do you believe in that line?..would you still give a chance to a cheater to prove to you that he/she can still change or will you be hesitant and believes that he/she might cheat on you again?

I use to believe in that line, but not so much anymore. I do believe that people can change and if they cheated once, then there was obviously something wrong with the relationship. I'm not saying the person that was cheated on deserved to be cheated on, but that there was just something missing in the relationship. Definitely honest and open communication can help prevent a spouse or significant other from cheating. I do believe with therapy a "cheating spouse or significant other" might be able to change their ways. They have to want it though and care enough to save their relationship.

We need to give those people who had done wrong a second chance and if still they destroyed your trust and cheated on you again...I guess..you don't deserve that person and that's the time you should leave that person.

Not on your life!! Chating for me, is an absolute deal breaker!! if my partner were to cheat on me, that would completely end the relationship. People should know going into a relationship that cheating is not acceptable. I think that's one of the reason why adultry is called CHEATING!

yup it's unacceptable but we are just humans..as much as we want to avoid some temptations..we have the tendency to fall for it.But second chances should be given to those people who are willing to prove that they deserve the second chance given to them.We just need to trust them.
