Today, I snuck out of my house in the middle of the night. I ran into my dad carrying wine into another house. I didn't assume he was cheating until he saw me and said, "I won't tell if you don't tell, please don't tell your mother." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got drunk at a party. I didn't want my parents to know, so I took out my phone, called my parents, and asked them not to tell them I'm drunk. FML
Today, my parents heard me leaving my room at 2 am, and freaked out because they thought I was sneaking out. I was too embarrassed to tell them that I was getting food instead of having a social life. FML
Today, my boyfriend sneaked into my room, not knowing I wasn't home. It would have been great, except my dad went in my room to put laundry away. FML
Today, I told my dad I couldn't make the trip to see him this weekend because I had to work. I surprised him by driving ten hours, and while he was out, I let myself in with my key and hid behind the couch for when he came in. He walked in. I jumped out. I then had to call 911. FML
Today, I thought I had gotten away with throwing a party while my folks were gone the night before. They came home and I was as sweet as possible. I could tell they were not buying it, but I thought I was in the clear. Later, they told me I had drunk-dialled them and spilled the beans. FML
Today, I tried to sneakily leave my boyfriend's house at 3 a.m. without his parents knowing. I had a flat tire. FML
Today, I was trying to sneak home from a party. Instead, I head-butted a glass door and woke my mother up. FML
Today, I found out my son has been sneaking out of his room at night to see his girlfriend. He's a fully-grown 23-year-old man with a job and his own car. He doesn't need to sneak out. What an idiot. FML
Today, I received a very expensive bottle of wine for Christmas. My alcoholic mother snuck into my house while I was out and drank the whole bottle. FML
Today, I got up at 2 AM to grab a snack. I quietly crept down the stairs, only to find my dad, mom, and a couple of their friends having a secret poker game. Now they think I have a sleepwalking problem. FML

I agree blackmail him and tell your mom use a the blackmail as evidence : such as him buying you new things that are expensive then show to your mom but stick to her side because that will be a though time. hope things work out.

I've actually been in that situation before. I blackmailed my dad into telling my mom himself. I promise you, it will make you feel so much better in the long run if you confront him about all this. Don't let it build up inside.

Are you sure he was cheating? May be he was taking wine for a secret party or something... and his saying "I won't tell if you don't tell, please don't tell your mother" doesn't imply he was cheating.

Dude be careful. You snuck out so you're probably young but not too young (I'm gonna guess 15-17). Be careful because telling your mom will most likely end in divorce which there's a good chance that will wreck you mentally. Try getting your dad to stop

Tell your mom. Because first of all that is a sin & that is just WRONG. What if he brings a STD or AIDS what if he gives that to your mom. & she dies all because you dint say anything to her. Honestly who cares they wont even be worried about you sneaking out they will be to busy disscusing what happend & so on between them to.

Internet advise is just that... So here's my two cents. (definitely FYL btw.) Your mom really needs to hear this from your dad. Having him tell her would be best, but if not you will need to tell her. (and strong arming /blackmailing him into telling her isn't a bad idea persay...) If you don't, you will likely mess up your relationship with her b/c in her eyes, keeping this secret makes you culpable to the act. That will take a lot longer to forgive than just sneaking out at night. Plus if you are more worried about sneaking out at night than a fairly important relationship incident, then you'll come off as a dumb little kid to her. Which won't help matters.
