I have recently cheated on my husband and confessed. I quit seeing the other man and will have NO CONTACT with him. My husband thinks it would be a good idea to tell people of my infidelity, such as his family and my family. I think it is humiliating enough that I did this and now the thought of telling other people is just simply mortifying. can someone please help. any suggestiong greatly appreciated
luv

hi, in the case of my WHs A, i have told friends and family only. this was for my own support. I had to talk to those closely about the devastation i was feeling, i also needed practical help as i had just had twins, and struggle to cope. There is a risk in telling people, that they may bear grudges, interfere etc, which may make future relations tense. If you both want to repair the marriage, you should decide who to tell carefully. good luck.

Hi,
Infidelity is always a tough thing to deal with. However I think that you need to think twice about telling everyone your business. It will affect the way people look at you no matter what the reason for the infidelity. Personally I feel that it is between you and your husband, you confessed to him so why should you have to tell everyone. Focus on your relationship, not worrying or dealing with the fall out of having to deal with everyone you tells opinion.
If you want more advice just email me!!!Littleg
