The consequences that happen when you forgive an infidelity

Many times, couples who have been through infidelity decide to give themselves another chance, without thinking about the consequences of forgiving cheating.

We have already talked about infidelity being one of the main triggers for a relationship to end once and for all, not all couples do this, some struggle to rescue the love they have left, if there is repentance on the part of one of them both, it is normal that they even seek help from professionals.

Then there are those couples who, as long as they are close to the person, do not care about the serious fault committed and forgive infidelity, without thinking about the consequences of ignoring this deception, because of course there is a reaction to that action, only sometimes , the damage is noticeable long after it is forgiven.

What happens if you forgive an infidelity of your partner? Many things that we sometimes overlook, after an "I’m going to change" speech, stop a little before forgiving that person who may not be speaking honestly and is only asking for that second chance for you to ignore his fault that may come back to commit

You value him more than you. To begin with, you must understand how serious it is to be unfaithful to you, a person who cheats on you with another, disrespects you, betrays your trust and incidentally breaks your heart, if you accept him again you tell him that it’s okay for him to humiliate you like that and you inadvertently give him control over you.

If you forgive one, you forgive all. Unless he has every intention of not repeating the offense (which you will notice through his actions) that man can go back to his old ways very easily, because it is enough for him to repent and that’s it, you forgive him again.

Your self-esteem decreases more and more . This control that he exerts over you makes him cheat on you as many times as he wants and makes you feel that you are not enough for him, that anyone is better than you and that is why he leaves with others.

You expose your health. Not only the psychological, but the physical because you don’t know if that man can infect you with a sexually transmitted disease, it’s something extreme, but you have to be careful with those issues.

You do not live in peace. You are thinking all the time at what time he will cheat on you and with whom, you live according to his life, watching him, wanting to control his movements, you are in a bad mood and paranoid, nothing that you would not have solved if you had not initially sorry… maybe.
