I once worked as a caregiver. White lies happened often where I could not explain the full truth or the patient could not understand it. I began to look at the difference between a white lie due to the truth not being explainable, and one with the truth being explainable. So now if I need to keep something something myself for safety, I try to give enough of the truth without hurting myself. I'm focusing on the point I want to get across while speaking as much truth as I know how.

Thanks for sharing your story. My situation is like this. My partner doesnt want to know everything about my solo sex life. Like when and how i masturbate for example. One day i had to say a white lie about a thing to protect her from knowing more about my sex life. Which is what she wanted because she didnt want to know. But still i feel dishonest telling white lie even though she doesnt want to hear the full truth because that is part o my private sex life. Hope that makes sense. :-)

For example if you miss removing all items from masturbation. Like it could happen we are all human. And then partner accidentaly might see something. I would say a white lie to not tell what was going on because she have said that she doesnt want to know. So i am beeing kind not telling and confessing but still beeing forced to feel dishonest.

White lies happen all the time. I wouldn’t feel too bad about it if it’s a rare occurrence.

ChatGPT said I cheated.
I was doing fine today until I asked ChatGPT if i cheated and they said it could count as emotional cheating if you are engaging in intense daydreams and looking someone up on social media to feed a fantasy about them. My partner and I already spoke about me fantasizing about this person and he said it was totally fine since it happened in my head and he has had crushes and fantasies on coworkers too. However I feel absolutely devastated and wrecked with guilt and anxiety and panic right now. I genuinely feel like a horrible horrible horrible cheater. I don’t know what to do. I have therapy scheduled for later this week but I really really need some advice right now!!! I feel like it could count as cheating since it did happen during a few weeks where i felt a bit distant from my partner and I feel like the daydreaming was excessive. I am so so scared. Do I confess? Do I tell him I cheated? He already told me once that cheating is a physical interaction (and I literally have not interacted with this person outside of surface level responses in a group server that my partner is also a part of). Do I have a moral obligation to tell him I cheated? I need to know.
