can i trust a woman who i know has cheated on me?

Answer 1

Yes you can learn to trust a woman who has cheated on you. you have to be patient and learn to forgive but not forget and build on a new foundation. i don't know if it takes half a decade, two years, you will be the only one to decide but holding on to it won't allow you both to grow in this relationship. you will either forgive her and move on (in due time of course) or you will never forgive her and the both of you move on with your lives. i'm sure shes sincere otherwise she would not have told you. hopefully it works out good luck & God bless the both of you.

Answer 2

First of all, how do you know she cheated on you? Did you catch her or did she tell you? And even if she did cheat on you, you should find out why so as to ensure it doesn't happen again. Every one deserves a second chance and the fact that you are willing to try again with her shows that you still care for her although you have lingering doubts. Monitor her behaviour and try to remodel your relationship with her. Find out wat it is she intends to give toward the success of the relationship and inturn, tell her what are your intentions. Remind her of the fact that the pain she caused you was profound and if she knows within her heart that she may do it again, let you know so as to prevent any additional heartache later on down the road. Be firm with her and always say what's on your mind. Make sure u take her to get tested so as to rule out any risk of STDs which she may have contracted from the guy and would further comlicate your relationship. The fact that she cheated on you will be forever etched in your mind and no matter how hard you try to get pass it, it'll always be there so unless your'e willing to go through reminder constantly, I would suggest you just move on. But if you plan to settle down with her, let it go and work with her to make the relationship stronger.

Answer 3

I wish i knew if my husband was telling me the truth that he never cheated on me, but he always lie to me, so i don't trust him. I don't know if he's ever cheated on me or not, but what does it matter? So, My answer is NO, once a cheater always a cheater. It can be like 10 years from now that they didn't cheat, but once they see that good looking person that can swipe them off their feets for just a minute, they'll do it again. What can you do!

Answer 4

it depends..once a cheater always a cheater isnt always true, but it is rare to find sum1 that would cheat only once & not again, only u can make a choice to trust her again, ask yourself q's like how along ago did she cheat on me, with who, was she sober, has she tried to earn my trust back, etc if it was a long time ago & she was under the influence & she has tried to prove her trust to you then she has a decent chance of being faithful but ya never know, unless u loved this woman & she loved u i wouldnt give it a 2nd chance though it wouldnt be worth it, if u decide to trust her, dont completely open your heart be aware its possible to happen again...

Answer 5

Well, if she didn't tell you, I'm assuming you probably never would have known, and she told you for a reason. She obviously felt guilty about it, and needed to get it off her chest. If it was the only time, I think it is safe to say you can trust her. I'm sure she realizes she made a mistake. That's why she is still with you. I'm sure she won't do it again. Hopefully she's learned her lesson. Best of luck.

Answer 6

A person CAN change. I believe that it depends. Was it a long term affair? Did she end it, or get caught? A one time drunken mistake would be one thing, but a long term affair is different. That requires ongoing lies, deceit, and planning. So, long term is harder to get over. Your worries are why cheating is so terrible. The doubts last for a loooong time.

Answer 7

I hate saying this...but no.

People who cheat, seem to be more likely to cheat again. Perhaps its easier to do it again or maybe they just get stuck in some kind of cycle.

Basically, I think it's time to move on =(

Answer 8

Dude, y do you even need to ask, HELL NO! I have 2 rules in a realtionship, 1 is if you want someone else im cool with it just tell me first out of some respect, and 2, once she is gone, never take her back no matter what!

Answer 9

Mate, if she is 23 and above forget it she will always have the tendencies to cheat. But if she is below that age give her another chance she still don't know what she wants.

Answer 10

that depends- I cheated on my bf when I was 16 years old, 6 years later- we are both past that juvenile, immature behavior and have found a new wonderful way to love each other respectfully and honestly. she can change- but give her half a decade.
