you'll never forget it will you?

even if you really want to be with that person?
are you speaking from experience here?

Some experience, just that you'll be reminded of it a lot. But if youre reallly close to them I dunno, in my case it was like after a month of going out together. I didn't wanna carry on, but I dunno how you feel.

You maybe able to carry on with them, but forgiving them will be a lot harder.

Just do what you feel is right

Dont really know anything about the situation. But a standard cheat in a standard 6 month relationship is a bit difficult to get over.

i know, it does make you kinda paranoid...
essentially what Im trying to say is...how do you know when its gone to far? what is the breaking point for a relationship?

Whatever you decide.

I could possibly find it in myself to forgive once.

I would think if they did it once, they'll do it again and find it hard to trust him. But I think it depends on the relationship and circumstances, I think in some cases it shows strength of a relationship if a couple can get back on track after a big blow.

I'd get over it easily, but I would never forgive.

Your call really.
Only you can judge how far is too far, or the depth of your feeling for this guy.
I had one guy back after he cheated on me, it didn't last long after that, and he was really really sorry and genuine with it. I couldn't forgive him, guess it would take a better person than me!

I can't really say as I've never been cheated on. If the relationship is strong, I think the two can get over it. But I don't think I could forgive someone who cheated on me.

Hi there, I assume that, unfortunately, you are the one that has been cheated on - I'm sorry that this has happened to you, I really am. I have been cheated on and it is terrible, it makes you feel utterly and completely betrayed and, in my case, I never forgave the person, I ended the relationship and moved on and have never been in touch with the person in question.

It is a betrayal of trust and that can never be repaired nor forgiven - what is to say that they will never do it again?

As difficult as it may be now, move on and forget the person - above all do not forgive them; trust is a very important part of a relationship and it cannot be treated with such contempt as cheating on someone - it is their loss and you have nothing to feel bad about. They are to blame entirely.

Whoever they are, they are not worth it.

Hope this helps.

I would never forgive any girl who cheated on me.

My ex boyfriend cheated on me (he kissed another girl), and to be honest i could never truly forgive him. I trusted him so much and for him to do that killed me! I gave it another go (i broke up with him after i found out), but depsite him saying sorry and showing how much he "loved me", i couldnt let it go! If we had an argument i would constantly bring it up because it subconciously plays on your mind! We broke up in March and to be honest im so much happier, i dont have to worry whether or not hes going to hurt me anymore because he isnt there to upset me!

This is it you let them get away with it and forgive them they will then think they have got away with it and will probably do it again and again until they do finally get dumped.

I agree with that. If he does it once he will do it again unless you do something about it.

There is also the other fact that whenever you looked at him, could you forget the fact that he hurt you and cheated on you? I mean i dont want to get you down but why did he cheat on you? Either he was bored, or didnt love you enough. Eitherway you deserve better and hence should leave him

Either being bored not loving your girlfriend no more is no excuse to cheat, but yeah thats the excuse they use, obviously they cannot be bothered to communicate to work it out.

There is no excuse for cheating IMO. No valid excuse anyway. Its just someone who doesnt have the balls to break up with their partner
