I can't forgive infidelity and I won't forgive it. Some people will say let them just forgive or work through it because kids are involved but personally I can't look at my partner with that kind of love, I can't see him the way I used to see him. I know I can't cheat, so why will you cheat on me and say it's a mistake or something and expect me to forgive you.
When someone cheats, they show they don't respect the relationship, they don't respect you. Because if truly you love that person as you claim and respect your relationship with that person, you won't cheat, you won't hurt them the way you did. Staying with someone who cheated will only make me angry, bitter and unhappy, so the best thing to do for myself is walk away.
Infidelity changes people, it changes the love and trust in that relationship. It turns it into pain. We all deserve a partner who chooses us no matter the temptation, pressure and circumstances around.
Infidelity means being unfaithful to someone you love and promise to respect. In a relationship, whether marriage or dating, both people are supposed to be honest and loyal to each other. When one person cheats or gives their attention, body, or heart to someone else, that is infidelity. It could be sleeping with someone else, flirting, or even having secret emotional conversations with someone they’re attracted to.
Infidelity is not a mistake, it's a choice. A choice that shows lack of love and respect. When someone cheats, they can keep the other person, I'll walk away with my dignity and self respect.
