Which one is these is correct?
"I have never done that to you"
Or
"I never did that to you"
And what if I add the word "before" at the end of the sentences above, would it still be correct?
for instance, I caught my partner cheating, and I told him one of those sentences, and I meant that I never cheated on him my entire life, which of those sentences is grammatically correct? I have read somewhere that those sentences suggest similar meaning. And it also denotes that you never tried it before, only until today. Can anyone help me clarify my confusion?
PS: I'm just college student (BA- English 3) , and I'd love to be corrected, because I love English and I love writing poems. And no, I didn't ask these questions for a cheating boyfriend. Thank you. ??
