The ball has just started rolling (been on a date or two) with a guy I like and have known for a fair few years. We have always been very flirty and had a thing a while back but nothing substantial as of yet. However, the other night I kissed someone else, my friend posted a photo and he (everyone knows everyone where I live) saw! After meeting up with him, he asked me how my night is and mentioned the photo asking me who the guy was pulling, to which I panicked and without thinking replied 'don't know'.

Even though It's so early that I wouldn't have needed to defend kissing someone else, I now feel awful for lying just to avoid a bit of awkwardness. I have feeling he knows it was me and don't want him to be coming to his conclusions but at the same time is it worth a serious conversation after we've been on one date?

I'm assuming you are both adults and if it bothers you that you lied, when you go out tell him. He'll either understand or he won't

He might be more bothered by the lie then the kiss, your only getting to know each other and he might also have kissed someone else, for me the kiss so early on would not be a deal breaker, the lie would.

If you like him, come clean, say you panicked because you like him, you don't have to have a ' I want your baby conversation', see what he says.

If he does not want to continue dating, so be it, and let the lesson be learned.

Thank you!
This is what I thought I should do, I feel awful for lying so fingers crossed he will understand!
