To understand this post, I will have to give you a bit of background information.
About 6 months ago, one of my very few friends that I've known since the fourth grade, Stone, was moving two states away. By this time, Scruffy and I were dating for about 9 months and were very serious. Scruffy was getting over his insecurities and trust issues that he had from previous relationships. Well, Stone was a long term, and very close friend to me and I thought he was going to leave on a Friday, so when he told me at midnight on that Wednesday that he was leaving the next morning at 6 in the morning by train. We were planning to hang out one last time before he left because we probably would never see each other again. Well, this change in plans kind of made that hard. So, we made plans that he would walk over to my house and we would hang out on the porch in secret so my mom wouldn't know. I let Scruffy know what was up even though he was unhappy about the time of night it was. At the last minute, Stone asked if I could drive over and pick him up, and after a little thought, I said okay. However, I did not tell Scruffy. Thinking he would be even more upset knowing we were alone in a car, I let him believe in the original plans. I lied. I went to pick Stone up. We decided to go to the school where we first met, but I accidentally went to the wrong school (I went to a lot of elementary schools). We then decided to just go sit in a McDonalds. Well, I drove to Mcdonalds but they were closed so we just sat and talked in the parking lot for a while, all the while still leading Scruffy to believe that we were sitting on my front porch. About a hour and a half later, I took him back home. I said my goodbye and headed home. Once home, Scruffy and I got into an argument about Stone being over at my house til 3 in the morning. My defense was I was saying goodbye to a close friend.It hurt him alot and he lost alot of trust in me. I never told Scruffy the truth of what happened that night.
Recently, a friend came up to me about her keeping something from her boyfriend. It was innocent but she knew he would overreact, so she asked me advice if she should tell him or not. I, troubled, asked Scruffy's advice about it. He made a good point that she should tell her boyfriend, and made me think of what I, myself, haven't told my boyfriend. So, the next day I told my friend Scruffy's advice and of my own deception. I told her that it's not right for me to tell her she should be honest if I couldn't/wouldn't. So I made a point to tell Scruffy what really happened those six months ago.
He was pissed, and even worse, hurt. He didn't care of what really happened, heck it would have been better then to tell the truth because he was more upset bout what he had thought happened. He was hurt that I had lied and had continued to lie for half a year. I lied whenever he had asked if there was anything else to tell him and I said no. I've hurt him. I've been lying to him all this time when he has told the truth about things he didn't even want to admit but did it to be honest with me. and I couldn't even be honest with him. Who knows when he'll be able to trust me again, or when he'll want to touch me again.
To make it worse, just moments before I told him, he was telling me that he just couldn't be in a bad mood around me because I just make him feel better. He was looking so happy and proud, and then just minutes later, looking so angry and hurt. I did that. I hurt him. Had I told the truth since the beginning, he wouldn't have been hurt like this. I hate this, I feel disgusting and worthless. I feel like I don't deserve to be forgiven. I feel like a horrible person. I am a liar and I lied to the man I love. Even if he does truly forgive me, I don't think I ever will. Don't ever lie.

P.s. Scruffy, I know you don't read my blogs really anymore, but if you happen to read this, I am sorry for what I did, I would do anything to take away the pain I've caused you. I know you think I got upset because I thought you wouldn't forgive me so you told me you already have, but I was upset because I knew you'd forgive me, but I don't deserve it and you deserve better. I love you and if I could try again, I would. I'm sorry.
