can you love someone that you know has cheated on you?

Answer 1

You can love them, but if they cheated on you, do they love you???

Answer 2

Yes. You can love the cheater, but not love the cheating. You need to see if the person is willing to redeem himself through not only words, but actions. If that other person is not willing to take actual concrete steps to earn your forgiveness and earn the opportunity to regain back the trust that was lost due to the cheating, then you may consider walking away. It all depends on how much you have invested in the relationship. If this is a marriage, then you should insist you both attend marriage counseling. Good luck.

Answer 3

Sure you can. However, it would be a spectacularly bad idea for you to ever let them have even the tiniest shred of power over you in any way. That basically rules out a monogamous relationship with them or anything more than a no strings attached sexual relationship with them.

Don't feel bad though. Most people fall into that category with or without evidence of cheating. It's no big deal....unless of course you are stupid enough to get into a relationship where fidelity is necessary (ie get married and/or have children with them). If you do that, you are going to suffer horribly for your stupidity. To make matters worse, the other person won't give two shits about your suffering (or the suffering of your children for that matter).

The other person is for certain limited things, ONLY.

Answer 4

Yes, you may always be annoyed with the fact that you can't turn that affection (love) into a harshness (hate). This don't mean you have to except it and stay in the relationship thinking things will change. Most guys that make that step can't help but do it again, no matter how hard they try. So, you need to determine if you want to be around long enough to see if that's the case with him. Even if you try to stay with him, you won't trust him, and things will be miserable. You will always have thoughts about the other woman that won't be answered and you'll get angrier as time progress. Make your choice, no one can do that for you.

Answer 5

Yes.
But I think it depends on the kind of cheating... just sex or an actual relationship...cause if it's more than sex, there isn't much hope for the future on either side. I think it has more to do witht he person who cheated...they need to make some desiscions and get some therapy!

Answer 6

You can if you really love them, it won't be easy. Forgetting is the hardest part. Being able to trust again is also a very hard thing to do. So it's up to the person who cheated to give you time and to earn their trust and to prove their love again.

Answer 7

u can always forgive but never forget , giving a second chance to that person whom u really love is not a bad idea, it is true u should listen to your heart only and be strong to face the consequences of what ever direction you decide to move , so all the best

Answer 8

If you have forgiven them and they are sorry and have gotten past it yes you sure can! Love is a choice! We choose to love and forgive and get past things or we choose to be bitter and hateful and unforgiving and live with the pain and be victims the rest of our lives.Its all about choices!

Answer 9

Yes I could still love them, and No, I would no longer be with them. That would be a deal breaker for me.....no questions asked.
