Has anyone blackmailed you and using it to weasel his way in to a relationship with you?

I have done something embarrassing and bad in the past and has recently resurfaced. This guy I know has been using it to get me to go out with him. I originally joined the site to get it out of my system but still held back. I don’t want to disappoint nor shame my family but every time I ignore him, he drops subtle hints. He is starting to show up unannounced or ring my father to have small talks. He would get his sister to ring me and chat etc. I can’t stand him and everything about him irritates and annoy me.

I’m thinking of telling my family what I’ve done so I can tell this A-hole to f**k off. I live in a small conservative religious village, gossip spread like wildfire here. 😢

I had a 5 min thing with a neighbor and it turned into years of her blackmailing me ,
Let them tap into my power when her man was to sorry to pay his bill
Use my van cause poor Daniel needs milk and diapers ,hitting me up for money because her drunk knows I will do anything for her ,
But if I said no she was telling me what a shame it would be if my wife knew what we had done ,,and now she is not even fine to me ,,how was I so stupid ?

I knew it was going to ruin my marriage ,the second we did the deed I knew it was a huge mistake .
She was saying next time we could do it in my wifes bed ,NO that is never happening ,,this was a mistake ,a bad mistake ,this will kill my wife

But she was hard to resist ,and my wife was putting her Mom before me ,
I was home every night alone ,while she was with her Mom instead of home with her husband ,so that was my excuse ,my wife caused it leaving me alone to often knowing a good looking woman (who flirted in front of my wife )
She actually wanted me to leave my wife for her ,my wife was younger and way prettier ,,,I just got caught up in the fantasy .

I asked my brother what he thought ,he is 10 yrs older ,He tells me to go for it ,,
But then when I finally confess ,not only to my wife ,but my family and hers too
I wanted to confess everything ,no one to ever be able to put me in a position like this again ,,so I confessed crap I done through out my entire life ..

If I was losing my wife and my life anyway ,get it all out there

It took years to recover ,but guess who was there to comfort my wife
My Brother ,,,I should have busted his snake in the grass ass too
he was cheating on his wife ,,but his was more than a 1 time thing .

But I don't snitch on others ,even when they pull that
I was happy to have MY SINS off my chest

I have never allowed myself to be put in that situation again

@rckt148
You’re right, I have been guarding this secret for way too long. I need to let it out so I won’t end up in this situation again.

I have learned my lesson, like you did. This heavy burden has been weighing me down for far too long.

@PilinisesiofParadise you can always confess in those churches that I seen on TV. ... Or tonight between you and your god. You may wake up as a new person tomorrow 😊

@PilinisesiofParadise After it was all out ,she and her man split up too.
Her sisters and even her daughter actually started chasing me for a while ,
one of her sisters and I actually dated ,but I never let that go anywhere
But she actually thought I would want her when she had black mailed me ..
I was the cause of my Marriage ending ,that is 100% on me
But no way in hell after it cost me so much was I going to live with a constant reminder ,and rub salt into the wound that I had inflicted on my wife ..
My wife is still single ,after me she never wanted to marry again .that was 25 yrs ago
She said I was a tough act to follow ,and she never wanted to feel that pain again ,,a few years ago I got to tell her again how sorry I was .
She was OK ,2 kids but never married the Dads ,she called them sperm donors
She still said I was it ,,she wished all that never happened ,she still loved me ,,I still love her too ,,but the damage was done ,and we can't go back again ,,but I sure as hell can learn from it ,,I will never cheat again
Mom or no Mom ,she was an angel ,she did not deserve that ,I couldn't keep lying to her ,and I was not about to let our families think I divorce was in any way her fault ,,
I gave her everything ,I left broke and penniless
I deserved to live on the streets ,,
I was mad for a while her asking me to leave before I could get somewhere to go, and I was disabled ,,but had she done it to me I would not have been able to stand the sight of her either
Valuable lesson

@MightySizeQueen that only deals with the sin
God always forgives ,,but that don't stop babies from still coming ,people who died are still dead ,we still need to face the music to make it really be behind us ,,
Then Christ will carry your heavy burden and make it light
Confession also takes away satans power ,
When its all out there ,buried in Christ ,Christ can no longer see that sin
Neither can he ..
He has no ammo or past to remind me of
I paid my price for it too ,,I come clean
What I did is old news
