He Cheated — Time to Deal With it

So, you were cheated on in Austin. That is some really unfortunate news. I have been lucky enough to have never been cheated on in my life, though I’ve heard several stories from friends and family members who were victimized by infidelity. From all the accounts I’ve gathered, being cheated on by a true lover is one of the most difficult things human beings can go through. In fact, some people never emerge the same after they were cheated on. It leaves a dark ring inside the soul, and it’s the sort of ring that won’t be cleansed despite how much time has passed. However, some of the stories about cheating that I’ve heard actually have happy endings. For the women who have found it in their hearts to forgive their soulmate for infidelity, they have emerged from the experience with a stronger sense of self and a healthier relationship. In life, the most beautiful things can come out of truly unfortunate circumstances. Right now, you might not feel like there is any hope of happiness left in your life, but you need to step outside of that mindset. Good things still await you, despite this little obstacle you’re going through. Ask yourself these questions when deciding whether or not you should forgive your man for cheating.

Forgive a Cheater — Does he Deserve it?

When it comes time to decide whether or not to forgive a cheater, you first need to ask yourself if he truly deserves your forgiveness. From what I’ve heard, there are two types of cheaters: frequent cheates who will basically sleep with anything that moves, and infrequent cheaters who only cheat in rare occasions under a host of certain circumstances. If your boyfriend is a serial cheater, then it’s probably time to kick him to the curb. However, if he is a good man who only happened to slip once, and you truly love him, then you owe it to both of you t give forgiveness a chance.

Is he Different from Typical Cheating Men?

Is your boyfriend different from typical cheating men? Those typical guys are, quite frankly, pigs. Not only will they have sex with anyone they see on the street, but they will openly brag about their frequent affairs to their friends, and they won’t feel a morsel of guilt over it. If your boyfriend is feeling overwhelmed by regret over the mistake that he made, then he is not the average cheating man.

Is he Finally Being Honest?

After some men cheat, they actually change for the better. Confirmation of their potentially horrid human nature can possibly bring out the very best in them. It sounds strange to say, but it’s true. For example, your boyfriend might finally start being completely honest with you after he cheats, for fear of not building the dishonest bad habits that would lead him to cheat on you again in the future.

Do You Still Love Him?

This is, by far, the most important question to ask yourself. Do you still love him? If you don’t, then there’s really no need to further this conversation ‚ just get the hell out of there. If you do still love him, then it’s time to put on your forgiveness cap, and give him another chance.
