i have a sister and her boyfriend broke up with her just few days ago. he said he needs to fix something. then my sister found out that he was having an affair with another girl. it's an odd thing for him to do because we know him as a very loyal person. i mean, they've been together for two years now and it is only now that he made such mistake. however, he admitted that he made a mistake and just got carried away. he proved to my sister that he still love her and that everything was just a mistake by breaking up with the girl the soonest time.
and now, they have patched things up. i was just wondering, did my sister do the right thing?? because i think it's too soon for them to get back together.. though i know how they loved each other. what do you think???

maybe your sister love her boyfriend so much that she wants to try it again..mistakes can't be corrected by another mistake so give the guy a chance to prove to your sister that he really love her..and i do believe that love is sweeter the second time around..(",)
happy mylotting!!!

Well, I am not saying that your sister is wrong or right. The important thing is to trust her instincts and make sure that she is not fooled again.

We all know that no one is perfect. People make mistakes and they grow stronger because of them. If your sister feels the right thing to do is take him back then that's why she should do. It's completely up to her to see if she can build up her trust with him again. I think it sounds like her heart is in the right place..I just hope his is also.
Something that's extremely helpful in dealing with a relationship that's been marred by cheating is communication and understanding why they did so in the first place. Many people cheat for the simple reason that they feel something is missing from the relationship.
As her sister I would fully support whatever decision she makes, lend her your shoulder and an ear when she needs it. I hope it all ends well!

Everyone says a mistake is a mistake but once a cheater always cheater. I dont think she should have jumped right back into it after he just cheated on her. Making mistakes is one thing but trust is another. 9 times outta 10 usually all guys say "im sorry it was a mistake it jsut happend blah blah blah" when it really didnt "just happen" its an exucse. Even though they've been dating for so long you never really know someone dont matter how long you've been with them. So if i was her id be careful on that kind of situation and wouldnt jump back into it like that.
