Could you or have you ever forgiven your SO for cheating on you if they swore they would never do it again? Just wondering?

This already happened to me once. I ended the relationship and never looked back. I felt that, by cheating, he showed a blatant disregard for my health and safety. I had to be tested for every disease under the sun, and I sent him the bill.

I think someone who cheats once will cheat again, and that's stress and worry I wouldn't need in my life. I could probably maintain a relationship of some type with my husband if he cheated on me, but I would not want him for my life partner any longer.

HELL NO!!!!

There is no way I could ever forgive cheating--that is a complete deal breaker for me.

NO because of how my relationship is. My partner is already allowed to have sex with another women, so cheating would mean he is hiding something from me. So, that would mean our relationship isn't what I thought it would be and it's time to move on.

I don't know that I could recover from my trust being betrayed.

I believe it depends on the issue at hand. Cheating is not always clear cut, and there's always an underlying issue as to why the person did it. I think counseling can go a long way in helping couples overcome cheating. If both people are willing to work at the relationship, and overcome the issues at hand in the relationship then really its no one else's concern.

trust would be broken for me & I wouldn't be able to trust anything he said...and, when we do something the first time, it makes it easier to do it again & again &...

I'm not the type who can just forgive someone and move on. If my SO were to cheat, it would take a long time and a lot of work for them to regain my trust.

Been there done that and they went back to cheating! I left I can't say I never looked back though cause I am still left wondering what I did wrong for them to cheat. I mean I did EVERYTHING for them and still was cheated on.

What everyone else said. I decided even before I started dating that if a guy ever cheated on me, it would be the end. Thankfully I haven't been in that position.

Nope, I dropped him like the sack of garbage that he was. He was a liar and just plain sucked at communicating. I am still pissed about how much time I wasted on him.

I've been there too, before I met my hubby. The ex bf was a total douchebag!!!

I understand that circumstances and issues within a relationship can make all the difference in the world as to how infidelity would be dealt with...

That said, specifically regarding my marriage, I wouldn't be able to forgive my husband if he cheated. Our marriage is happy not troubled, things have gone smoothly and lovingly throughout our entire relationship so finding out that he's cheating would be absolutely devastating for me.

I really think that I would, but you never really know until it happens.
