As a married woman of 8 yrs, the answer to that question will always be determined by the situation . Forgiveness is not easy and it is really hard when the person that has ripped out your heart is your husband. First I must say that everyone should be forgiven, because beleive it or not, it will bring peace to the soul that is hurting.

Now staying with a cheating husband is out of the question, but that is the main reason every woman who has stayed or left their mate has had to make that decision for themselves. As for me, I stayed.

Some husbands who cheat really are sorry and if given the chance would not be repeat offenders, and then you have those who no matter what will not be faithful. In my opinion you have to know which one you are working with.

Cheating husbands never take into consideration the damage being done, and that is why its more common than not. It is also true from my experience that destroying trust in your relationship is very hard to overcome, which is why so many people divorce because of cheating, the reason I stayed primarily had nothing to do with love and everything to do with the survival of my family. You must consider that even though the destruction divorce will cause is not your fault it will be your history.

Not all marriages can be reconciled after cheating, and trust me I know first hand the pain and hurt that is involved with this situation. But if nothing else look at the good times, and look at the man, and the decision will be yours to live with.

Always forgive.
