What are you going to do if you found out that your love one is cheating you? And when you found out that it's true and tells you that it's just for fun and explain everything to you and tells you that they love you are you still willing to forgive them and give them another chance or you are going to let him/her go?

I would really have to think about that one. Right now in my case my wife and I are not doing it so if she is doing it with another guy then I would be very upset and might leave her but I have to think about the kids that we have and what I would be loosing if we broke up. I hope that she is not cheating on me and right now I dont have any proof that she is.

having a family is much different than having a boy-girl relationship.. you should forgive her no matter what.. for the sake of your kids.. and you should try to talk to her and must she must understand what's sin she've done.. i think.. having a family have a greater responsibilities and obligations after all..

In this case, it depends on how much you love him or her. If you are really love this person you can forgive him or her if this is a first time. But if this is not first time, I think you better say good bye to him or her. Today you hurt a bit but if you hold, tomorrow you will hurt more and it will never end.

I was once cheated by my boyfriend long time ago but until now, we're still happy together. I believe we all commit mistakes; what is important is that we learn from them. It's innate for people to be sinners. Nobody is perfect and with that, everybody deserves a second chance. I know it's never easy to just simply forgive and forget, especially, when you were badly hurt but at least, we all must try. I've been in a situation when he cheated me and it seemed like I was deeply broken into pieces. I couldn't give him up easily because I truly love him so I decided to give him another chance to prove to himself and to me that it was just one of his mistakes in life. So far, after that, he never cheated on me again and I am hoping he will never do it again for I no longer know what to feel if in case he will do it again.

I will move on. Though he deserves a second chance, but this is not the way to buy it from me. If he really loves and cares about my feelings, he should not be having fun out there. And if he's not caught, will he end that 'fun' out there? As time drags on, I might end up on the 'fun' side when he commits himself to her instead. Even he gives up on this 'fun', he's bound to start a new one because he knew the excitement it brings him and being men, they like to count on experience to avoid being caught again. As such, why should I hold on? It's not fair to me.

One cannot really say what they would do until they have gone through this situation. I have lived it and I have given the person another chance. People have affairs for a variety of reasons. Some just fear intimacy and when they see they are feeling a great deal of love for someone they will do anything to destroy it so they don't have to face the intimacy. Others feel they aren't good enough for the love of their lives so they destroy what they have with them. Some just like the thrill of cheating and others are just jerks and will never change. If you are with someone who has cheated you have to find out what type of 'cheater' they are. If they are one that will never change then you must walk away. But if there is a chance to save the relationship you should try, especially if you have a great deal of time invested in it.

it's depend oh how much love you have for him... if you know you can't live without him... then you should give him another chance BUT tell him that it would not be easy.. he should prove something.. and if it will happen again.. eventhough you really love him.. you'll break with him totally... remember, he's only a human.. can commit mistakes.. but your human too so that if you'll hurt again for the same reason.. you should let go of him no matter what...

Yes you are right. It depends upon the situation and for me it's better to think of it hard before doing or deciding.

If the commitment to each other is still real, then i would do everything i could to hold on to the relationship. ifd the commitment is fading, it is time to move on.

It's natural to want to confide in somebody about your love's affair or rally to your friends and family to your side, but be very cautious about who you tell. The female friend you confide in could turn out to be the other woman. Exercise caution who you tell about your husband/wife's affair.

it all depends to you.think first before you act. sometimes we just have to think things through or talk things with our partner. if we really loved a person,we'll see to it that we know what is up to them.what do they really feel. and learn to trust each other as well. i have not been in the situation as of now.well,maybe i did trust my boyfriend back then.it's just that i don't have feelings for him anymore that's why we end up. we all have different views in life and we are the ones who really know what makes us happy. just follow your heart...

That has happened to me and I chose to let go. Not immediately because I wanted him to suffer afterward. I didn't tell him that I wanted to breakup, but when he knew, he kept on chasing after me. He still is now, I don't care at all. =D I know it's evil, but it's my bittersweet revenge! ;)

First, I am going to hit him full force on his face! He cheated and I am faithful. The issue of forgiving is another story. But when you love someone, remember that Love is patient, love is kind, love is generous, it does not envy, it does not boast nor record a wrong record. You must learn first how to forgive than regret everything that makes you happy. But also, consider that love is give and take relationship that means you should work on your relationship hanging on with each other and caring for the relationship you build and take care of each others love. Breaking up with him is a case of lost of respect and affection..

I have been in this situation too many times and it comes to a point in your life that you just can't take it more. So if ever it happens with a new lover, I would leave him on the stop as how many times do you forgive the person. As for a lover to say yes I cheated but I still love you, is totally wrong because if they loved me they would never cheat. I would never do this to any one. Why on earth do they just not leave their lover and go on with their happy cheating instead of hurting their lover who does not deserve it no matter what.

If the person I love cheated on me, I would leave them. Of course I will be sad since I do love them, but it's pretty messed up for cheating on me. So I would leave them even when it's going to be hard. Plus there are plenty of fishes out there that aren't cheaters and will love and respect you.
