Tried My Very Best
- I broke a promise to my boyfriend, we're in a long distance relationship now. And I promised I'd come see him right after my 18th birthday, but I cannot afford to a ticket, and my mom won't help me pay for it. But I really thought my mom would help me, so I promised my bf I'd come to him. And we had agreed on that I would come there on a special date, and I can't delay it anymore either. But today I told him I couldn't come, and he didn't seem mad or anything at first, he said he'd try to come to me. But then he just said, too much of a promise eh... I've apologized for promising something I couldn't keep, and explained myself. I know a broken promise hurts, but I really have tried my very best.

Hurts me more
- I broke a promise to my girlfriend. I promised to put her before myself. She was in a vulnerable/hurt state and I abandoned her because I had to get home or my father would be angry. Her best friend helped her sort it out a little after I left. I asked her if she could forgive me two days later and she did. I still though can't get over it, I feel horrible and worthless because this girl, who is so important to me, couldn't rely on me when she really needed me. I told her to leave me and find someone who could keep their promises and she refused. I love this girl so much that this just killed me to break such an important promise. Out of this I say, make sure you can keep your promises or it might just tear you apart when you inadvertently break the ones to the ones you love the most.

Broken Promise
- I broke a promise to my boyfriend a couple days ago. I had promised I wouldn't tell anyone about our little secret. But, I did. It had all blown over when I finally admitted that I told some people. He's very mad at me. Actually, he says he's aggravated and sick to his stomach cause he knows if it spreads around we're dead. I told him it wouldn't. I completely trust my friends. But, now he doesn't trust me. I completely trust him still, and I love him with all my heart.. I don't know what this is going to do to our relationship. I'm soo scared..

My big mouth :(
- I broke a promise to my best friend. I called her boyfriend to ask him advice and he brought up the subject about babies. I accidentally sort of told him that she had her tubes tied. Now she is super mad at me and I am not sure how to fix it. My stupid big mouth I feel hurt and horrible. What do i do ? :(

I feel like nothing when I hurt him
- I promised I'd never smoke method again .. I went seven months and I took a tiny hit. I told him a couple days later even though he'd never find out. Now he can picture us with a future. We've been together almost a year. I can't look at myself or stop crying.

I have broken a promise
- To me a promise is my trust. You break a promise you lose my trust, therefore it hard to stay with my boyfriend when I don't trust him.

Broke a promise to my bf
- When my boyfriend and I first met I was starting to smoke weed. I told him i had only done it a few times but didnt really like the idea of it. but It helped relax me and forget about my sadness from my previous break up. After my previous bf found out I had smoked more when we were starting to talk, he freaked. He started questioning us and I didn't want to lose another person I was growing feelings for. I immediately promised I would never do it again. Although maybe 2 months after that we had already been dating, I smoked weed with my neighbor. I've smoked maybe 4 times since then, and my bf and I have been dating for over a year now. I've never said a word about it. I've also drank a few times, and gone to one of my old close guy friends house a few times all while my bf and I have been dating. I feel so guilty but I knoww he will think differently of me and who knows probly never trust me again if I told him any of this.. What do I do...

Disappointment
- i promised my gf I wouldn't do coke anymore cause she hates it. and I've done it like 15 times in the 4 months we've been dating. A little while ago I confessed and even though she's incapable of breaking up with me, shes pretty disappointed right now. I just wish I was in love with her like she is with me, so I could understand and be more comforting to the pain she's feeling right now ... :(

It wasnt worth it
- I was going to go to my first college party and my gfs at high school. She asked me not to drink much so I promised her just one beer. Well I went to the party and had one and it didn't seem to affect me... so I had another and another and another. 4 total. I told her on the phone after the party because I didn't want to lie. But now she doesn't trust me :( I know it was so wrong. I've apologized so many times... but not before trying to put the blame on my friends. I don't deserve her :( never will. I've hurt her so much now and its been a week and she hasn't been able to get over it. :( I hate myself for it and I'm never going to go to another party again.

Broke a Promise
- I promised my bf that I'd go bake some cookies then text back soon--I pinky promised him. I fell asleep. Surely, I probably shouldn't be fussing over it so much but I still feel bad...

I broke a promise
- My friend told me not to tell her other best friends a big secret and I end up telling them and my friend still doesn't know about this and I hope her other friends wouldn't tell her and I hope she won't stay mad at me for a long time if she founds out. And she trusted me so much, I hope this won't break our friendship! TT___TT

Broken promises= broken hearts
- I promised my best friend in the past that I would never date this guy again because he was rude and always hurt me but I went back to him over and over again even after I promised. We had a huge fight and I felt awful for days thankfully we made up and we promised to never leave each other alone. Unfortunately... She currently is breaking that promise and it hurts so much. Promises don't do anyone any good if you don't go through with it. We throw that word around too much.

promise to my girlfriend
- I promised my girlfriend I wouldn't do cannabis again and I did, it shows how stupid and unthoughtful I am. We haven't stopped fighting and we both haven't stopped crying. I think this is the worst thing I've did to her, this has hurt us both so much. We can't even have a conversation anymore, a stupid thing like this has wrecked my relationship with the most beautiful girl on this earth.
