Dear Panel,

I am 18 years old. I've always had a problem being faithful.

My boyfriend's name is "Jerry". He is 16 years old and he is my brother's best friend. He's been hurt in all of his past relationships.

My friend's name is Bryan. We have been friends for about two years. We have had sex in the past.

My Story

I am dating a guy named Jerry. I really liked him and we talked a lot before we got together. We have been dating only about two weeks, but we were friends for a while before that.

Well, one night I decided to have a few friend's over to drink with me. Jerry was there, along with two of my other friends, Bryan & Michael.

Well, everyone passed out except for me and Bryan. At first we just talked & watched TV, but eventually we ended up having sex.

I feel bad for doing that to Jerry because he's been hurt in other relationships. But I really don't regret doing it at all.

If I don't tell Jerry what happened, I will feel bad every time I see him and our relationship will be pointless. But if I tell him, then he will be hurt once again and all of our friends are going to hate me because the breakup will be my fault.

My Question

Should I tell Jerry what happened or keep it a secret from him?

- S.D.
