Infidelity

for me it's just a part of a relationship. it's something that people gets into once in a while. and it's a mistake though. but the important thing is, you learn from that mistake and make up for the relationship then forgive and forget comes in.

The way to restore trust, if the other person is even willing to try it, is to be sincerely sorry, and to not repeat the behavior ever again. Saying sorry is only meaningful if you back it up with a change in behavior.

Putting your trust in a person is very crutial to a sound relationship. Infidelity should causes extreme emotional pain, anger, distrust, anxiety, guilt, shame. In some instances, atleast in the part of the perpatrator there isn't. SOme feel okay with it and don't feel badly at all. That is sad.

That's true. After all, to build any relationship you need trust. Not everything can be handed out on a contract. You just have to go with your gut feel, and you have to provide the same positive gut feel to the other party. Although with regard to the affair being the end of everything, I suppose not. I do believe that if someone in a relationship has an affair, it's either they were not ready for the present relationship, or they're over the present relationship, and want something different. If that's the case, then let each other be. Get it out of the system. Deal with the immaturity or deal with the changes. Endings don't necessarily have to be bad, they don't necessarily have to be destructive. The kind of separation that results from an affair may even strengthen your relationship. It may also help you realize that you haven't met the person for you.

It's true. It's a sad thought that some individuals who are in a relationship would even think of going on a side trip of their romantic journey just to satisfy their selfish pleasures. As much as you trust that person, if he/she breaks that trust then you're ruined, and it's so much harder to get back up.

hi:) yes trust has a big role in a relationship, without that I think the relationship wont work, actually I think that's the most important foundation, ie;I have a friend that caught her boyfriend dating someone else, even if she loves her boyfriend they broke up after a week after she found out, because she said she felt paranoid everytime her boyfriend is not on her watch, because of what she found out.

How I see it, don't do it. If you are bored with the relationship you are in, instead of cheating on that person, just leave them, break up with them. If I was in a relationship that I didn't want to be in anymore, then I would just leave that person.

trust and respect, the most vital elements in a relationship, even if love goes down on its intensity. But sometimes we can't control {i guess on my part] temptations, one should have a strong conviction of what one wants in a relationship and the so-called constant guard of "conscience" would make us realize what is the right thing to do.

Honesty,respect ,commitment and true feelings are essential to a strong and lasting relationship. I believe that being married and/or having children is a reason to continue a relationship.I guess when one of them losses one of these essentials result to the end of a relationship.
