Yes, I could forgive.

BUT, I would still leave him.

I never would and there would not even be a discussion. If my husband ever did such a thing, he knows that he would be living in a van down by the river.

Even without all the other things I would not forgive my partner if she cheated. There just is no justifiable reason to cheat. Period.

Absolutely NOT !!!!!! Only one chance with me and you're gone. Once a cheater ALWAYS a cheater.

My ex cheated on me and left me for another woman. Me and our son felt abandoned due to we had no place to go and I hadn't worked in years and didn't know how to drive. I got a place of my own learned how to drive and have a good job working for the county I live in. I forgave him for cheating due to I became a better person. I didn't go back to him nor did he want to go back. I cannot forgive him for all the things he said to his family and to some people we both knew. He told them I was crazy and told them some of my past that I had no control of but was ashamed of.


Brat
yes i could forgive them, but i wouldnt stay with them. and forgiving takes time.


♥lovinglife♥
you what i've learned? unless you have been in this situation you cant answer the question. everything changes when your are actually in the situation and trying to deal.


practice_what_u_preach
no no no especially since they put my health at risk that is so selfish and I can't imagine who would forgive this!


.
I could forgive and I probably would and try to work through it despite the worst that could happen. Now it would take many many years to rebuild the trust, but I am willing to give the marriage a second try because I cannot imagine my life without my husband. We have discussed this before and he's never cheated on me and I have never cheated on him, but both of us are on the same page that we would always give the marriage a second chance no matter what.

Valerie says it best


Shlane
no...the person purpsely cheated, he didnt do the rest purposely but those are the consequences...if he contracted those disease dont whatever sorry for him, but if he gave anything to me,,, he better run!

to your question No i wouldnt forgive but i would forget him...people seem to think that not forgiving means to seek revenge or having hatred towards the person, it's not true.

I would forgive them, and forget them.


Man in Black
I believe that I could. It would take a lot for me to stop loving my wife. She has been too good to me over the years, and I hope she would forgive me if I did something stupid.

I notice that someone thinks that HIV is an absolute death sentence. Look how long Magic Johnson has been around since his diagnosis. Its a nasty virus to be infected with, but with modern treatments its has become a chronic disease rather than a death sentence.

You have to forgive for your own sake, not theirs. That being said, I could forgive for any of the above, but I don't know if the relationship would continue.


Amy
To me, I personally thought about this. If someone that I loved or someone I was with cheated on me, I would forgive them but I don't think I'll ever forget what he's done. There, I would leave him. Knowing I'll never forget what happened. Plus the fact that one of those 3 reasons happened, I would never want to get back with him. So, girl. You would be able to forgive but you'll never forget. Better off without him.


dee18301
well it depends on you..2nd chances are up to you..you would have to start all over again but play ur cards right...


SFK
No, no, and no. Once trust is broken, you can never fully rebuild it again. I'd be spending everyday wondering if he was out cheating. I would move on and find someone better.


anoldmick
Perhaps.


Lovely
YES. I would forgive them. Our 'partnered' relationship would end however, especially for all the occurences you put up!


Sandy Sandals
I could forgive them (unless I contracted HIV), I just wouldn't stick around.


Rabbit
no.


bluegrass
No I would not be able to forgive my partner for cheating. Using part or your example above with a twist. What if he did cheat and contracted HIV and continued sleeping with me and then I became pregnant. Here I would be thinking everything is fine until he has to tell me the horrible news that I need to be tested and then if I contracted it could have passed it in to my child. Not to mention normally if you cheat once you can do it again and again....

hell no!
i would forget about it eventually but i wouldnt go back to her an say, "i forgive you."


Jordan F

stef33

smileyone
Yes i would forgive. eventually..... so i could move forward with my life (id leave them)
But... id never forget!!
