Love the one you're with.
Let no doubt creep in.
Take every thought hostage.
Believe in one another.
Trust, always.
Forgive all wrongs, imagined or real...
...in advance!
Be whom you wish to see in the world.
Foibles of human affairs ought not have power
over the greatness of love,
nor on its ability to heal,
and to cleanse from all bitterness.
The clouds of life do not cover the sun,
but merely obscure our viewpoint of it;
the sun within us can--and does--outshine the darkness,
except as we let darkness dwell within ourselves.

I don't believe so myself but to each his own.

Normally, I would say no. But I guess my sister is the exception to the rule. My sister and her second husband got together when they were both having marriage difficulties that their spouses were not taking seriously. But once they got divorced and got married, their marriage has been really good.

If it is a one time infidelity in that person or their partner's life? Maybe.

However, otherwise, EXTREMELY rare. Not likely to flourish.

If they'll cheat with you they'll cheat on you IMO

I would tend to agree....most of the time.

Ah, but is he happy? Is she? And, are they faithful to each other. Unanswered questions....

Relationships that start in infidelity have a low success rate. Marriages bourne out of infidelity have a less than ten percent chance of success.

My ex cheated on me and married his paramour. They broke up last December....

I gotta' agree! It depends on the cheaters conscience. Did they see the error of their ways and give a care or not?

I would say if he/she cheated on one to be with the other - what's to say they won't cheat on that one.

Yea a lot of cheaters seem to do it repetitively so it seems unlikely their relationships could flourish long or often. It is okay or normal for them to cheat in their mind. Or maybe just a way of life for them. Who knows? Once I make a commitment I am faithful. If I plan not to be I will say so.

I just hate deceit. If I can't be honest with my mate why bother? I know so many couples that lie to each other so much it is disgusting. If nothing else I have to have honesty. If I have to make up lies to get along I'd rather be alone.

i tend to go for girls that are "involved" with someone, i like the challenge.

My last 2 gf's were kinda stolen from other guys, but the entire time we were together (one for almost five years) i always kept in the back of my head "if they cheated on that other guy, whats gonna stop them from cheating on me?"

I once knew a woman (a-hem) who was married for 16 years, he cheated, they divorced, he married affair floozy, they divorced after 11 months. My friend remarried and stayed married for 25 years then she became a widow and the cheater called my friend up to rekindle things. She laughed at him. laugh Moral to the story: A bunch of drama for 11 months of forbidden fruit.noway
