Damaged the car

How can you possibly know it would have no impact on their relationship?

Certainly your husband is pleased you're not hurt. Rip off the plaster, tell him, don't worry, no impact on your relationship.

That's a shame! If it's weighing on your mind then tell him - somehow- but you could just avoid that carpark another time.

Wise and kind advice there. Otherwise it will linger and maybe fester between you.

I don't know if DH is the sort that will get angry, some blokes are about cars,

Say you may feel angry about this but... you made a genuine error of judgement when you were very stressed. Good luck.

I suppose it depends on how you think he will react. It is worth the repercussions in order to get it off your chest, or would you be better off keeping quiet.

Just tell him the full story Susie, you'll feel better for it.

Hi how do I gracefully backtrack ? 2 weeks ago in desperation took a blood test appointment at little local hospital about 9 miles away .Got there much later than expected in a total tizz as blood test important. Round and round no spaces saw a elevated bit went up there loads of kids around on mini scooters skateboards etc .Another car came out so I reversed up looking at the kids heard a bit of a bump thought it was a post .Anyway no spaces went back down left car in drop off and ran in .Later DH says someone's damaged the car ! I panicked instead of saying me I said car park was packed etc. Stupid me I'm worried and stressed over how to own up this late ?? Help

Well the best way though probs not the easiest is to rip off the plaster, in other words just tell him the truth otherwise you are just getting yourself all worked up about this.
We all get ourselves in a muddle and say the wrong things on the spur of the moment. Am pretty sure your DH has done similar.
Just calmly tell him and then say how badly you have felt for not saying something sooner, that it has been preying on your mind. Which it has.
Nobody was hurt and the car can be fixed.
All the best.
