Is it wrong to forgive a cheater?

Drinking is a common excuse for cheating. However, that doesn't mean its a good one in any way. Some lie about it. Some actually did drink, but they were still irresponsible because if they drank so much that they did things like that, that's just as bad as cheating if they were sober. Catch my drift? He's trying to cover up his wrongdoings by using the drinking. He still cheated. It's a fact. It happened. There's nothing you or him can do about it. And another thing you don't know is truly what happened. He may have been so drunk, he had sex with them. You just don't know. This man needs to work with his alcoholism, which he obviously suffers if he's doing this so often. Try to talk to him about rehab. It's an excellent option. Drinking can only make people go down a deep dark hole and it can be very hard to get back out. If he continues this, the affairs will probably continue as well. The drinking is the number one focus, for both his health and the relationship. Now, if there ever comes a time where he's sober, watch his actions then. If he's still cheating, you know what he said about the drinking was a load of crap, and you need to let him go. No man like that is worth your time. Like I said, work on the drinking and see if that helps first however. Don't leave yet, but if you feel like you're being taken advantage of in any way, even when he's sober, you don't deserve that. Relationships do have rough times, but they're not supposed to be a game of sneaking and cheating and lying, and rumors. Just think about that. And an answer to your question would be : Yes, fighting for the one you love is neccesary, but there comes a point where you have to let it go. You decide what that point is, but don't let this man do this to you! Get him help and get him healthy. ( Or at least try to) Hope this helped and I wish you the very best of luck 'Lylan
