How to forgive someone who cheated on you?

The only way to forgive them is to choose to forgive them. That will definitely be very hard at first, but with time and evidence/proof from them that shows they are no longer doing such things and are trying to be good to you, you will be able to forgive them. Time heals all wounds, no matter how big. Remember that.

It is very difficult to discover someone has been unfaithful. But, since something like this did happen, I don't know if you should consider forgiveness. All I can say is that someone who truly loves another person won't ever cheat on them. Because that takes the love part away. However every situation is different and complicated and I can understand that. You don't deserve being cheated on, though in any case. That's what you should have in mind and base your thoughts on.

I was cheated on, by someone whom I loved, it took me awhile but I thought life's too short and I have enough problems in my life at the moment, in life there are going to be a lot of barriers between success and happiness, we want to work on removing barriers, not adding to them. I saw at as a barrier someone else put in place of my happiness and took it away.

It can be hard to deal with something so extreme as cheating. It’s often said if someone really loves you then there should be no excuse for cheating. However, sometimes it is necessary to try and work something out, especially if the person seems genuinely sorry. It takes patience and caution to forgive someone who has hurt you so badly. You must be able to stay strong and not dive back into things due to overwhelming feelings and they must be willing to show you how sorry they are. This is the only way you’ll be able to feel happy with forgiving them and it will be good for you long term.

Know that forgiving that person does not excuse the cheating. Forgiving them helps you heal. It’s acknowledging that nobody is perfect. It’s admitting that you were hurt by the cheating and you are willing not to hate the person for not being who you wanted them to be. It takes time, so take your time. Holding a grudge only keeps you in pain and bitter. Let go of the anger, the pain, release it all through forgiveness so that you can begin to heal and be happy. Try to imagine if the shoe was on the other foot. You would want forgiveness.

first of all, understand that you dont have to forgive them if you dont want to. but if you do, know that even though what they did was wrong, they arent a bad person.

Forgiving is very hard, and it's even harder in that case. But after a brief period of grieving your past relationship and being angry at the person, you will realise that you deserve better. You did not deserve to be cheated on. And today, you do not deserve to feel awful because of this person. Forgiving is a very important step to move on. It does not justify the wrong but instead does not allow it to affect us anymore. Forgiving also helps us to see the positive as we are choose to free ourselves from the negative feelings. Best of luck x

If that person cheated for whatever reason, the real question is do they really love you? If you want to forgive someone who cheated, you have to keep in mind that it will be hard to forget. First what you have to do is ask them, why they do it?. What made them make the decision. Understand the reasons why they did it. Forgive them from the heart, and I know it's really hard to forgive someone who cheated. But if you love them, you have to put aside what they did. Especially if they love you too. Try to not overthink their bad decision because it's the past. Learn to love them again. Relive your past experiences with them, relive those emotions like when you guys were first starting to talk. The feelings you had inside when they saw you. The smile on your face when the talked to you. How happy you were with that person, and how alive they made you feel. :) Whenever you are with the person, think of those beautiful moments you had together and so on. Just be careful because you might get hurt again. Think about if you still want to be with that person.

Why wasn't I good enough? Am I ugly? Am I stupid? Boring? Fat? Worthless? Why? What's wrong with me? These are the thoughts that poured through my head in the moments after heartbreak. I was so certain that somehow I was to blame. That it was somehow my failing that lead to her actions. The anger came later, slow, creeping, and a thousand times more damaging to myself than it was to her. She broke my heart and it never felt a thing. The stupid, uncaring, heartless, good for nothing, unforgivab-- Unforgivable? Really? She hurt you. There is absolutely no denying the singular fact that the ache, the one you buried deep in your heart; the one you only bring out when no one else is there to see, is the ache she caused. But is it truly unforgivable? Or can your find it within yourself to look past the ache, to look past the anger you use to mask your pain, and forgive her? I hope so. I have to hope so. But how do I forgive this wound? She struck a deeper wound than I have ever known. How do I forgive something like that? You walk a mile, you take a deep breath, and you look for the real reasons. It wasn't you, nothing your did nor any failing on your part caused this to happen. But it wasn't her either. Not truly. It was, instead, the pain in her life. Some struggle. Some heartache. Some loss. There was something that was simply beyond her ability to properly cope with, and it drove her to make a choice she probably regrets. She wanted some respite, some temporary salve for her wound, and so she made a mistake. And perhaps that mistake means that you can never trust her with your heart again, but it doesn't mean that you can't forgive her. She is hurt too. The sword she cut with was double edged. Indiscriminate. So maybe I couldn't forgive a heartless, thoughtless person who hurt me for no reason at all. This was a heart I once loved, once carried so closely to my own, and I know that, in truth, this was not an act with reason. And because of it she's now as hurt as I am, perhaps even more so. It won't be easy. It won't be simple. And maybe there are some things I couldn't look past. But a broken and bleeding soul? That I can forgive.

I do not entertain it. There is no forgiveness. Actually if a person has developed feelings for others then he/she should have conveyed it to the significant person before taking any decisions. Actually we are not gonna stop him/her but he/she doesn't have any rights to play with our feelings. If he/she claims that they were into the casual one or not in a serious relationship then he/she would have discussed/talked about it before the starting of the relationship.
