Does it right to tolerate your partner of having a third party just to let him/her stay with you?

I will never tolerate such a painful scenario..., If my man doesn't love me enough to stay with me and respect me by staying loyal and faithful to me.., no matter how much i loved him.., i will never allow myself sacrifice and be a martyr for the sake of not being left behind.., If there is a third party.., I will let him go.., There's no reason for him to stay with me.. regardless of the pain..

They say that "Love is Blind". But it does not have to be literally be blind! It's easy for us to say to leave the man because of infidelity but I can understand how the wife is thinking about her kids and how to support them. Well, there are many ways to go with this kind of situation. You could still ask support for your kids even when you are separated with your unfaithful husband. But if you don't have kids then by all means! Leave him! He is definitely not worth the sufferings you have to undergo because of his infidelity.

I think the question should be, will you stay with your partner even when there's a third party? I would say, of course not, I cant tolerate such things because that's a total B.S!even if it's for good reasons, let's say, you have kids and you don't want them to grow in a broken family; and this reason is the most common excuse of martyrs. if you let people hurt you this means you let them step on your dignity and spit on your self- respect.Martyrs should think of themselves and the people who continue loving them and not to the people who continue hurting them. It's easy to say yeah,but I was in the same position and I got over it. Thank God.

Oh NO! of course not! I mean if your partner really loves me I believe that he must not look to anyone else. That is really rude and insulting part on me.

Oh no my dear I won't. That is over my self respect. I think you should let him choose whomever he wanted to be with. I in my case, I won't and I can't handle too much pain. But I saw in the television programs that there are certain cases in the Philippines that Moslems from rich clans are permitted to have many wives as long as the husband can give everything they need in the family. And some really live altogether in one house. That was gross! I swear it will never happen to me.

Infidelity should never be tolerated in any way in any relationship. It is hard to accept that a partner will cheat on you, having him stay with you even knowing that there's a third party is worse since it is actually violating your sense of self respect. If one really loves his/her partner, he/she can forgive them for cheating and give the partner another chance as long as he can plead and assure that there wont be anyone anymore. But being a martyr to tolerate a love triangle is just like digging your own grave of despair and loneliness
