How about gay gaffer cheating, breh

Right, I think it's time I finally came clean about something that's been weighing on my conscience. But, for the sake of anonymity, I'll do it through this little thread.

About 3 years ago, I got engaged to the woman who is now the absolute love of my life. We've spent 5 happy years together and we finally got married a year ago. I couldn't have ever asked for more, but for some reason I had this strange moment of weakness about 4 months after getting engaged. A gaffer (who will remain anonymous for both of our sakes) and I were good friends on the board and we both lived in the same state, so we would meet up regularly to play Street Fighter 2 and go to a bar. He and I were really close and, well, one thing lead to another and we sort of hooked up. I had a gay experience with a gaffer 4 months into my engagement and nobody has ever found out since. It'd probably be fine if this was just the one time, but every time we met up, we did things. I think we met up about twice a month, so make what you will of that. Adding to that, it may or may not have been illegal to do some of the things we did in the state we're from, but I'm not going to admit to anything further than that.

We stopped meeting up around the time of my wedding, but we still talk.

I just needed to get this off of my chest. I really miss him, but my marriage is the best thing that ever happened to me.

Don't worry, in the back of their heads they will be thinking "darnit, should've stayed home too".

I'm actually pretty much over these feelings; they're from a time when I was a bit depressed. Now that I'm feeling better and am super busy thanks to work and school and volunteering and keeping up appearances, I relish the chance for alone time. Sweet, sweet alone time.

I dropped a poop confessional on the last page, but it got cut off.

Puns intended.

That story was amazing. I would have been so nervous.
 
To the Lurker that e-mailed me about not being accepted to NeoGAF yet:

Why on Earth would you send that from your firm's e-mail, why on earth are you talking about your scrotum and the banhammer and bish's cock?

And you signed it with your name.

And your firm's name. From your official e-mail.

That's just dumb. What if your bosses read that?
 
I like to go on Grindr and talk to guys. I see myself as straight but I was very close to going over to a 45 year old guy's house on Sunday afternoon Im only 23. He was talking about how he was going to get me to wear tights and panties.

I also like to talk to guys, girls and couples on Tinder as a hot bisexual girl (I'm a guy). Talking away to girls, guys and couples. I'd never have the balls to make my own account but it's nice to talk to people who think you're attractive. I was talking to one girl for near a month from my city and some recent divorced housewife who would get drunk and send me the filthiest messages imaginable.

About the first bit: Stay safe!

About the second bit: If a 45 year old dude wants to put you in tights and panties, you probably look pretty good. You should try using your own identity. Stop wearing this false mask. Go JGL. I'd post that photo of him in a garter or whatever it's called, but I'm at work.

Based on what you've written, in my amateur, non-professional opinion... you're not gay. Your OCD is screwing with you and dumping intrusive thoughts in your head. See a therapist.

But hey, maybe you're bi.

Never knew this thread existed, not sure I can stomach hearing how PEOPLE really are. It's always been a thought that kind of scares me. That people really hide a lot of who they are from others. Sometimes I feel like, it's better to NOT know. Although in some cases, I think it sucks that people can't be open about who they are. That some people really suffer as a result of it.

Anyways, I'm listening to Twin Peaks soundtrack, and seeing you reply to the people sending in posts...is eerily perfect.

I now see NotTheGuyYouKill as:

That sounds similar to avenues my OCD attacks me. Generally, it picks something I consider vile and unacceptable, and convinces me that is what I am. In 7th grade, it was that; feel a little scuzzy admitting that but...

Took me a long time to realize what it was. One thing that helped me was the book Brain Lock, which gives you ways to mentally fight your OCD.

The below confessor requested that I tag this confession with a 'trigger' warning, so there it is. Trigger warning.



Don't apologize for trying to reach out, man. This probably isn't the most depressing thing we've received.

I feel like commenting because this confession is likely to get lost amongst the most embarrassing/easily mockable ones. Congrats for taking the step to reach out, and I hope and urge that you look for professional help ASAP. I obviously can't relate to your situation, so I won't pretend to be an authority on how to deal with it (as far as I can tell you're doing it well and on your own terms), but try to rationalize how you can't let this experience hurt you anymore than it strictly should, and you should take any steps available to minimize this impact, with professional help being the most obvious way to do it. Remember there's such a thing as professional confidentiality; no one else other than your therapist will ever know about your experience. You can even take your time and visit various therapists before you settle on who to share this stuff with. Good luck and hang in there :)

Sounds like the best email so far
 
Hey,

I doubt anyone would recognize my email so I don’t care to send it.

My best friend started dating my ex-girlfriend the other day.

They hid it from me and lied. Yet they accuse me of being the bad guy.

I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel. I want to punch them both straight in the mouth.

The funny thing is I could sleep with her if I wanted.

Oh, I forgot to mention this is my ex wife’s younger sister.

I’m not sure that matters. This isn’t much of a confession more of a need to vent.

You pretty much set yourself up for failure when you started dating your ex-wife's sister.

Well now you have to share.
 
I was going to write out a very long confession but...gist of it is...I'm tired and exhausted from life and I can't get money or resources to treat my mental illness.

I just want to stop the thoughts in my head so I can pursue my dreams..

Is mental care covered by the government in your home or by your work or anything? Are there any resources you can take advantage of? Family, friends?

I am a morbidly obese, socially awkward 27 year old virgin. I weigh over 300 lbs (as of the time of writing, 347). I have lost nearly 50lbs in the last 3 months, and I actually feel the best I've felt in many years now, physically. I am not losing weight to attempt to become more attractive or meet girls (like I have tried in the past), for now it's only for health reasons so I don't croak of a heart attack at 30.

I'm a virgin mostly because I stopped caring a long time ago. I know that I am hideous and I don't even attempt to meet women or anything like that, but I think if I tried I could probably make it happen anyway. It really doesn't matter to me anymore whether I find someone or not. I'm happy to go home and play games online with my buddies. I have no interest in marriage or children.

I have a good job as a Software Engineer and live in an apartment alone. I have no debt whatsoever and can freely spend to support gaming as my hobby. I don't consider myself depressed, but I think most people would probably consider my attitude as depression. I like to sit at home and play games, and always have ever since I can remember.

If you are truly, in your heart, happy with your life, then I wish you well.

Mysterious guy, if you don't care about your virginity and those things, then who cares? All that matters is that you're happy.

All these years later I still chuckle at what a fucking moron that guy is.

BrokeGAF Streetfighter? That's what I'm calling this one.


Don't worry about this man. You are an adult and can do the things you want to do, and there's not any shame in it. If you having sex with other people wasn't part of your agreement with your wife, then don't tell her about it. As long as you didn't do it with the intention to hurt her (which it doesn't sound like you did) then you didn't do anything wrong.

If these meetups were outside of the bounds of your committed relationship and it bothers you that you did it, you can't change it. When you think of it, acknowledge to yourself that you did it, acknowledge to yourself that it was the wrong thing to do, but also remember to acknowledge to yourself that it doesn't make you a bad person.

Yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and disagree with you on that. If you make a commitment to someone and you're sneaking around behind their back, without their knowledge, then that is a pretty rotten thing to do. Either be honest with her, or don't do it (either get married to her or have hot gay GAFer sex).

When you make a commitment to another person, you have a responsibility.

You're right in that you have a commitment, but you have to remember that that commitment is different for every couple, and this person didn't share what the terms of his agreement with his wife is. If it's okay with her that he sleeps with other people, then nothing wrong happened. His saying it's been on his conscience does indicate that it was cheating, but I don't like to assume such things.

It's also my opinion that doing something wrong doesn't make someone a bad person. If he is otherwise an upstanding individual and treats his wife well, then if he cheated on her it's a personal failing. But everyone has failings, and if the results of his weren't destructive to himself or the people around him then I don't think we should be judging him.

It might not make him a bad person, but the fact that he did it on a consistent basis up until he got married certainly says some stuff about him.

That's nasty. I mean... that's just really nasty on multiple levels.

Nasty.

I want to make a further comment on this one. Did you at least wrap it up before you had sex with a random drunk girl that walked up to you at 5 AM that you banged in your car while your girlfriend was asleep that also lost her clit ring in your car?

Which was the doozy? Something about incest or an abortion?

I remember being horrified, but I can't recall the content.

I remember being horrified, but I can't recall the content.

Sleeps with his brother's girlfriend (and later fiance) under the guise of teaching her about sex.
Gets her pregnant.
Manipulates her into getting an abortion.
Dumps her.
She marries brother; hates life and everything.
Doozy has no remorse.
 
A follow up to the individual who e-mailed earlier about his/her mental health:

Mental care isn't covered by the government...at least not here.

I'm unable to find work in my present condition.

I have one best friend I can confide in about all of this. I'm generally untrustworthy of others because a lot of people don't understand the hell I go through each day. It's just a casual "it'll get better" or "get used to it". The mental health thread is helpful at times on GAF, but I can't substitute it for actual mental health care, if you get what I mean?

I don't know...I'm just tired and wish I can go for my dreams. I'm a writer and painter...yet, I can't make anything work out for me. I want to be artistic yet I lack the physical and mental strength to keep going. Even though I still do things for my art and writing...I just still feel exhausted in the end.

I just want something to work out even though I work really hard...

To be honest, I don't have that much experience with mental health to give a detailed response to try and help. Perhaps another member here can help out. Would you be able to move? Perhaps a change of scenery, environment, location can help? Your artwork/writing, how often do you actually work on it? What motivates you to do it? To want to do it?
 
Yeah, so this one is... not fun. Don't mix Xanax and alcohol, kids.

I went to a party and texted a female friend of mine to show up when she got out of work. She ended up showing up at like 2 am when the party was just ending. We took 2 xanax bars each and decided to start drinking really heavily. After about an hour or so she decided we should leave and we went to my car. I told her I was way too fucked up to drive so we sat in my backseat. I completely blacked out at some point and when I woke up both her and I had our pants and underwear off. She woke up extremely worried and kept asking me what happened and I honestly had no idea what to tell her. She told me I needed to drive her home. I got home and passed out. The following morning I called and texted her to ask if she was fine only to have no response. I had a giant hickey on my neck and a bunch of scratch marks on my back as well. That was about 6 months ago and despite me trying to reach out to her asking if she was ok she as completely ignored me. I feel like a fucking rapist and I have no idea what I did that night. I was friends with this girl for about 4 years and it all went to shit after that night.

So has she cut off all communication with you? I wonder if she remembers.

The fuck am I reading? I completely agree with acknowledging what he did, but you're kidding yourself if you think he didn't do anything wrong. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

What the fuck am I reading? He cheated, he did everything wrong, he broke his wife's trust and continues to do it because he hasn't come clean to her.

Here I was thinking that marriage was supposed to be a symbol of love, of partnership, uniting with the person you love most in the world, your one bastion of sanity and hope in a cruel, dreary world. Your spouse is the person you love, respect, and trust the most.

Clearly I was wrong.

I know right. What's the point in even getting married. Should have stayed single.

I hope he sees this post:

You're an asshole. Fuck you and your money.
