How to forgive yourself for cheating or lying?

I like to think of your past self who did those things as a different person from who you are, so you can hate that person, and try to be better than that person.

The fact that you want forgiveness means you feel guilty and that for starters is good thing because come on what you've done was wrong and this means you're admitting it . Then ask the forgiveness of the person you've hurt it doesn't matter if they accept it or not the most important thing is that you will feel better after that .fimally the most important thing is to not do that again 😊

Mistakes happen and the first step to forgiveness is acceptance and thereafter reformed action. Be a better person each day, appreciate the little things and work around issues..

To truly forgive yourself you must admit to yourself the issues. Then you get help and go through a meditation process to heal and let go of all the hurt and pain you caused to yourself and the ones around you.One you can forgive yourself and become the best you that you can be than you will become a amazing person who wouldn't find the need to cheat or lie to be the best you,you have to start with you.

Remind yourself that you're a human being. you're flawed. you're not meant to be perfect. Learn that it's okay to make mistakes, as long as you learn to face the consequences. Do admit that you made a mistake, especially to the other person. it will help if they see that you regret it, and show them (not just tell) that you're going to try and make it up to them.

This is particularly hard, I usually have to tell the person or people I cheated that I cheated them and ask for their forgiveness before I can forgive myself.

Forgiving is something essential for us, as humans. Sometimes we forgive others but we forget that forgiving ourselves is important as well. We tend to think that when we make a mistake we are not good anymore and that only evil has remained in our hearts. But do we really think the same when someone else makes a mistake? No. Sometimes we just need to remember that we all have flaws and that we are not necessarily bad. Forgiving yourself is much more challenging than forgiving someone else because we have to live with your thoughts and emotions the whole time. Forgiving isn't about pretending that it never happened, it just means that you assume what you did and take the consequences, without letting them cause bad feeling about yourself, because not forgiving is like keep touching that open wound, so it doesn't cure.

It's important to remember that every human being is bound to make mistakes. It is something inevitable. Surely, the way we deal with our mistakes tell a lot about how we see and know ourselves. Lying and cheating are also included in mistakes we usually make in our lifetime. It is perfectly normal for someone to feel guilty and remorseful over their mistakes, especially if he/she knew that what they were doing was wrong. I think the first step towards forgiving yourself towards lying or cheating is to admit that you did something wrong, and understand how it impacted you and other people. I believe that if you do so, it will help with overcoming your problems much easier. After reflecting on why these actions were incorrect and recognizing that you made a mistake, the second step would be self-reassurance. By reminding yourself that every human being makes mistakes and that your mistakes don't make you a bad person, it will help you feel better about overcoming your problem. You would start to feel more comfortable with accepting your mistakes and work towards becoming a better individual. The third step would be to strive to not repeat the mistakes ever again. Even if you catch yourself slipping up, don't worry. Keep trying to avoid making these mistakes again, and you will eventually learn how to fully overcome them.

It can be very hard, but what I use to do is to tell myself that I can't go back and undo the cheating or untell the lie, the best thing I can do is to move on and try my very best and not repeat the same mistake again. Sulking over what I have done just keeps me back, and it just keeps you back as well! Accept what you have done, and promise yourself that you will learn from your mistakes and not repeat them

Forgiving yourself for cheating comes through self discovery and making amends to the best of your ability. You also will need to determine what it is that caused you to exhibit the behaviors of lying and/or cheating on your partner.
