Forgiving and (not) forgetting
It’s all good and well for a person looking on from the outside to judge a relationship and say a woman should leave if her man cheats, but often, other factors cause her to stay, including having children, and financial reasons.
As such, forgiving is the order of the day in many serious relationships, because getting up and leaving is not as simple as just packing a bag.
What has been women’s experiences? Some share below:
Denise:
I have forgiven my husband several times, but you know what I learned? It is not very wise or clever to do so because once a person shows you who they are, that is who they are. The last cheating act burned me to the core because it was a girl I worked with. I learned my lesson loud and clear.
Tracey:
No, I am not that type to catch you cheating and forgive you. I’m aggressive on another level, so it’s best I leave the relationship.
Rosie:
I am not sure who I would confront first, him or the woman. Once bitten, twice shy, so it’s best I take my pride and find another man.
Rylan:
Some men, once you forgive them, you become a laughingstock. If my man slips once he will slip again, so it’s best we part.
JG:
That happened to me years ago and I vowed to myself that it would never happen again and I have been single for three years. It scarred me until I’m afraid to even date. My best friend and my fiancé. I can never get over that.
