  1. It largely depends on the couple but it takes someone with the capacity to carry the heavy burdens coming from understanding the magnitude of imperfection of both people and things in this lifetime... for most people and for myself i'd say No..  


  2. no never. trust & love are the foundations of such relations. if they are broken what do you do with the ruins

  3. forgive?  yes, I could depending on the circumstances.  I strongly do NOT believe the maxim of ,"once a cheater always a cheater." Not everything is as cut + dry as we'd like to hope. however, for a random mention about the sexes perception of the subject, I think men are VERY territorial and it would be harder for them to work w/ a woman who cheated on them.

    "Normal" is a very loaded word.  No, it will never be the same, I assume, but just like everything else time will heal the wounds.  

    People can repent, change their ways and be truly sorry.  I would give my husband a chance and would hope he could do the same for me if we find ourselves in that heartbreaking, messed up situation.  On the other hand I'd just really NOT WANT TO know if given the option.  ignorance is bliss when applied to so many experiences and this would definitely be one of them.  I'd be so heartbroken.  People need to keep in mind to only tell ppl. what they can handle!

  4. I agree, once a cheat, always a cheat

    sorry

  5. NO, i never could, mainly because the trust would be gone.

  6. no.

  7. i can forgive but i cant forget  

  8. no

  9. No! It happened with me and when he came to apologize i tried to forgive him cuz i loved him but i couldn't! i couldn't even stand looking at him.

  10. A partner who does not link s*x with marriage  is untrustworthy in marriage.

  11. no way .

    a partner's infidelity would break my heart .

    there is no glue to repair a broken heart !

    i hope i would be spared such an experience .
