beentheredonethat agony auntNope...once a cheat can learn his lesson that cheating IS Nothing...and not worth loosing you for.

10 times a cheat....even 3 or 4...always a cheat. Then it is a problem that either must be fixed or accepted. Anyone can have an whoops...even those who are sure they would never cheat and shout it from the rooftops....once they stop shouting....you better start watching who their eyes are following.....cause they have a new hobby.

Wendyg agony auntOkay not everyone cheats again... but its a higher percentage that do. It wont be easy getting back together, as every time he goes out you will be wondering where he is, who is with etc... this in itself could be damaging to you. He knows he has done wrong and is probably prepared for you to be checking up on him, but there is only so much anyone can take. Trust has to be earned and this will take a hell of along time to get back if ever. Maybe give him the benefit of the doubt, but know in your heart that it wont be fixed over night, this could take a long time to repair. You may both benefit from some counselling to get you back on the right road, relate do offer a service for couples who are trying to make a go off it after a partner has cheated, so this may be something that you could look into and may be able to help you both deal with this situation. Remember it will be hard work, but if you want something badly enough go for it. But also you may have to wipe the slate completely clean, which means as hard as this will be, any row that you have in the future you will have to strive not to mention the affair, or this will just cause more anguish to you, and you will end up going over the same gound!

Good luck
