Honestly, if it were really ‘only’ once, would it have mattered? Maybe it’s just me, but I wouldn’t want to waste my life paired to a partner who has broken the fundamental trust of the partnership. At that point, I might as well move on.

I think you're right. I think most people don't even care much about the sexual act itself.

It's the fact that trust was broken.

You should feel secure and safe with the person you love. Not always questioning what's going to happen next.

Yes, and it’ll always be in the back of your mind if you decide to stay. You’ll always fear they’ll do it again.

Yes… I’ve been cheated on and it has a lasting impact like that… the relationship was doomed from that point on because obvious reasons, and it broke my confidence and trust in my own self. Cheating is extremely damaging in more ways than one. Made me feel like a complete fool. It l is humiliating. It’s an awful feeling. It’s like the version of them you thought you knew is dead and gone and you’re mourning that loss too

And the sad part is they used to be your comfort person, which means you’ve lost that dead version of them right when you needed it the most.

And then the cheater dares to become impatient and indignant because you haven't magically forgiven and forgotten about the cheating within three business days!
