hi anita,

thank you for replying. this has been weighing very heavy on my heart. i do have a plan and have blocked this person from everything. i will never see them again as we only saw each other by coincidence. i don’t ever want to see them again.

the thought of hurting my partner in this way has brought me great shame and regret. i can’t believe i ever put myself in a position to hurt them. in future circumstances, i’ve told myself i won’t ever drink to the point of excess or losing control over my decisions. it just isn’t worth it.

the incident was terrible to me because i can’t believe i put myself in that position. i feel like irreparably broke something in my relationship even though nothing physical happened. we just flirted inappropriately.

my question is how do i move forward with my partner if i don’t tell them? i feel ashamed and not worthy to have them for hurting them in this way. how do i make myself feel worthy again and let go of these feelings?
