Question
hi my boyfriend has been away with his family for the past three weeks. we've been hooking up on and off mostly on for the past 10 months and for the last two we have officially been together. well a week or so ago i was at a party and got very very very intoxicated i ended up stradling a random person and hooking up with him (just kissing no sex or anything else). and a few minutes into this i ended up throwing up on him and over his shoulder. i didnt remember any of it when i woke up and thought my friends were just messing with me. i feel terrible. my boyfriend has said that he would break up with me if i ever did cheat on him and i really do love him so i dont know if i should tell him or not.

Answer
Yikes! I think you have been through enough and there is no need to say anything. I do suggest you steer clear of drinking like that again or chances are it will happen again. Now because it was at a party, someone may end up telling him. If that happens don’t deny it. Be 100% honest and tell him everything you just told me.

Expertise

Is he/she cheating? The signs of a cheater are obvious if you know what to look for. If you think your mate is cheating ask me. I can also help you heal after being cheated on. If you are thinking about cheating but need help so you will NOT, I can try and help you. Please do NOT ask me how to cheat and get away with it. Cheating is hurtful and I do not condone it.

Experience

I have spent years studying relationships. I also have done some research on why people cheat and what to look for if you think they are.
