No, keep it to yourself
This position holds that you should keep a one-night stand to yourself rather than confess. It argues that confessing is often selfish—unloading your own guilt onto your partner—and some even contend that a one-night stand does not really count as cheating in the first place.

- Confessing is selfishConfession comes from a place of guilt. It may make the person who cheated feel better to own up to a one night stand. But it's selfish to put the pain and burden of your bad decisions onto your partner, especially if the act of infidelity was a one-off.
- One night stands aren't cheatingOver the last few years, adultery surveys in the United States and the United Kingdom have found that not everyone believes one night stands should be considered cheating.
