You are the expert about your situation, however, I have been in similar situations, and I have found that allowing someone to come back into my life (who has hurt me profoundly) hasn't helped me. However, I always forgive these people, because if I refuse to forgive them, I am the one who ends up suffering. Usually, I try to offer them some loving-kindness when I meditate. On the other hand, I make sure to set up some very firm boundaries with them in my day-to-day life. This prevents me from suffering more than I have to.

Absolutely not. Coming from someone that has had this happen too many times, I can say that cheaters will always let you down. Once a cheat, always a cheat. He'll just do it again... Find someone loyal that treats you like gold. It's possible... Just give it time. Take my word for it.

In very few cases do I believe in giving another opportunity after cheating. Sometimes when there is children involved it is worth the healing process. Otherwise, it is a hard thing to forgive and especially in a dating relationship, sometimes it is more difficult and painful than simply being alone or finding someone who is willing to be faithful

I cannot give you specific advice, because i worry that it would not go well and I don’t want that. You have to decide in this situation. You have to decide if he is good enough for you or not. You have to see if he is committed to you, and only you this time. You have to make sure that you won’t be hurt by him again.

I think that who cheated once, would cheat 100 times. You can give him a chance but do not fall into deep for him, keep your eyes open and your guards up. You are beautiful, worthy and anyone would be lucky to have you. So do not toxic yourself with such a relationship of it is harming you in any type of way. You deserve happiness and always the best. But if you feel like you know him so well and he tried to make efforts to change and be the best for you then you can forgive him and start all over together, all fresh and clean filled with love and trust.

I have been cheated on, so I have experience with this. For me, I believe all people make mistakes. I have forgiven my partner in the past after we thoroughly discussed it. There was more to just cheating. I had to find out the reasons he would cheat on me and resolve any issues going forward. We needed to seek counseling to resolve past issues and move forward. I have them another chance, but it took some time for me to forgive and move on. I can't advise you what to do. I personally made a decision that was healthy and made me happy. I know you can make the right decision for yourself.
