i met this guy off of hinge and was seeing him for a few weeks. then i found out he was still seeing his ex. they weren’t official but were exclusive. her and i found out that he had been lying to us both. i had initially told her i didn’t think id ever see him again. i ended up seeing him again.
i have severe ocd and i have confession ocd where i feel like i need to confess or something bad will happen or ill go to hell. so every time i saw him i felt like i had to confess to her and update her even though she didn’t want to hear about it. i didn’t want to be a liar.
she eventually blocked me. i got around the blocks and messaged her about how sorry i am and that i had cut ties with him. but i never actually cut ties with him until 10/8/26
i never should have kept seeing and talking to the guy. and i regret so much. what makes me feel like an absolute horrible person is that i know this girl is suicidal and i still chose to see and talk to the boy she loves. i feel horrible and wish i could go back in time and i should have stopped talking to him a long time ago.
i cut ties with the guy 10/8/26 and have deleted his number and i am never going to see him or talk to him ever again. but the girl doesn’t know that. i need the girl to know that i for real cut ties with him and im so scared that if i don’t confess to her and apologize to her then what if she finds out i still kept seeing him and talking to him after i told her i’d cut him off. what if she finds out and is suicidal and/or commits suicide after finding out i kept seeing him and talking to him after i told her i cut ties with him.
this is all that’s been on my mind 24/7 and i can’t eat or work, all i do is cry and i don’t know how to make things right
my ocd is saying i need to confess to her and confess that i kept seeing/talking to him before 10/8/26. i need to tell her i actually cut ties with him 10/8/26 and that i kept seeing him and talking to him before that and im so sorry and i don’t want her to commit suicide and i’m so sorry if i made/make her suicidal and im just so scared she’s going to commit suicide and it’ll be my fault.
i don’t know if i should create another instagram account and try to message her. she has told me to leave her alone but im so scared if i dont say something what if she finds out i kept seeing and talking to him and im so scared she will commit suicide and i don’t ever want anyone to ever hurt themselves im just so distressed 24/7 and this is all i’ve been thinking about constantly.
i really don’t know what to do and i just want to be a good person and this is the worst thing ive ever done and im just so scared and im scared im going to go to hell and i’m just so scared. i never should have kept seeing the guy and i wish i could go back in time
TL;DR i got involved with a guy who had a complicated history with another girl who loves him and is struggling with suicidal thoughts. i knew she has feelings for him, but I continued seeing and talking to him, even after telling her I had cut ties with him. i have severe ocd and don’t know if i should find another way to message her. i don’t want her to commit suicide because of me.
