Cheated on uncaring boyfriend

My boyfriend and I have been together for eight months. I really love him but I don't think he cares as much for me as I do for him.

My boyfriend and I have been together for eight months. I really love him but I don't think he cares as much for me as I do for him.

I often think that he is still in love with his ex-girlfriend. I always seem to be the last in his life. His friends and family always come first.

I went to a party on my own and met a nice guy. I had a bit too much to drink and ended up having sex with him.

He has been phoning me ever since and wants to see me again. I feel very guilty about it and don't know if I should tell my boyfriend. I don't want to lose him.

I think you should be honest with yourself. Your boyfriend is obviously not giving you what you need in your relationship.

Why would you want to continue being with him? If you think confessing your cheating to your boyfriend will wake him up, make him jealous and perhaps persuade him to love you then you are wrong.

If he feels so little for you he will probably just dump you. The only person you are hurting with this sort of behaviour is yourself.

Perhaps you don't realise that you are worth more than what your boyfriend can offer you or a one-night stand.

Give yourself a chance to get your life on track and find out what you need to make you happy.
