Yup, completely confess to all.
I am selfish and self absorbed. Maybe a bit of a narcissist, working on it but self aware. And yes, you are completely correct, I realized marriage was not a good thing for me (or for the other person, hehe, that's how bad I am, had to come back and edit to add this as a second thought).
You are who you are.
- effingwewt 5y agoA selfish person would have actually cheated, you aren't in denial of anything, and I'm sure many people would prefer that to a cheating liar. I'd say the person you responded to read your story through the lens of their own personal history, but then I guess I'm guilty of the same.
- LurkingPenguin 5y agoBeing selfish means that you are concerned excessively or exclusively with yourself. In a relationship, you can't say "I didn't cheat and therefore I am not selfish." There are many behaviors that most people would reasonably consider "selfish" that don't involve infidelity. Not sure what my personal history has to do with this obvious fact.

- lexapro 5y agoYou say this as if you can't choose who you are. Sounds like an excuse to continue with your selfish behavior.
