How to forgive yourself for cheating or lying?

Honestly, the right thing to do (despite it not being the easiest) is to tell the person who you lied to the honest truth. You'll feel so much better if you do that.

Acknowledging or accepting what you did is wrong is the first step to forgiving yourself. The second is becoming a better version of yourself and making sure to not repeat the same mistakes. Doing this is better than regretting what you did. This is what I've learned.

Everyone messes up. Me, you, everybody. It’s important to acknowledge mistakes, feel appropriate remorse and learn from them so they don’t happen again. Acknowledge what you have already done to learn from this experience. Seeing faults clearly, taking responsibility for them, and making amends will then allow you to become at peace about them and forgiving yourself.

Forgiveness it's a difficult thing to do, even more when you're trying to forgive yourself. But you have to understand that everyone makes mistakes, and the important thing is to recognise that you made it. It can be a long way, for sure, but it isn't impossible.

It is not your own fault for loving more than two people in your life it is very hard to think that leaving both of your lovers but staying with another than to stay with both. If you lie then you have to stay honest, and tell him why you lied

Its rightly said that forgiveness comes only from within. Best you can do is not repeat the mistake.

Forgiving yourself isn't easy. However, if you set goals and plan to change and rearrange your habits, you will be happy with yourself. This will cause for a positive habit change.

In order to forgive oneself for cheating or lying, one has to understand the underlying triggers that caused themselves to behave in a manner that they didn't think was correct , as well as handle the quilt they are experiencing due to these actions.

I forgive myself by knowing that I've done everything I can to apologise and try to fix the situation and that I'm not a bad person because I've tried to make up for what I did.

This is a very difficult task. The first thing to do is seek forgiveness from the other person. Whether they do or not should not decide whether you forgive yourself but it is part of the process. For myself, I focus on the future for this. Your past is very important, as long as you learn from it. We all make mistakes, we aren't perfect, but we can learn from our mistakes and not make them again. Mistakes turn you into the person you are, don't let them consume you and never leave, better yourself by overcoming them and not doing them in the future.
