Cheaters - How Can I Save Our Relationship

If you have ever been in a relationship where you or your partner cheated, you might wonder how you are able to ever move on. The question is for cheaters how can I save our relationship? There are a lot of things you are able to do to move your relationship forward after one person has been unfaithful, but you have to keep in mind that sometimes a relationship simply can't be saved.
If both parties want to try to save the relationship and move on after an affair it will take a lot of time and maturity. It is really tough to trust again after somebody has taken your trust and thrown it away. Some people won't be able to get over it and it will not only end their existing relationship but that lack of trust can follow them to relationship after relationship for the rest of their lives.
Because the hurt you can cause another individual could literally scar them for life it is really important that you really think it through before you decide to cheat. After all, is a little fun on the side, or a quick ego boost really worth the pain you will be causing another human? If you're so insecure that you think it is worth it just so you are able to feel better about yourself and more desirable you should in all likelihood not be in any relationship and spend some time in a therapists office.
One of the biggest things you'll need to do to move your relationship forward after an affair is to have both parties be brutally honest about the initial breakdown of the relationship and their part in it. Blame for ruining a relationship is always shared by both parties, not always evenly, but there are reasons the relationship fell apart to the point that somebody thought they needed to have their needs satisfied by somebody else.
Once you are able to truthfully admit what went wrong you can solve the problem if you and your partner can communicate effectively. This means you have to avoid name calling, fingerpointing, and accusations. If you are able to communicate in an adult fashion about the problems in your relationship and what you are able to do to fix them you might be able to salvage your relationship.
The bottom line is that not all relationships should be saved. If you're involved with somebody who has a long history of cheating you should just move on. They're obviously too concerned with their own selfish wants and needs, and they'll never change. If, on the other hand, somebody just gave into a moment of weakness you may be able to work together to save your relationship. So ask yourself: cheaters, how can I save our relationship?
