Yes... but it depends on the reason why they cheated. I know of a few men/women who cheated and they regretted it so much that they never did it again (that I know of), and I also know of others who swore they'd change and never bothered making an effort.
They have to be willing to do whatever it takes to win back your trust, though.
I voted no, because in most cases, cheaters don't change. I know people who've never been faithful, they say they'll change when the "right" one comes along, but it's just an excuse. Now, just because I've yet to meet someone who has cheated suddenly become faithful, it doesn't mean they don't exist. Some people do in fact change, but those are rare and in my opinion, it's better to err on the side of caution and assume he won't change.
Possible, yes. Likely, no.
Cheating is, in my opinion, about one of two things. One is desperation. The other is entitlement.
I believe people who have cheated out of desperation (by which I mean feeling trapped in a desperately unhappy situation) can change.
I don't believe people who cheat out of entitlement can.
I think it depends what the individual views as cheating and the degree of it. I MIGHT be able to get over my guy kissing someone, but if he's creepin' and sleepin' around then he can bugger off. I don't trust people easily so it takes a while to let people into my life and once that trust is broken then I have no use for that person in my life.
Yeah, but don't take his word. Let him show it.
If they were young/ under influence of alcohol, that sort of thing, and they're older and haven't cheated now, good indicator they have changed. But if they just keep saying how they won't cheat again, don't even bother.
Ask a farmer what they do to their dogs after they kill one of their chickens. It's very sad, but it's either that, or never have chickens. The dogs can't stop.
I would say 80-90% of the time... no. They will almost for sure do it again but I know there are exceptions and some men will deeply regret what they did and go will make sure they never put themselves in a situation where they would cheat on you. Personally, I wouldn't trust them again and I know I would never take back or stay with a cheater.
If you want a man who doesn't cheat, look for a man who lacks sex drive or a man who can't get any other girls to have sex with him. Pretty much all normal men either cheat, or want to cheat and would cheat if they had the opportunity. It's built into our DNA based on millions of years of evolution.
My personal opinion is once a cheater always a cheater. I don’t mean that in the sense of every relationship but in the relationship in which they cheated. I believe perhaps a very very small fraction could stop IF the issue (s) which caused them to cheat are resolved BUT people cheat because they are unhappy. And no matter how hard you try, you cannot make someone else happy. So cheating isn’t on you (the victim), the problem (s) lie within the cheater
Yes it is possible, but it is pretty rare. If I were you, I will not go for a cheater, especially if it's a guy. Guys tend to cheat because they can get away with it. They don't care about what the girl thinks. I am sure you are asking this question, and the same goes for most girls who wonder this, is because you and all those girls are into the cheating bad boys. Well news flash, especially if it's a cheating bad boy, more or less they won't change. They will cheat on you.
They simply can't handle monogamy... It might sound like a cliche but once a cheater always a cheater. Some of us are not fit for committed relationships and are not very likely to ever change our ways
Would age change that?
Hard to say. I could only speak from personal experience. Either way I'd say it's a big no... But that's just my opinion
Maybe, maybe not, but I would NEVER date a girl who cheated on her previous boyfriend, far to much chance I'd just be setting myself up for the inevitable. Nope, I want to a girlfriend who would be loyal to me alone, just as I would be loyal to only her.
Loyalty seems to be in extremely short supply these days.
Too many people interesting in open relationships, make no sense to me at ALL!
The chances are slim, in my opinion. I know people can change for the better but it doesn't happen more than it does. Usually for me, I find the lack of trust is hard to overcome especially depending on the circumstances of the situation and the length of the lies.
If a guy cheated once specially if u were lovely with him and gave him everything he will cheat for ever and the worst part he won't tell
Usally loyal guys are loyal always and cheaters are cheaters always and its really rare other than this some guys have intense desire to try other girls always and they won't get over it even if they want its like stopping having sex noway around it
Sorry, but once someone cheats how can you ever truly believe them when they tell you that they love you.
Loving someone is about making their feelings, wants, needs, and desires as equal as yours. Once they cheat, they instantly show you that deep down they only truly care about them selves and what they want and that you only come second to that.
Once a cheater, always a cheater!
Yes they can, but it is freaking hard. Cheating is usually the last step in a long line of behavior that you should never do in a committed relationship. The physical cheating is often preceded by emotional cheating first.
A cheater can turn that around and become devoted, but it usually takes a long time and a lot of therapy. For both of them.
I had an ex boyfriend who cheated on me.
When it was happening I was upset and it didn’t help that the girls he previously dated told me they had the same situation. That was when I was in highschool. 6years later, I’m going to college with this guy now, and my friend told me about how he recently cheated on his current girlfriend.
Basically no.
Anything is possible like monkeys flying out of my butt. This question goes both ways about men and women. I dated a woman that would say about others "once a cheater always a cheater." She was right. She cheated on me after 4 years together. At times I wonder how many others she was cheating on me with.
It’s also possible for me to squeeze water from a rock, while pigs are flying by. All while time is waiting for me again, so I won’t be late for work.
Mark 9:23 KJV
And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
There is an old saying out there. "If a man marries his mistress, he'll have to find a new mistress." It comes partly from the concept that once someone has cheated they will be tempted to again. Honestly, if a guy cheats and the girl takes him back, in the back of her mind will always be the seed of mistrust. "Will he do it again?"
