People make mistakes, no reason to compound them and hurt innocent people for no reason.

Just leave him if you are going to tell him and make up a reason. Don't create more drama it's just cruel.

It's not selfish of the cheater...it's allowing the BS to decide his/her future with the truth in hand. My H made a big career decision while I was in the A. He told me that had he known I was in an A, he would've made a different decision. I took his truth away from him without his consent. Yes, I hurt my husband immeasurably when I told him about my A. But I started hurting him when I decided to have the A...not at the point when I told him. After d-day, my H had all the information and the power to decide what he wanted to do moving forward. He could've swept everything under the rug, he could've kicked me to the curb. He had the power to choose his life. And that is what is so scary about confession...the WS cannot predict what the BS will do. But, that is the consequences of one's actions.
