Guys very rarely forgive cheating, so before talking about this, you should think carefully. If there is no strength to hide the act, in the conversation it is imperative to indicate the reason for the current situation and emphasize that you do not rush the young man to make a decision.
Instructions
Step 1
Before talking to a guy about cheating, try to understand yourself and answer the questions why this happened, what factors influenced the current situation, and whether the current relationship is of value. If the betrayal consists in a sudden uncontrollable outburst of passion that has no continuation, it is better to remain silent, do not make your loved one suffer in vain. Lying in the name of saving a relationship can be justified, but in very rare cases.
Step 2
If the decision to tell about the betrayal is made finally and irrevocably, approach this issue tactfully. Start the conversation with the reason that prompted the sinful thought - it can be lack of attention, lack of understanding, revenge, etc. Then smoothly go to the heart of the problem, just do not go into details, so as not to injure a loved one.
Step 3
Further, it all depends on your perception of the situation: if you regret what happened, ask for forgiveness, promise to continue to think carefully about your actions, otherwise, thank you for the time spent together, and tactfully explain that you do not intend to continue the relationship further.
Step 4
To stay close to your boyfriend, be sure to say at the end of the conversation that you don't rush him into making a decision. Be prepared for the fact that your loved one will not be able to immediately forgive the betrayal, it may take weeks, months or even years. Accept that you will have to be friends for a while or not communicate at all, while the young man gathers his thoughts and decides whether he is ready to continue the connection.
Step 5
If you don't have the courage to talk about cheating one-on-one, you can put your thoughts on a piece of paper or send an e-mail. In this case, start the letter with why you were unable to confess by looking into his eyes, otherwise the guy will have the wrong opinion that he is being ignored and not respected.
