It would have to be just once for me. I could imagine that I wouldn't want to end it, and so I'd continue the relationship. But I'd never be able to truly forgive them and the relationship would be completely destroyed, so I'd be trying in vain to continue it. It would be better for me to just end it. I can imagine not being strong enough to do that though, at least not right away.
I'm not sure. I'd love to say that once and they're gone, but I think when it actually happens to you, it might not be so black and white.
My husband and I have built a really great life together and have a lot of young children. If he made one stupid mistake, admitted it to me without me having any other way of finding out (so no fear of being smoked out eventually), and seemed truly sorry then I would probably be willing to try and make it work for the sake of our family.
However, it's important to say that trying to make it work is, as it says, really just trying. I can try as much as I like, but it might be the case that I am never able to trust him again. If that's how things were playing out then I would end it. No sense in living an unhappy life.
I would end it if they cheated only once. They broke my trust, and if I forgive them, they would likely see it as a green light to do it again.
One time it's over cause you always be thinking and imagine about your partner be pleasure by someone else.it will eat you up inside and try to talk with them and they would say it was nothing!! Just saying
Depends. How much I care for them and how I find out. If they tell me abd it was a one time thing. And depending why they did it I might give then a second chance. If it happens again doesn't matter the reason it's over
Cheating once is more than enough! There's no reason to keep a cheater around. Seriously, if someone betrays me my love for the person just straight up dies.
Once. No matter how much I love the guy I lose my respect for him not having any respect for me or concern for my emotions. That's not something I need in my life. Not to mention i'm pretty easy to piss off and I cut people off for far less.
Honestly, just once. If I stayed with them, I'd just be on edge all the time wondering if they'll do it again since I obviously can't trust them anymore. XD
Depends on the severity of the cheating.
For e.g.:
If it was just one time and if they are truly sincere that they didn't mean to do it I'll let it slide once, if they did it multiple times then I will have 0 choice but to break up with them because I can see that they have lost my trust for them.
Just once for cheating. However if I consented to them doing it like a kind of swinger of cuckold thing that could be fun to use it when we next have sex
I think I would try my hardest to get over it. But I’m a pretty jealous person when it comes to sex.
I is still cheating if I egged him on to do it? I'm sorry but having a STUD for a man is a turn on. As long as he comes home to me and still has the energy to please me I'm all for a cheating man. I wish mine would
Multiple, been there, done that, got the t-shirt.
Until it happens and all the varying factors are considered you never know. I would have thought I was a one time person, however you have to many factors that come to play.
How much do you really love this person, kids, excuse, where, when, and why. Maybe even with who, as well as promise of it won't happen again or change.
Personal experience don't believe the promises. Just have to ask yourself, can I or do I want to live with this if it continues. Are you open to a third wheel to keep this relationship.
If you don't have a lot of ties then I say cut a run.
Once with a man would be the end. If she cheated with a gay woman, it would depend. She would have to be happy with a friends with benefits arrangement once every two or three months. Any negative overtones would terminate things fairly fast.
The issue is a lot more complex than that.
The key issue is why did the cheating occur, and under what circumstances; and what is the likelyhood of it happening again.
Someone in a real survival situation who pairs up (and paring up has been shown to increase the chances of survival) is a totally different situation; that someone with a caring loving and available wife who is hitting on certain woman for ego satisfaction.
Other situations that can usually be easily forgiven:
1) Someone who is a bit tipsy and goes to bed - and another female crawls into his bed and he does not realize its not his wife. This actually happens, and I've had ladies crawl into my bed when traveling - and kicked all of them out because I realized who they were (most of these occurred before I was married - but I often had an active GF).
2) Certain medications can induce conditions leading to a desire for frequent sex. There is a rather famous case where a married Olympic Athlete became a Las Vegas call girl because she was put on a medication that gave her insatiable sex drive with her medical conditions. The Dr. had their medical license suspended for some years in that case as the medication warned about that side effect for people with her condition. Now that she is off that medication she is back with her husband and all is forgiven (except the Dr involved).
A lot of people leave themselves open to a fantisized "right" situation that when they find themselves in it that carry it out without any real thought; only to realize with horror later on what they did. Those are also easy to correct from occurring again; and can be forgiven.
There are other situations where its easy to prevent it from occurring again - if the personae wants too.
So it all depends on why it happened, under what situation, how likely is it to occur again, and how the person feels about the situation.
A lot of stuff can be forgiven for the right situations.
Other stuff cannot (just adding notches to their belt, ego or control driven, etc.)
There may be practical things as well: Maintaining the marriage or partnership may have real life financial and living condition advantages. Sometimes, compromises are developed (its not what you would desire; but, you have no better options - at least for now).
