Cheat and confession... WEEK 164

image.png

Good evening hivers, today I find myself participating again in the wonderful challenge that our friend @galenkp proposes to us every weekend. Among all the topics there were three that were quite similar, since they were related to infidelity, I had the experience of having gone through this circumstance, I will share with you my personal opinion from my point of view.

Cheat and confession (one)
Your partner has an affair but eventually confesses to you and wants to work it out with you. What do you do and why?

Confessing that one has committed infidelity is an act that implies a lot of courage, since with this confession the relationship can be definitively broken, for this reason I highly value people who have the courage to confess infidelity, because many times Confessing the truth results in losing everything, since you will be judged.

I consider myself a person with an open mind, I understand that we are human beings, that making mistakes is part of life and forgiving is also part of life. Here the most important point is the trajectory of your partner, if he has shown throughout the relationship to be a faithful person. Based on his behavior it is viable and we may give another chance.

In my personal experience, when my partner confessed to me that he had been unfaithful, I made several decisions about it. The first condition was that he must answer all my questions and he must obey my conditions. The first thing I wanted to know was to tell me about infidelity in great detail, perhaps many people think that it is better not to know so as not to suffer more, but I consider that it is necessary to hit bottom and from that open wound we can heal, knowing the truth of raw form, is the only way to live the duel.

There is an important condition that I asked to take care of my health, for 1 year I had sexual relations with condoms since I did not know if the person I had been with was healthy, I think that sometimes we give free rein to passion and forget that our health can be at risk for a passionate moment.

I think that love and forgiveness go hand in hand, as long as the same pattern of conduct is not repeated. Sometimes the person appreciates the second chance and never commits infidelity again, but there are other people who think that time acts as a healing pill and that it completely erases memories and they commit infidelity again, thinking that they will be forgiven again. This was my personal experience and that was the straw that broke the cup, I lost the ability to forgive once again.

The healing process takes a long time, it is easy to forgive, but the feelings of sadness linger and it is difficult to blindly trust again, when the wound closes completely and you are convinced that your partner is a faithful person and you discover that he is not. , then there is no going back, it is when we reach a point of no return and that is when the cycle must be closed completely.

If one day I have a partner again who confesses that he was unfaithful to me, I would give it another chance, I consider that a bad experience should not change our way of thinking and acting, despite my bad experience I continue to be an open-minded person and that bets on love, as we are human beings we make mistakes, it is allowed and it is not bad, because perhaps in the future it will be me who commits infidelity and I would love to be given another chance.

Thank you very much for your kind comment, the important thing in life is to understand that we are imperfect human beings and that forgiving will always be a good choice.

You have given a good view on this with your point. Anyway, people are different and the way we feel about things is different. It's true that forgiveness and love work hand in hand, if I'm the one, I'm gonna forgive out of love, but I will not feel comfortable to continue with the relationship, due to lies and I will be feeling insecure,but I must say that you have strong and good heart for giving a second chance.

It's a nice read from you, it's a pleasure to be here.

Thanks for the visit and support. Many times I came to think that I would not forgive a betrayal, until I had the experience and realized that love often wins over resentment.
Happy night, a hug!

I guess you're writing from experience, we, that's life, anything can happen, most times, we do things we never thought we'll do out of love.

How hard it must have been for you to find out about all that, I don't know if I would have given him a second chance but he would definitely have completely lost confidence.

It was a very sad experience, for a long time I cried thinking that I would never get over that pain, but one day I woke up and felt that I had recovered and that was when my partner was unfaithful again.
Let's hope that if love ever appears again, it will be honest and faithful.

Wow friend, infidelity is a strong and painful subject. The truth is that I wouldn't give it another chance, because everything is broken and nothing is the same again. Maybe I'm too radical and it's hard for me to forgive a person who has been unconditional. This applies to friendships, family and relationships.

In my adolescence I was a very radical person who did not forgive or give second chances, over time I understood that sometimes infidelity does not mean heartbreak, there are many circumstances that can influence a person to make this mistake, by forgiving sometimes we win and others losing, I had to lose.
Thank you very much for your support and visit, a hug!

How hard friend, it must have been very difficult, as you say it must take a long time to build trust in that person again and even more difficult, if you see that they keep repeating it and there was never any regret sincere.

I agree with you, there was never sincere repentance and he felt confident that I would forgive him again, but it was impossible to do it a second time.

Very good thinking, we all deserve a second chance, but the excuse that we all make mistakes is not a justification for making them.

I agree, I consider myself a faithful person and even if I am sure that my partner would forgive me for infidelity, I would not be able to cheat, because it would go against my values.

What a strong confession and I admire you for it, my friend. I think I'd rather not know! And if I find out I think I'd rather end it all because sometimes it's hard for me to forget something that was done to me and to live with that is not forgiving. Although I really prefer not to go through a situation like this.

I confess that this experience is very sad, if you don't know how to channel it maturely it can lead you to depression for a long time, I had to use countless mental tools to heal the emotional wound.
