    I was once cheated on. I left the day I found out. It was the best thing I ever did. No one should ever take that from anybody. Only a bad person would cheat. I believe 100% that a cheater will always cheat again.

    A spouse that cheats, whether physically or emotionally, doesn't even stop to think how their actions are going to hurt you, shatter your confidence, break your heart into a million pieces, write in stone the memory they are imprinting on you. I just can't understand why they would even deserve you consider the possibility of staying with them. Nothing, absolutely nothing justifies their actions. I doubt I could ever see my spouse with trust and respect any more. I would be embarrassed to be seen out with him after his heartless behavior.

      To me it's not as simple as black and white as some people end up cheating for different reasons and then are genuinely remorseful about it and have deep regret. Some times it's something deep rooted that drives them to cheat even when they don't want to do it. For some it's a spiritual problem. Either way it's not justifiable, but I can sympathize with someone who was struggling and trying their best not to cheat as compared to some one u just wanted to cheat and have fun.

    You need to respect yourself enough to divorce someone who has had multiple affairs. Can you end up with a healthy, stronger relationship post affair? Yes, depending on the reasons, and if both partners want to make it work. If there are multiple affairs get rid of her, it is a pattern, not a mistake.

    I was a good, (but sick) person that did bad things, but I straightened out. Didn't happen all at once as I had many addictions to overcome. Now I am drug and alcohol free, and even cigarette free. The infidelity's came with the territory, but I had problems with that since I was a child actually. Anyhow, that I also no longer do, and going on 29 years of marriage this June.

    My husband was a cheater, i closed my eyes and try to ignore it until my kids brought it to my attention. I then just asked outright do you want a divorce and the answer was yes, so i said okay and walked away, but then he said no and so we tried to mend it, but twelve years later he decided to leave with a young lady and told me he needed to be happy and the only way was with her. My kids were young adults but they were very badly impacted and hurt, my daughter very badly.

  • @ShayVidz
    @ShayVidz Před rokem +12

    “Bad person” is not the best way to describe someone. The actions they display are a better indicator on wether to stay or leave. Also even if the did something wrong once and that’s it, is it the others person job to go through unnecessary pain and trauma? Do they have to stay? No they are free to leave. Don’t force someone to stay if they will not let it go or don’t want to stay because they won’t tolerate it. It is called boundaries and free will. They have free will to cheat, I have free will to leave. This is mainly pushed on women to stay and forgive. You can forgive someone and also respect you own boundaries. The other person will likely not be so happy about that and keep trying to change what you want for yourself. They don’t have a right to ask you to stay after an affair. They should be doing what they can to rebuild trust, and begging is not a part of that.

    Change your title to:”Walk away after infidelity”, and you got your answer. Unless you are a modern day Hosea, and think God is wanting to make your life symbolic picture of his relationship with the Jewish people. You’ve got every biblical right to divorce after your spouse is unfaithful. I stayed with a miserable person for 29 years because I took my marriage vows seriously. But once she decided to step out on me that was it. Looking gback years later I see her infidelity as a gift, my life is so much better now without her. 😂

  • @wm7929
    @wm7929 Před rokem +16

    You missed a big one... Is the unfaithful ready for reconciliation? Are they showing any awareness of your hurt and pain? Are they unequivocally taking responsibility for the infidelity? Are they holding space for your hurt and pain? Are they there for you, and compassionately providing emotional support and emotional closure for the infidelity?
    The negative effects of divorce on children... This is your most valid point, and I believe the Lord will watch over my children. I'm not sinning if I leave the marriage.
    Are they a bad person doing a bad thing? Yes! The bible says we are all bad people. Rather, "good is as good does." By her fruit I shall see.
    Am I / the marriage attractive enough to want back? It is a good thought but ultimately not a question for me to answer. I address my issues for me and possibly a future wife, not for my unfaithful wife. She already chose another.
    This is a very good video, and I do appreciate the approach of looking for reasons to stay. We betrayed already have the reasons to leave.

      Hey there w m, Thank you for your comment. We completely understand your thoughts and concerns. You have EVERY right to leave the marriage if that's what you choose to do. We try to NEVER tell people what to do. However, we do try to help people understand what life will look like in 10 days, 10 months and eventually 10 years. Will you be happy with your decision to leave? There's no way to fully know. But if you believe there's even a small amount of good in your spouse, then the marriage may be worth fighting for. There is a time to eventually share all of your emotions with your spouse, to tell them how much they've hurt you, but if you are trying to save the marriage and your spouse is still pursuing another person, then that is the last thing you should focus on. The marriage broke down over time, and it will take time to rebuild it. Focusing on becoming the best version of yourself is the best thing you can be doing. And regardless of whether or not you save your marriage, if you choose to move on, then you will be the best version of yourself for the next partner.

      @@leilawiebe5092 Reconciliation only works when both parties meet each other halfway. A relationship where one party always gives and the other returns nothing is not healthy. Some wayward spouses only realise what they stand to lose when the faithful spouse threatens divorce. Others never realise the value of the person they betrayed and a few realise the mistake they made immediately and do everything in their power to win back and keep the trust of the betrayed spouse. Some people need to face the consequences of their actions the hard way and are enlightened years later just like the prodigal son (Luke 15).

      I've grown up around Narcissistic people and been in relationships with them. They never change unless they want to and put in several years of intense therapy. Most Narcissistic relationships end in a 3 ways. You either leave mentally & emotionally or leave in a body bag. Either they will break you to the point that you are a shell of your former self. Or they will cause you to become like them and turn into Evil Selfish Narcissists to survive....or like I said one of you leaves in a body bag and it's usually the victim of abuse. Narcissists are pure Evil so much so that even most therapists refuse to work with them because they will lie and try to manipulate therapists too. No person is worth putting up with Narcissistic abuse for its more damaging than physical abuse...bruises disappear ( not ignoring the mental affects of domestic violence) but the effects of Narcissistic abuse can last a lifetime.....in short..if you are able to safely then ...leave and never look back.

Why waste your life with someone who mistreats you and not only that , allows others too. This isn't live it's abuse disguised as love. You deserve better and will only be able to find better if you leave, if it's a fear that you will end up alone then (more than likely that won't happen) but even being alone and having good healthy friendships including with men just for company is better than where you are right now.

    My wife says, she feels anxious around me, stress, depressed. She doesn't feel good enough cause I made her feel that way at one point. (There are a lot of things that would take too long to say in here.) And even when I talk about things, the way she treated me that hurt me, and she says I'm putting her down and belittling her. "Breaking her down" and when she comes back and starts saying negative things, "I'm a bad person, I'm no good, I'm a bad mom."
    So I come back and tell her, "that's not what I said. I don't think that. I think the world of you, I think you're amazing."
    She says I'm trying to "trauma bond" her cause I tell her tho gs to break her down and come back and try to build her back up right after... I don't understand this.

    I was surprised reading such a lot of negative and bitter comments here. Never, ever, nothing, always...etc. People are changing from good to bad, and from bad to good. This is a fact. People are dinamic not static. The only thing that fixes us, the trauma. Trauma behaves as a black hole, catches the light and distorts the space. This is similar in the human soul. The betrayal trauma is so painful because it is similar to the traumatized early childhood. That is OK, that not every chating partner can develop, but a lot of can, and more marriage could healing from betrayal, than the divorce statistics show us.

      Leave her. If you did everything in your power to salvage the marriage and there is no meeting you halfway, then leave. Sometimes leaving others to face the consequences of their actions is the best thing we can do for them. That's what God does for people who spurn His love. He respects their choice and so should you.

      If you have a healthy intimate relationship where you are both getting your needs met he shouldn't do that. If he doesn't try to treat you like the women in the videos and is just watching but not acting out and treats you with love and affection you are just looking for a nick in his armor. I would agree that if he obsesses and crosses over from viewing to acting he may have an issue. Men are visual and appreciate the female form. From a young age many of this generation were exposed to beautiful women in Playboy etc.

      I would have a conversation with him about broken trust. He crossed the line and needs to demonstrate that he is working towards trust with you. Is he willing to give you access to all his accounts? Is he letting you hold him accountable with the interactions he has with other women? Without transparency and accountability, there is no steps to rebuild trust. Does he acknowledge the hurt and pain he caused and take responsibility for it? A humble and contrite spirit is a good sign. Arrogant and blame sifting, excuses is not a good sign. God bless you as you try to figure out the best way forward.

      While every case is actually unique, because of the people involved and their circumstances, they will share similarities with many other unique cases.

    A Divorce occurs long before the papers are signed and you stand before a judge. That event is merely the period at the end of the sentence.
    To think that your children will be traumatized or affected by the day of the actual divorce decree is disingenuous. The trauma they will bear on their shoulders is everything that occured in the months and years leading up to that day.
    You are placing too much emphasis on the event, rather than the path that leads to it.

    I chose to stay in my marriage, despite her traumatic betrayal. All in all it's been a successful marriage but twenty two years on it still hurts. It's easier to forget the betrayal when you divorce. Less so when you remain in the marriage. Being damaged physically, be it directly from physical violence or indirectly as a result of constant stress, these factors I can relate to. But being damaged spiritually, this seems a bit of a stretch. Rather let logic and critical thinking determine your views on spiritual matters. Frankly I find spirituality an overrated concept.
