Would you forgive your partner if they cheated?

[Anonymous]

if you were with your parent for a year and you found out they had cheated, would you leave? would it make a difference if they seemed genuinely remorseful?

I was cheated on twice, and I left both times.
the first time was my exwife.
I came home early, I thought something was going on, she was with him, he was backing up in the closet trying to put his pants on.
she asked waht are you doing here, to which I replied I used to live here.
after the diviece I hadn't seen or heard from her for over 20 years.
Then out of the blue she called me.
We talked a lot, and now are friends.
AAnother one was cheating on me so I had enough and left as well.
It might have been about a year and she stopped in my store and she wanted to get back together, but I wanted to, I just didn't think I could, and she would have had to admit what she had done.
I haven't seen her since.

We would live separately after that. I would tell her lying cheating ass that we need space to think about things. Then she would get demoted from wife to sex buddy. I'm not living with her, buying her gifts all year long, and loving her after getting betrayed. She showed me my value to her so I'm not gonna value her either. I would find someone else slowly but surely.

For "just" a year? Yes, I would leave. End it. Even if they were or seemed remorseful. I'd probably forgive them if that's what they asked for, but I'd still end it and move on.

Now if it were my marriage of 23 years? I wouldn't leave that. But in the case of a 1 year relationship? Yes, leave.

I left my ex when she cheated.

I didn't give a shit if she was remorseful, or not. Cheating is an unforgivable betrayal, and there is no coming back from that. The minute it happened was the minute our relationship was over.

I think there will always be the stigma associated with the person cheating in the first place. I would be hesitant to forgive them no matter how remorseful they are, as it may seem like permission to go back out and do it again.

I don't understand why the cheater doesn't ever bring up their concerns about their current relationship before getting that far out of it. Bad communication? Or do they really not want to be where they are in life?

If it was with other girl then maybe, if it was with guy then no way, I don't forgive hos.

[churbleburble78]

no, otherwise you are reinforcing that it's ok to cheat! teach them a lesson

Yes, we'd be done as partners of course. But I'd forgive them.

[billmunch]

Yes, no problem.

Maybe, I have and I haven't.
