Moved to its own question.


I've been with my husband for 17 years. I F___ k up one night when I was really drunk. I don't know what happen I blacked out. Now I feel very very bad. My husband is a good man. A working man. There are things he forgets. Maybe cause he is 40 and I'm 56. I love him to death and I'm a good wife.

But I feal so guilty. We never had any secrets but I feel that we do now. I don't want to tell him because it would kill him. We're good for each other, and I think it would be unfair to tell him. It's my burden. That's the price I have to pay. I love him so much, I can't bear the idea of hurting him. Please God Forgive Me.

I think God always forgives, but only you can forgive yourself.

God will forgive, but he wants repentance and sincere request. What have you done to change your life, so that this does not happen, there has to obviously be either another problem or a drinking problem to get to the point of drinking that much.

Do you drink daily, often, how often do you get "drunk" perhaps a good wake up call to turn your life around , make some changes in YOU, to show you are sorry and allow you to forgive you.

So what are you saying. You drank uncharacteristically to the point of blacking out and that's it, or, while you were drunk, you did something that you regret- like sleep with another man?

Were you in a bar, or at a party without your husband? Were you at a girlfriends house with a bunch of girlfriends?

What is the reason behind being drunk, that has you asking for forgiveness. You say that when you blacked out, you don't remember what happened, so why do you think anything happened at all.
