Can can you forgive your partner for cheating especially when it was happy and nothing bad was happening ?

Question

in the relationship for them to stray?

Answer 1

If you are female and talking about a guy, then yes, it is his biological make up that makes it happen, not all do, but it is man's mission to make as many offspring..

Answer 2

Well it all depends our perception of cheating. I would say if done with no honesty in a relationship, then it was happy in a one sided kind of way. Something is clearly lacking. someone does not wake up cheats because everything is fine with my wife or husband. I am a very forgiving person, and the only thing that would upset me is dishonesty.

Answer 3

Is this the same guy as in the question about his ex?

Answer 4

you can forgive but never forget

Answer 5

I think it depends on why they did it and if you think you can work through it, that's if you both wanted to in the first place.

On the other hand, if this has happened before, then no I don't think you can.

Answer 6

you don't if he does it once he will do it again

Answer 7

From personal experience, dont go back...ever! They'll only do it again. They think that if they're forgiven once they can be forgiven a million times!

Answer 8

no

would your partner have forgiven you?

Answer 9

I forgave a partner for it before and it was never the same after it. I became paranoid and untrusting and it nearly killed me.

If I caught someone doing it now Id dump them instantly

Answer 10

thats tricky,i think everybody desreves a second chance in life we all make mistakes,if they do it a second time then i would say walk away,ppl cheat for many different reasons and we all think our realtionship is happy etc till something happens sometimes when u look deeper there is always a root cause to it maybe that person wasnt really happy but just didnt show it,i know this because ive seen many realtionships were one minute they are together and the next they are not and then they realised this person was unhappy etc its all down to u at the end of the day if u forgive him will u become insecure and watch his everymovment? its more likely u will and then maybe ur realtionship will have more strain on it and u will never forget and everytime that person upsets u the more likely ur going to end up saying (do u remember what u did to me?)  

Answer 11

i would forgive them but i wouldnt be with them any more.

Answer 12

Cheating is cheating, i'd forgive but never take them back.

Answer 13

for somebody to cheat in a relationship something isn't right

especially for a woman to cheat, she isnt getting anything from the man

but the same with a bloke, altho some guys are just plain and nasty players who like to play women, but some men are genuine husbands.partners/boyfriends etc who have just made a genuine mistake

Answer 14

Go ahead and forgive them Seventy times Seven.... But!

Make sure that you're not sending them the wrong message.

I'm saying that if someone cheats on you, and they say sorry - they may just be sorry because they got caught.  Now you could be giving them another chance to do it again (they'll be more careful this time and keep the affair more secret)

Does that make sense to you? Anyway, that's just my humble opinion.

Furthermore, please do forgive if they're truly worth it.
