    It is possible although very unhealthy and morally wrong.

  2. November 25th, 2009 at 13:31 | #2

    You’d be very unhappy

    Do you mean they are still cheating. If so NO WAY. If they are Truly sorry it might take a long time but you might be able to gain back normality in the relationship. But not without work. So is the relationship worth it to you????

    not if you have any self respect but yes if your a door mat and have no b”lls

    Nope, not me. Cheating is a complete deal breaker and I would be gone. I would accept under NO circumstances or excuses at all.

    Of course. You can adjust to just about anything if you want to. But do you really want to? Are you better off with the spouse or without? No one can or should make that decision except you.

    For me, it would depend on a lot of things: was it with one person or a serial problem? Is it over? Was it long-term? Was there a deep attachment? Is there remorse? Is it likely to happen again?

  7. December 4th, 2009 at 07:33 | #7

    That depends.
    Is she sorry? Was it with one person or a series of them? Does she accept the blame or does she try and blame you?

    Do you want to?

    It is hard, and it takes a long time to trust again, but yes, it can be done. They must be truly sorry and willing to promise never to hurt you again. I didi it, and he never cheated again..

    As long as there are no sharp objects or indeed blunt objects laying around the place and that you’re heavily sedated and possibly have a damn good attorney then maybe just maybe it maybe possible.

    Then again, if you are wholly sane why would you want to live with someone like that?

  10. December 9th, 2009 at 05:01 | #10

    It won’t be normal in that it won’t be the way it was before… You’ll always be unhappy to some degree, but you can be content with the life you have and still love your partner. Because, really, you can’t turn love off. It can be done.

    Sometimes people will cheat once. But after cheating that one time they find out it was the biggest mistake of their live. And then they work on whatever needs to be worked on. But if a person keeps cheating and cheating over and over again then that is a different story. If your spouse is cheating on you and has no intention of stopping then you are better off on your own. But you need to talk to your spouse and you need to find out what is really going on. And maybe you can save your marriage. But if you can’t save your marriage then why would you want to stay with someone who is cheating on you. It is not possible to stay with someone who is cheating because it never works out.

    I wouldn’t be able to do it. That is the ultimate betrayal

    Its very personal as depends on which type of person u r .More precisely the answer is usually a big ”NO” but , but first point- It depends upon the seriousness of the relation she is into
    2nd-Whats wrong in your boths Relationship may be a serious cause 3rd-Is she still cheating u 4th-Is it possibly any chance to mend on your relation your question leads to many more questions so cannot axactly judge it and give u a proper answer do find out first the reason of her cheating u Next if she is cheating u for fun then its absolutely No to your above question Best of luck and think then take decision

    Why the hell would anyone want to live with a cheating spouse? Is it because they would love to see their spouse leave the house knowing they’re going to have sex with some other ahole?

    Well if that’s the case they must be too insecure and have absolutely no respect for themselves.

    Filing for divorce is the only way to go if you have a cheating spouse, otherwise it will only get worse.

    No, you cannot live with a cheating spouse any more that you can win at cards playing against a cheater. The idea of cheating automatically implies you were expecting intimacy, both physical and emotional, to be shared with your mate exclusively. When that trust is broken nothing is ever the same. Many people enter into relationships with high ideals and the best intentions, but without understanding the true meaning of commitment to one person. After being told repeatedly I have no right to say who she could and could not associate with, even after receiving email from her “best friend in the whole world” about how to treat my own wife I stopped complaining. When she started coming home at 1AM or 3AM or calling to say she was to drunk to drive home from his house I was a little fed up. When she refused to go out or do anything with me “she doesn’t like those places” but went with him to anyplace he wanted her to go, I just waited. She finally left because any responsibility to me was just too much to expect.

    better divorce and stay single

  17. December 21st, 2009 at 06:46 | #17

    Possible it really depends on you, and what kind of person you are. It might make you a very insure, jealous person who is constantly wondering what she is doing, where she is, who she’s with, it might put this constant mind frame that you can’t get out of. Also it might turn into an abusive relationship where you try to control her or something, but not on purpose. Its because of what she did, she broke your trust and trust is a very, very hard thing to gain back. You might think you trust her but in the end you prolly never will again and most likely your gonna become an extremely jealous person. Or maybe not, go see a marriage counselor and try to work things out.

    Some people do. But its not for you mentally & physically. Everytime he/she leaves, you’ll drive yourself crazy wondering if they’re with the other person or not. You need to leave.

    My husband cheated on me. He brought the female to our house. A couple of weeks later, he kicked the kids & I out. I had to start over. But it was worth it. I feel so much better. Now, he’s on his third marriage & probably heading for divorce. God don’t like ugly!

    I think the question here is can you??

  20. December 25th, 2009 at 21:16 | #20

    it depends about what cheat u talk about, if it happened just once when she couldnt control herself then u should forgive her, but if that happens all the time then it is not possible, at least for me

    no the pinch and itch will be there every time.. the sphere is a big one to heal fast.. u see…so it will take time to build up trust.. which sometimes will play in our thoughts to ask and question..which will make the matter worst.
    so keep cool..let time heal ur wound and marriage..

    Hi traveller it is been long since we talked..how are u?

    Ummm, i guess the information missing here is have they stopped cheating and you are trying to come to grips with it or is it still going on.

    If they are still at it then no …

    If they have stopped then you DO have a chance. It is my belief that cheating happens when one partner does not believe they are getting what they need out of a relationship … this is not always true but it may be thier perception of the situation. So the trick to rebuilding trust and a good marriage after an affair is to communicate about the WHY and from there build a stronger relationship. This article might explain a bit more.

    I believe it is possible. Everyone is human, everyone makes mistakes. If you have the strength to be forgiving, to accept and move on, yes I suppose it’s possible. That said, it’s an individual thing. For me, I walked out the day I found out he was cheating and never looked back.
