When you are in a relationship, there's a possibility that a partner may commit a mistake, I think the worst can be cheating or physically hurting you. So in your case, what are the things that you think you won't be able to forgive? What is the thing that your partner would do that could make you turn your back on the relationship?

I think the worst thing that would could never be forgiven is if my partner were to physically abuse one of the children. I could never forgive that. Being unfaithful could be forgiven in away but not forgotten and I don't think I could stay if there was cheating. I would leave my partner but would probably forgive the mistake in order to still remain peaceful for our kids. I don't think that would ever happen but you never know. My partner has hurt me once and he has been dealing with that issue with the help of anger management so I can forgive one time only, if it ever happens again it will be the last. Like I said I can forgive but not forget. But abuse to the kids would be unforgiven forever.

I think physical abuse would be the one thing I would not be able to forgive. I guess everyone is different. But once I think about all the things that can happen that is the one that comes up as something I would have more trouble understanding , thus forgiving. I don't even know what could be done to fix it. I would have to feel completely reassured that it wouldn't happen again, and that would be difficult.

I think basically I could not forgive cheating. Once you know someone cheats I think you can fully expect them to just keep doing it. I couldn't forgive a cheater. If my partner committed some crime also, I could not forgive that either.

I agree about cheating. And physically hurting someone. Its not acceptable behaviour. And ive been there! Its not nice, not at all!

I think it'll be hard to forgive her if she leaves me for good, with a not so good explanation. I love her so much that I'm willing to wait for her, and she is too. But if she leaves me and quit this fight, I won't be able to forgive myself for not fighting too hard. I will be able to forgive her, but it will wait a long time. Cheating probably will hurt me a big deal, and that is the epitome of all things to hate.

If there was ever abuse towards my children unforgiveable period. I could not forgive that at all . Abuse towards me maybe i could forgive once but if it was a on going thing no way could i forgive that . Deffinatly cheating i could not forgive that , i feel if you love someone so much why cheat , so if he does he must not have loved me like he said he did. so i agree with you those two things are hard to forgive.

Both of the ones you mentioned worked for me. Cheating and abuse are violations of trust. And that can be a hard thing to get over. It takes a long time to build trust. When it gets damaged, sometimes it is unforgivable.

hi.. I have been cheated so many times by my previous partners, so I guess i couldn't take one more.. I'm so glad that my husband is a God fearing man and not really wanna mess up his married life and his kids lives.. If I had not met him or have a partner now who cheats, out he go and never come back again or I don't know what I can do... I really hate men who cheats for whatever reasons. If they want another woman, then he better get out of my life and be with his mistress. I have no time for those kind of men anymore. And I think they are not worth my life..
