I’m a part of the management team of a hotel and I’m in a committed relationship and getting married soon.
Sometime in July we had some late hours at the office. I was pretty tired and drowsy and my maintenance guy came behind me and started massaging my shoulders and neck muscles. It felt really good but before I could catch myself and realize what was happening we were all over the office.
I feel so terrible and so guilty. I don’t understand what’s going on honestly, I don’t have any feelings for this guy.
I love my fiance with all my heart. This guilt just would not go away and I want to talk to him about it but I’m too scared and too embarrassed.
Besides, my girlfriends says what he does know won’t hurt him. I’ve never kept secrets from him before; I want to tell him but ….what should I do?
Should I tell him?

Dear Need Answers,
This is a rather unfortunate position you got yourself in and your feeling of guilt is quite understandable.
If you think this whole incident was something beyond your control and the guilt is getting out of control, then you should talk to your fiance about it.
One of the main impediments of a solid relationship is the keeping of secrets between partners. One well kept secret leads to another and to another and before you know it secrets keep piling on each other and it gets out of control.
So be honest and tell your fiance.
On another note, don’t ever get yourself so tired that you end up in such position again.

THAT WAT MAKE THE RELATIONSHIP NICE ,,, CAN’T TELL EVERYTHING WHY BECAUSE EVERYTIME U GUYS GET INTO AN ARGUEMENT THAT WELL COME UP
GIRL JUS KEEP IT , WELL U LOOKIN FOR HIM HE GONE LOOK FOR THAT MAINTENANCE MAN AN END UP IN JAIL // MY MOTHER N FATHER INLOVE AN I ASK MY FATHER ONE TIME ABOUT TALKIN THE TRUTH ,, MY FATHER SAID HE DON’T KNO HER YET .. AFTER ALL THESE YEARS THAT WA HE SAYIN
Tell the truth , what if the maintainance guy decides to tell someone the truth…can you work with that guilt? everything you do from this point on you are going to be jumpy and frightning. tell him if he loves you , you both will find away to make it work and work around it but note that you are going to have to work extra hard to keep his trust or bulid it back if its lost..if you love your fiance you should tell him the truth, the worst thing is to hear someone else with it …you will have to lie about it even saying that the maintainance guy is lier..lies on top of lies..one day you wont be able to keep up.. clear your conscience , everyone make mistakes ! dont go into a marriage with a bag of lies.. what ever pain is in the relationship , thats something that you have to fix and be prepared to fix if you know you are going to tell the truth…because at the end of the day. you did the deed…so fix it. before things get out of control..somethings dont always go to the grave. THings have a way of catching up on you…do it now before its to late..better late than never..if knows that ten years down the road its gonna hurt even more..because he’ll want to know what else have you kept from him since then..and anything you say he wont believe or it’ll be hard to believe..because 1 you probably lie if there’s a leak through the maintainance guy and 2 you probably keep it a secret …. Be honest with yourself and be honest with him.. you would want the same from him.
My Dear, What happens in the dark always come to light no matter how long it takes. I would suggest you tell your fiance, if you don’t the guilt will consume you..If your fiance truly loves you he will forgive you. Don’t take this secret into your marriage, the maintenance guy mith just decide to tell someone who mght tell your future hubby..I would rather him hear it from me than someone else..come clean no matter how painful take responsibility for your actions.
Why does/should she feel GUILTY? It was a spur of the moment fling. Does she think her lover is not “maintained” elsewhere?
Do your thing girl and keep your mouth shut. Afterall, it is YOUR BODY. You are nobody’s sex-slave.
Always remember that a lie is a trap that will catch you. Our conscience is a powerful weapon. When you look in the mirror who do you see? Can you live with your self knowing what you have done. We are such hypocrites. Some women live by double standards, but expect all men to be truthful and honest. To thy own self be true.
Man can’t take things like that you will be blame keep your mouth shut. Me in a relationship for 10+ years and can’t even get an engagement ring and me faithful.
Deep down, you really knows what happen and how you end up with the Maintenance guy. Be true to yourself. Anyways none of my business. Remember if you tell your fince be prepared to hear the “Wedding is Off” think about what you are going to do to get your fiance to trust you again; maybe you should consider quiting your job; whatever you dont fire the Maintenance Guy. Or just dont tell your fiance nothing and stay away from the Maintenance Guy
I don’t agree with telling. You made a huge mistake that you deeply regret. Have you learned your lesson? Are you certain you will never succumb to temptation again? The best that will come of telling your fiance is that you will feel releif in coming clean but you will either lose him or you will cause a huge rift in your relationship forever. He will never trust you at work late again for starters. You made the mistake. You had the fun and now the regret. Why do you want to cause your fiance pain for what you did? You think that if he forgives you your pain from the guilt will subside. I’m telling you now it won’t. You’re going to create a different pain. I suggest you choose instead to make an extra effort to be a loving fiance towards you man,look at your relationship and inside yourself to understand why you so quickly strayed, and fix that in yourself. If you’re Catholic go to confession if that helps. But you created the stress yourself so don’t go trying to hurt others anymore than you already have.If, on the otherhand, you turn out pregnant or with an STD then you need to tell your fiance immediately so he can terminate the relationship today.
Girl keep your mouth shut. Some things you have to take to the grave. This will only cause problem in your relationship, man cannot take bun they only can give.
Hmm she just wanted some C#@& man
Jesus CHRIST THE MAINTENANCE GUY?! lol Well he is there to “FIX” them pipes so i guess he did. Don’t worry girl it’s just the lil H@@ in you that poked out it’s head. Honest mistake and as long as the “OTHER GUY” could keep a secret then “WHAT HE DOESN’T KNOW ISN’T GOING TO KILL HIM” so your girlfriend is right.
