There is one question going on in your mind now that you've learned your husband cheated. Can your marriage survive it? It's playing over and over like a broken record from days long past. It's keeping you up at night and you have no idea what the answer really is.
Of course, way back in the far recesses of your mind there is another question persistently making its presence felt. It's not the full-on drumbeat question of survival for your marriage but it is an equally valid question that you really need to take the time to find the answer to. Do you want your marriage to survive?
Cheating is a big deal. It's not forgetting to call when he's working late so that you hold dinner. It's not getting caught up with the boys and forgetting to call home. It's something big and not all women are able to forgive their husbands for cheating. There is nothing wrong with that or with you for not being able to forgive that action. There are times though, when it would probably be best for you both not to even consider forgiving it. Everyone needs a line in the sand.
Here are a few times when you really might want to consider walking away from a cheating husband.
1) He has cheated multiple times with multiple women. If this is a pattern that keeps being repeated then the odds are good that he's not going to change. There have been a few high profile repeat offenders when it comes to cheating on their wives in the past year and those relationships where the man cheats multiple times have a much more difficult path to overcome in order to recover. If you can't live with his cheating and he's cheated many times, it is probably better for you both if you walk away.
2) He doesn't seem sincerely sorry. If he doesn't seem sincere then it's possible that he isn't. If he seems sorrier that he was caught than over the fact that he risked your marriage and hurting you by being with another woman then there are bigger problems than you may realize in your marriage. He should be as devastated that you found out as you are because he knows that you've been hurt. If he isn't feeling pain for you then perhaps he doesn't love you as much as you deserve to be loved.
3) There is abuse in the marriage. If there is abuse in the marriage, then cheating is just another way he has of punishing you. Things are not going to get better if you give him another chance. He's just going to look for newer and more twisted ways to cause you pain.
But, if these things aren't happening in your marriage, even though your husband cheated, there is still time to
get your ex back and save your marriage. It's really possible to save and may very well be worthwhile.
