a) forgive them and take them back
b) forgive them but find someone else
c) not forgive them at all
I always said I'd do letter B. But when it happened, I did letter A instead. What about you guys? What would you do? How would you handle the situation?

Instead of naming it a "chance" i prefer, probability.
I would tell her that anything like she has done can come and hit her , still i would add that i do not have such intention but i would make her suffer the consequences. She would be kinda paranoid about this if she is really regretful about she has done, so if she was really into earning me back she would put more efforts in this.

I think I get it now. :) What you actually want to do is make her paranoid to see if she really regrets what she did. If she becomes paranoid and exerts more effort into making it up to you, then that tells you that she is really sorry for what she did. Did I get it right?

I would pick A, granted that I really love him. Yeah, I'll tell him I forgave him take him back...but I will make him realize what it feels like...I'm no martyr not saint so I don't think letting him get away with it that easily will prove he's learned his lesson. I will do to him what he has done to me. If our relationship will fail later on because of that, at least I won't regret that I wasn't able to make him pay for it...I'm bad, aren't I? LOL!!! :D

I will do letter A. But of course I will pray hard that my husband won't ever cheat on me and I will do the same. I never want to experience being cheated upon and I never had one in my entire life. Lord please do not allow any temptation to our relationship. But then I think the choice on forgiving depends upon the gravity of the offense done by your partner. Most likely I will forgive as long as it is not as grave as they had done one night stand.

Good thing my husband is very honest. I can feel that. He never drinks, not even smoke. I am glad he never drink and smoke. But for the sake of responding to your question, I think I would ask his explanation. If he did not really know what happened or just got carried away due to his being drunk, I think once is forgivable. Twice is no longer tolerable and we might end up our relationship as simple as that. This is how firm I am because I always believe that prevention is better that cure. So better not drink and not drink with ladies. Just men. Pure men. No gays. As long as one night stand was done without the full mind of my husband then that is still under forgivable circumstances.

i think it depends on the reason why he cheated on me.. i always do the letter A because its just simple problems.. but if he really hurts me a lot,i guess we should first before i made a decision..
