    I made a mistake with my girlfriend. The truth is, I had a one-night stand when I got drunk at a bar with my coworkers. I deeply regret what I did. She found out because one of my friends called me and mentioned the woman’s name and apparently that woman told them what happened. I feel sorry for what I’ve done but I don’t know how to regain my girlfriend’s trust. I don’t want to lose her. I love her so much. I was just very drunk and gave in to temptation but it was never my intention to cheat on her. I hope you can help me. Btw, I am 26 and she’s 23. What should I do to make it up to my girlfriend and rebuild her trust? What can I do so she can forgive me?

    How “smart” is your friend that he is openly mentioning this woman’s name on the phone? This means that these things were happening among friends as a matter of pride. You did not tell the girlfriend the truth yourself, but you were caught. If it had not been for the phone call, this matter would probably never have come to light.
    Your girlfriend is still 23, quite young. Breaking trust at this stage means that now she will always have this question in her mind: The next time he goes out with friends, will he get drunk and fall into ‘temptation’ again?
    I think forgiveness is possible, but the relationship will never be as “pure” as it was before. The scar will always remain.
    Ask April, what is your opinion? Do you agree with my point of view!

    The first thing you should do is try to convince her that you are truly willing to change and that it will never happen again. If necessary, you may need to stop drinking, since alcohol and going out to bars were part of what led to the situation.

    Do what you can to show her that you’re serious, so she can slowly start trusting you again. But of course, we still can’t know if she will forgive you—so for now, just do everything you can to make things right.
