Isn't she entitled to know the truth, even if it does hurt, then it's up to her as to what to do with that truth?
He made a decision that does affect her in a way, only he's not allowing her to have any kind of say in that decision.

It depends on the GF. Would being able to tell be best? Yes. But what if she is the non-forgiving type? Is it better to tell and have her leave?
Perhaps worse is what if she would forgive you but be very hurt. You know the crying, self doubt kinda thing. Does she DESERVE this pain because you were a dumbass?
I have never had this kind of thing come up in any of my relationships, but IF it was an honest laspe of judgement and the OP is truely upset with him self and won't do it again, what benifit is there is in telling his gf?
The truth can hurt more than a lie, and she didn't earn the pain.
