how is your relationship now?
I forgave my partner for cheating. I only found out recently that he cheated on me twice about 6 months ago. I found messages, lots of them. I found two different women he did not have sex with, but had done other sexual things with. I messaged both of the women and asked what happened. Both were friends he met at school. One woman said it was a one time thing and the other woman said it happened around 3 times.
I always thought I would be the type of woman to leave instantly if I got cheated on. I would be strong and independent and know that I deserve better. It's really easier said than done isn't it.
I confronted him and he apologised so much and said he was in a bad place (he was, his parents both died around that time and he was very distant from me. I thought giving him space would help him grieve in his own way and I didn't know he was out doing that). He said everything I wanted to hear and promised to be better. He placed a lot of blame on the fact that he was going through this huge time in his life and it would never happen again.
I forgave him. But since I found out it's all I can think about. I want to know from others who forgave their partners for cheating, how did it go? Did they cheat again? Are you happy together now? How did you trust them again? I'm a firm believer that people can change. I just want to know how other people got past their partner cheating
