Would You forgive someone who cheated on you?

I have always said that if my partner ever cheated on me that THAT would be the end of it! I'd leave him and never look back because I'm worth more than that and I can truly make someone happy and have someone who wouldn't cheat on me. However, I've never actually been in this situation. I've been married for 9 years now and I love my husband with all my heart! He completes me. If he ever cheated on me I'm not sure that I could actually leave him. I would never forgive him for it though. Needless to say I'm not really sure on this.

Hi, If the reason is genuine then there is nothing wrong in forgiving him. Sometimes there are misunderstandings and so relationship ends. But they always miss each other. It is very nice that they made up. But it is not good that they misunderstands each other again and again and try to make up. It means there is something wrong. Don't forgive for mistakes always.

My principle is 'once a cheat' 'always a cheat' I am not of a forgiving nature and if my partner cheated on me I wouldn't forgive them. I know this sounds hard, but how can you ever trust someone again if they have cheated on you? What's to stop them doing it again and again? Life is to short to be with someone that you cannot trust. Besides you will always have at the back of your mind the doubt that they are not where they should be! You may forgive, but you cannot easily forget!

I think both men and women will lie. There are some small lies and there are some big lies, there are some white lies and there are some bad lies. In relationship, both gender will be hurt by being cheated. If the lies are not serious ones. Couples tend to forgive each other later. I think whether i can forgive my partner or not depends on what kind of the lie he makes. If it is not serious, i think i can forgive him, anyway, almost everyone can make lies. But if the lies are serious, i mean if he has betray me, then i will leave him without any hesitation.

Cheating is wrong for me but i can tolerate someone doing it for me. I do forgive someone who cheat but it takes long time and years to pass before i can totally forget what have been done. Forget i mean is that i have no bitter feelings towards the other person. Leaving is the first move i am doing and no looking back until i accepted it and totally forgive the other person, trust isn't whole and its big issue so leaving the person is enough to forget and forgive later.

I will forgive him but I won't fully trust him again. If he wants to gain my full trust again. He has to prove that he deserves it first.

I don't have to imagine. I had a partner like that. After I found out I gave her an ultimatum: stop or I leave. She continued, I left. Now, it's a about twelve years without a woman. I'm not always happy about it but life goes on. I have lots of time to do other things, like volunteer work.

i took my time for this if her feel sorry with real heart then i forgive her because sometime human become good by learning with his mistake you also forgive her if you sure that she never cheated again and if you know her from many times .sometimes it is difficult to forgive some cheaters.

I think that the partner will be really hurt if the other half cheated. but it is also reason to really evaluate oneself. Am I lacking in qualities that were previously appreciated by my spouse? Am I taking the partner for granted and ignoring him? Life is a network of relationships that we share with others. we should always be careful never to hurt others and then when they leave us, blame them. At least for a moment try to stand in their shoes and if there is still any wrong, you can react but responsibly, with maturity.

I would be forgiven in some cases. only if love is strong and true I would forgive because love has no boundaries. if I cheat a few times I thought. Yet I think it all depends on the case and the situation. nice day!

Even if I forgive him I wouldn't be able to trust or love him like before and we would end up splitting. I find it very hard to trust someone after cheating on me.
