His Girlfriend Confessed To Cheating On Him After She Supposedly Thought Another Man At The Bar Was Him, But He’s Considering Breaking Up With Her Over It
This 28-year-old guy and his girlfriend, who’s 26, have been dating for two years now, and their relationship has always been stable and filled with love. He genuinely thought that they were headed for a future together.
Yet, just a few days ago, she went out to a bar to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and he wasn’t able to attend due to work.
“I trusted her completely and never had any doubts that she’d be safe with her friends,” he recalled.
Well, when she went over to his house the following day, she looked really upset, and he immediately knew that something was wrong. That was when his girlfriend confessed to cheating on him after she got drunk at the bar.
Quite honestly, though, her version of the events does not make a ton of sense.
His girlfriend claimed that she was pretty wasted that evening and wound up seeing a guy who looked just like him at the bar. So, while in her “drunken state,” she apparently thought it was him – her boyfriend – and approached the man.
She supposedly called out his name, but this other guy just kept smiling and talking to her anyway. Then, his girlfriend spent the rest of the evening with this other man and swore that she thought it was him the whole time.
“She kept calling him by my name, and apparently, he never corrected her. They danced, talked, and left the bar together. She said she was convinced it was me, even when they left,” he explained.
It was not until the next morning, when his girlfriend woke up in a complete stranger’s bed that she realized it wasn’t actually him all along. She said that, at that moment, she was horrified and quickly fled. Afterward, she headed over to his place to tell him everything.

While his girlfriend went over this story, she was crying and promising that she never intended to cheat on him. Rather, she called it a “horrible mistake” since she somehow thought he was that guy.
This has left him totally torn as, on the one hand, he understands that his girlfriend got really drunk and was confused.
“But on the other hand, she still ended up sleeping with someone else,” he vented.
“It hurts so much to think about, even though she says she thought it was me. I love her, but I’m struggling to see how I can trust her again after this.”
That’s why he’s currently considering breaking up with his girlfriend. He already felt insecure when it came to trust and commitment, yet she went and cheated on him anyway – even if she was in “her vulnerable state.”
He knows that she was honest about it and appears to seriously regret what happened. Nonetheless, he’s still filled with doubts.
“Plus, her friends were there and knew me. They could’ve stepped in or done something,” he added.
Now, he’s unsure if ending their relationship would be understandable, given what happened, or if he should give her grace for her “drunken mistake.”
Do you think it’s possible to go an entire night thinking a random man is your boyfriend? How would you handle this situation?
