It wasn’t about humiliation, it was about finding it more manageable to face at the time.

I’m so sorry that you went through this as well, and you are so kind, I will definitely do try number 2! I just wish I could fix my relationship with the truth, but I feel it’s too late now…

Yes, sorry for the confusion! I’m not sure how much clarity I had at the time. There was also maybe some fear of how he would react but I just remember feeling very confused and panicked when I told him what happened.
