If your spouse cheated on you, can you eventually forgive them? How long does it take for the pain to deminish?

You need to ask yourself a couple of serious questions. 1. Do you think that he will cheat again? 2. Do you trust him? 3. Are you willing to stay with him becasue of the kids? 4.Are you willing to sacriface your happiness to try and keep your marriage together?

thanks for your advice. this is such a hard situation for me and i would rather get advice from strangers than try to have to explain this to my friends.

I would like to try and think that i will be able to forgive and forget the once, it will take time, Everyone can make mistakes, but i am defently sure that i would not be able to forgive if he cheated on me the 2nd time, I guess it will take a lot of talking and a lot of understanding from him for you to start to get over from this, This does mean a lot of hard work but i am sure that you feel that he is worth it good luck

its so hard. sometimes i can be strong and other times i feel like just leaving. he kept saying it was a mistake and it will never happen again. i dont know how much of that i can believe. i trust people too easily but once they break it, i tend not to forgive. its such a hard situation.
