Surviving An Affair
Question - How does one’s relationship survive an affair!
My Answer - For your relationship to survive an affair you must truly forgive him or her and s/he must find a way that satisfies you in making up for what s/he did.
S/He broke his/her word and his/her vows to you. Now, it is up to you to forgive him/her and give him/her a way to make it up to you. S/He must make amends and keep his/her word to you from now on in all areas. You must ask yourself. Is this the first time or is this a pattern? If it is a pattern, you both need to get some counseling to see what is going on underneath all the cheating. Many times, peoples who cheat will always cheat.Remember: You deserve to have a husband/wife you can trust. If this was the only time s/he has strayed, then you still have a chance. You may still want to get counseling. You both need to find your part in what happened and be responsible for it or else history will repeat itself.If this sounds too difficult to handle, you should consider moving on and creating a new future with someone that you can trust.
