could you forgive

[Gigabitch]

The tongue and the fingers will still be working

And hopefully the lesson will be learned. If they stray, they too will be slammed in tha car door.

And what to do you if the cheater is female?

Superglue her vagina shut. If she wants to retain the use of her other orifices, she'll make sure they don't receive any foreign visitors.

Sounds practical

I assume you mean physically unfaithful.For that, I could forgive.I wouldn't hate her or wish she was dead or want to hurt her.But the relationship would be over.If her desire for sex with another person(s) is stronger than her desire to have a relationship with me, then she can take her desire and get on with life.It's not hard to control yourself.And if for some reason she is done with me, isn't satisfied with me, wants out of the relationship, likes someone else, it really doesn't matter.Be an adult.Say something first.No excuse for being "unfaithful".It's really not hard.

If I was serious about the person? Yeah, they'd get another chance. But if I ever had reason to suspect that it was happening again, whether they admitted to anything or not, no amount of apologizing would get them /anywhere/.

Wow, that is pretty forgiving...and I mean that in a bad way. Someone is going to use you for that one day...hell I got ideas just reading it. Anyways, my answer is f*ck no.

They say that women are more likely to forgive a one night stand than men are. Men go nuts over physical cheating and women go nuts over emotional cheating.

Agree or disagree?

WTF is emotional cheating?

WTF is emotional cheating?

These days, its a psychologist's mortgage payment.

The idea describes someone who has a closer emotional relationship with someone other than their romantic partner. Becomes an issue when this is someone of the opposite sex & they become physically attracted to each other.

Emotional cheating w/a same-sex friend, or a relative (e.g. close siblings) doesn't count b/c of the lack of potential for a physical relationship.

Forgiving a cheater would depend on circumstance for me. Similar to Vash's comment. I also wouldn't forgive a BF for the reasons she said. Forgiving a spouse would depend on circumstance & intent. If you have been a total bitch (or bastard) to your partner for years & only screw them on their birthday, well, I would have to say you've set yourself up for the situation. If this were a habit of a spouse & they refuse to try to address the relationship issues, then I wouldn't. In the end, sex is just sex. Its the trust issues that are important.

Its weird how a lot of ppl won't admit that nothing happens in a vacuum & won't take responsibility for their part in these types of situations.

BTW, I strongly suggest that those thinking about getting married, or being in a committed LTR have the conversation about 'what if one of us was considering cheating' before it happens. You can decide that, if that situation arises, that you will go to your partner and tell them you are having these thoughts before the situation gets out of control.

FWIW

I would feel exactly the same way. Something precious would be broken.

i dont understand people who can cheat. but then again you can never understand anything until you've experienced it
