This article is saying Tiger Woods may of proposed to his Ex-Wife. Do you think if this article is true that it would be a good idea even with a cheating clause in the pre-nuputal? http://www.businessinsider.com/tiger-woods-asked-his-ex-wife-elin-nordegren-to-re-marry-him--enquirer-2013-1 I don't know that I've heard of any celebs divorcing and then re-marrying. I've only known one person divorcing and re-marrying the same person only to end up divorced again.

I would remarry one if the feeling is still stronger regardless of the cheating issue. Men are men, they are easy (most of them). Temptation is something they must fight not to get themselves into, it is very hard on them. I don't believe that there is a "perfect relationship" that has ever existed. You might say, "oh that never happened on my parents". How would u know, u didn't know every single thing that happened in the past.

That is true. One can look at their own or others parents and say to yourself how well they keep things going and strong over the years. Who knows how they survived the rocky points in their marriage as we wonder about the times we've had / will have with our spouses that are not picture perfect.

I think if i divorced someone i wouldnt remarry them - there was a reason i was unhappy enough to divorce them and often the reasons are more than just one when people get divorced. I wont say once a cheater always a cheater. People when they arent happy however do tend to look for more, for better, for an improvement on their situation

I think people also look for others who are more stimulating because they are new to them so there are lots of things to talk about and maybe a bit of a spark. Marriage takes work to keep things going, you can't just look to other pastures because things are boring, it is what you make of things.

I think it would be hard to trust him again and I don't know if a marriage cane stand something like that. My cousin divorced and years later remarried her first husband just to divorce again. Somehow I think the past does stay with you and sometimes gets in the way,

As Pat had said many of us don't forget the hurt that resulted from the first go around and even if we push it back in our memory it's still there questioning everything.

There are plenty of people who do remarry their ex, this is not specific for vips. I doubt a cheating clause will help, a cheater will cheat again. Personally I would not remarry any ex, no matter if we are divorced because of cheating or for an other reason.

I agree I don't think a clause would make a difference. Afterall as they say once a cheater always a cheater and I don't know many who'd allow their spouse to play around outside of tolerating things to keep a lifestyle. But it's not like she walked away with pennies in her settlement.

I wouldn't remarry someone I divorced because there was a reason why I divorced them and that doesn't stop them for doing it again to me. If they cheated on me to bad they are not coming back to me and trying to start a relationship and especially if we have kids together I wouldn't want to put them throw that two times in a row.

I agree about putting kids through more drama yet again if something happens and the relationship disolves again.

If he only cheated once then I might forgive him. But as far as I know, Tiger woods had been cheating to his wife ever since and not just once so they might get back together for a different reason aside from love. might be their children or for financial reasons..

I would agree I have your suspicions as well that there are other reasons perhaps the kids or money.

No way in Hell. Once the person cheats on me, he's out the door, and there will be no reconcilliation, no forgiveness, and I will not have to deal with him and his lying cheating ways ever again. He can rot in Hell for all I'm concerned, because he'll deserve it for chating.

Because it is the National Enquirer I don't believe that story, but you raise a good question. I don't know that I could. I mean he would have had to have shown me a complete change in his behavior. A heck of a lot of remorse would have had to be shown. And then if you remarried him, wouldn't there still be doubt in your mind? And that might result in driving him nuts. So, I don't know.

I agree! Heaven knows the "quality" of the people he was fooling with what you'd contract if you even went that far to sleep with him again. Yes I agree I'm sure she's been thru a boat load of mind games from this behavior.

As a woman whoes Hubby has cheated, I would say no. Women never forget and any time in the future when the marriage is stressed the subject reenters my mind. If he did it once will he do it again. Forgiveness is very difficult when you have felt betrayed.

That is true us ladies tend to remember alot and hold it over those whom have scored us when the opportunity comes along.

One time around that block would be enough for me. I may be missing something but I am not one to look back or ask for bad things again. As far as the news...anything is possible I guess. I sure wouldn't try it again though.

I don't think that I could marry someone again after they had cheated on me. Because it would be so hard to trust them ever again. Everytime I was with them I'd wonder if they were with someone else. So, it would never work out for me because of that and plus I would always think about that day that they cheated on me.

I suppose people can change, but I don't look for it to happen with the majority of people. After my ex husband divorced me he married 3 other times and then married his last wife twice. It didn't take cuz he just can't keep his pants zipped. I think that Tiger and his ex wife could make it if they both wanted it to work. It's about respecting the marriage they have.

I won't give him another chance to cheat on me. We might have memorable past, but that's it. I've learned to accept that and live with it, what else do you want?~ As for Tiger Woods, I've seen his apology video online. He looks upset, depressed but not much about the detail of his conversation with his wife. And I don't know much about this guy himself, so I dare not judge their marriage. Now that he has proposed, good luck with him. But I hate cheaters.

I don't know... if it was a simpler situation, where he fell for his secretary or something, I guess it might not be so bad. In this situation, I don't see how she could take him back. I don't keep up with celebrities of any kind, but I do remember the scandal his "affairs" caused. She would have to love him to the nth degree to have him back, I think.

The only reason I can think of for her re-marrying him is money and he doesn't have much of that since he lost most of his endorsements because of his atrocious behavior. Like someone else said, once a cheater always a cheater. As someone whose husband cheated, I can assure that he'll cheat again. Why does he want to put their child through that? Tiger Woods is a selfish, faithless pig and even more so if he wants a second chance to ruin the lives of his wife and child again.

Well.. this could be a couple of things. She could want to get back in the marriage for money. Half of his money isn't as good as all of his money, you know. It could be that she really does love him and only left in the first place out of hurt, anger, and public humiliation. Or it could be that she believes he could change and is hoping that he will. I don't think he will and I think their reunion wouldn't last.

For me there is no second chance for a cheater.
