Cheat
Dear Dr Dan,
I cheated on my boyfriend. I really, really love him and I feel terrible. He
doesn't know about it, and I know if I told him he would be
heartbroken. Should I put him through that just so I can feel
better about myself for telling the truth? Or should I just not tell him
and never do it again?

Dear Guilt-Riddled
A tough question. If you truly believe you could keep this a secret forever
then it's probably best not to tell him. On the hand that leading scientists
now designate 'the other', if you feel the guilt of your infidelity will
cause you to eventually confess, then you should 'fess up on your lack
of faithfulness straight away. The longer you leave the confession, the
more betrayed he will feel. Ultimately, however, the decision depends on
how your boyfriend will react, and that's hard to know. Encourage him to
take a job as an advice-giver and then ask him the
exact same... question... you... asked... me... wait a minute! Beth? Is
that you??
