you two know, she is a covert narcissist and I have been isolated from friends, family and I only recognized it when she started abusing my brother. Thanks for being flying monkeys, I told you it wasn’t like it seemed.
Cheating on my girlfriend helped me realize how much I love her
Two months ago I cheated on my partner. We had a very difficult year in our relationship that had me considering on several occasions whether I ought to break up with her or not. Then I went away for three weeks and after a string if bad decisions I ended up with another girl. I regretted it instantly and hated myself for it. It did make me realize how much I loved my gf and how my life would be shattered without her. When I met up with her I could tell that our entire dynamic had changed. I was much more positive about our relationship and was willing to do anything to make it work. After a very stressful period of work in which I had a series of panic attacks and breakdowns, I find myself struck with a horrible sensation of guilt that I have done something to hurt her. We had one little argument and seeing her upset ripped my heart out. I am now shaken with incredible anxiety and fear about having cheated on her that one time and how much that would be painful to her.

Guilty about cheating on my girlfriend
A few days ago, I was intoxicated pretty heavily and ended up having sex for a brief moment with another girl. Now it’s slowly eating away at me. Tearing down everything I had I built for myself with the girl I’m in love with. And that may seem really contradictory but I am in love with her. And I know it. I’ve only been with 2 girls, the 3rd being the mistake. And it only made me realize that my curiosity to "try out new things" was completely misplaced. I love the girl I am with and want to spend the rest of my life with her. And I know for a fact this will never happen again. But the guilt is really weighing on me and I don’t know what to do. I get so anxious when she’s not 100% feeling good like she’s found out and she’s just waiting to tell me and it is really taking a toll on me.
