All I'll say is, for the love of whatever gods you believe in, don't cheat. Communication is the key.
@Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone I have no intentions of cheating. I just don't know how to explain to him how I feel and how much it means to me or to reassure him that I'm not cheating and that I still love him just as much
If you’ve been in a monogamous relationship and he doesn’t agree to you seeing others then what you’re talking about is cheating and is not ethical.
@Cypher@lemmy.world
The thing is that I haven't done anything. I haven't acted on anything and I'm not gonna be like my dad who cheated on my mom. I'm trying to figure out how to explain things to him in a way he could understand. To help him see my point of view. I'm not trying to hurt him and I'm not trying to force the matter. I just need to know how to talk about this. I don't want to hear anymore comments about cheating because it's not at all what I'm doing
He might see your point of view and still not want what you want.
