I am just curious. I have been cheated once and I was freaking out about it. Though I gave him another chance. But people says cheaters will remain as cheaters. Is that really true? What can you say about this? Do you agree or disagree? Why?

No, I think people can change. I think most people wrong because intervenes the monotony. Different cases, may be many reasons for that was wrong. Only you can really know if he can done again, I right?

I've been on both sides of this and all I can say is that it completely depends on the events leading up to the incident. Trust becomes a huge issue when someone steps outside of the relationship and that in itself is why second chances don't usually pan out the way we would like. If the incident was a moment of weakness or relationship doubt then there is a chance that it won't happen again. But if the incident happened out of retribution (argument or what have you) then a second chance only opens the door to a repeat offense. In the big scheme of life what is true for others isn't necessarily true for all. Giving someone who has cheated another chance is a personal choice. Only you know what's right for you.

Hi staysee! Thanks for sharing. I totally agree with you. The cheating happened because of weakness or relationship doubt that you were talking and I trust him that he wont do it again. And chances will be given to people who deserves for it

well, i have been cheated several times in my life but i still give cheaters a chance to proved that any how, there's a part of them that they do not cheat and that they spend their own efforts. But most of the time, I don't turn my back to them since my trust with them is no longer the same. From 100%...51% has been remove. and I really hate cheaters since from the beginning.

Not always. If the person cheats it's still bad but sometimes there are reasons ( typically not good ones) besides the fact they just wanted someone new. Some people just like the thrill of cheating so they won't change. Others are lacking something and they find it in someone else. It doesn't make it right. I think they're less likely to cheat again.
