People Make Mistakes - Sometimes Cheaters Deserve A Second Chance
There are very few absolutes in life
There are very few absolutes in life. One of the few though is that everyone makes mistakes. Even good people do bad things once in a while. Sometimes those bad things carry a heavy price tag but they do not make the person a bad person.
The best example would be about marriage or emotionally - love. What are mistakes in a marriage? One answer is cheating. It's the biggest dreaded mistake one could ever make. It's a harsh reality for the cheater and for the cheated.
Bad circumstances happen for a reason. In spite of those, many would react to cheating as subject of immorality which is a bitter pill to swallow for a spouse who loved the other so much.
The Evil in Cheating
Don't get me wrong. Cheating is bad for marriages. It's not the way to win your spouses undying support and loyalty but does the act suddenly turn you into an evil person? Not hardly - so you can hang up the evil super villain costume you've been trying to wriggle your way into. You're just not ready for it quite yet.
More often than not what cheating is a sign of is that all is not well on the home front. It's not a sign that a man doesn't love his wife or that a woman isn't still madly in love with her husband. It does mean there is a breakdown in communication somewhere along the way that needs to be addressed. Fast! The sooner; the better.
Does Forgiving a Cheater make You a Saint?
It feels rewarding to be one but before you can, you will undergo the hardness of it all. Remember you were cheated without doing anything wrong to your partner. There is certainly a trouble that needs to be resolved.
It's a cry for help. The fact that you answer the cry doesn't mean you're a saint. It means that you love your spouse and want to save your marriage. It's the next best thing to being a saint (and you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor while you're still alive).
What Happens if You're too Late?
Sometimes people don't realize the real value of things until they are gone. The same goes with marriage and relationships which one may not have an idea how valuable it is. Both of you will be working it out once again for the better.
