Well...ok...your poll is flawed.
But I can see myself forgiving a cheat if
a) I truely loved them
b) it was a ONE OFF
c) there was a reason for their actions.

EDIT: This would have to be a long-term partner
I could never see my girlfriend cheating on me with another man :s-smilie:

But if that WAS to happen, I don't think that I could take her back ;no; Mainly because me and her are always so honest and trusting to eachother. To be regardless of my feelings is one thing, but to act upon an action which she knows would hurt me severely is another.

Being drunk is another thing. Then it would be the person she had sex withs fault.
I would never forgive.
Am always forgiving. Can't ever find it within myself to hold grudges or get angry for more than a short moment about something someone does to me...

Is the second from last option meant to be 'female'?

Probably
I said i could possibly in the poll, but i'm not sure in reality. It depends really, but i'm certain my girlfriend wouldn't cheat on me, so at the moment i won't be in that situation.

Yes, sorry for the mistake. Will try and amend it.

Never ever Trevor.
I said might because I suppose it is a possibility, but only in an exceptional circumstance that I have trouble envisaging clearly at the moment.

Depends on whether she was honest about it... to be fair though the trust would never be there again!!

yes I would stay with them, and make their life as annoying as possible, I'll be the nightmare gf, then I'll cheat on them with someone else and break their heart.

You can't just let them off that easy can you?

I don't really know to honest. I don't think anyone who hasn't been cheated on can really say what they would do.
