yes, that's what I mean...

the question is , if someone had sex with a boyfriend/girlfriend, and repented , this means confessing, forsaken , etc .. and after sometime feels that the relationship is not working anymore, should this person stay for what hada happened or is it better to let it go...? I mean, according to the Church, can someone move on ,or if you get to know another person and fall in love , do u have to tell him/her about your past? or as you repented this is not necesary? is this a reason to stay with a person even though the relationship is taking you nowhere?

why are u bringing up old threads?

this thread is soooo old...

i'm not really sure. I'm still waiting for it..

I sent u a message...

hello. I hope this is not a too long story.. I thought that may be you all could give me some advice on this issue. Here's a little background information. some months ago I was debating with myself of what to do, I did something wrong and it needed to be confessed to my bishop, and I knew it but I tried to justify myself and found a bunch of exuses no to do it, including some of my friends telling me i didnt have to. it was something related to the Law of Chastity.. after trying to make myself think that I didnt have to, i knew in my heart and I felt I had to do it, I just thought that it was too embarrassing to do it. I had repented and "forsaken the sin. so i just neede this final step. My boyfriend wasnt LDS but some months ago he converted and I still felt that something was wrong. well to make this story a little less longer , after praying I received the confirmation to go to my bishop and so I did, I confessed about it, he didn´´t ask for any details, I thought he was going to be very shocked or disappointed but if he was he didnt show it, he even told me that we all make mistakes and that he thought that I repented, he told me not to take the sacraments, not give public prayers, etc (now he reduced the "punishment only not to take sacraments) ( I wasnt disfellowshipped though) I have to go see him ever week to talk about how im feeling. He told me that I might be able to go to the temple next trip which is next month, although he told me the sin was consider very serious, I m confused, and this is the problem, Im repented but I dont feel that I had made rstitution or done enough to pay what i did.. its not that i want to be ex'd or smthing but I feel this way..its a weird feeling, I feel as if I needed to confess something else, cause I think my bishop thought that it happened only once but actually was a lot of times and for more than a year. I assume he thinks that way cause he said something like that... but I dont think i have to say this cause he didnt ask... the question is what should I do to know that Im in the right path.that our HF has forgiven me or will. I felt relieved after confession but then I became confused...
