Does anyone have faith in a long distant relationship?

after your spouse has cheated once or twice? is there still faith when you get over it and you both decide to move on with your relationship and build off of the mistakes he made…?

I think if a person has cheated once, a marriage can stilled be saved, but it will take a lot of work by both people to make it work. But if it has happen more then once, It shows that they do not care enough to make it work. The relationship just needs to end.

why do you say that? i say once a mistake twice a habit, but i learned to put it in the past and keep faith ONLY because he knows what he did was wrong and was not worth loosing me and a good relationship with the one he loves who has never cheated and never will

this changes the answer i would have to your other post, you don’t need to settle down with this young man. he can tell you that he knows it was wrong but that may not stop him the next time

yes i do understand that but i think actions speak louder than words and his actions show me that he is sincerly sorry and apologetic for his mistakes which leads me to think and have faith in our relationship still

If he is so sorry….why is the relationship a “long distance” one?

or even a “long distant” one…?

Whichever you meant….if it is “long distance,” he should be doing all HE can to meet YOU where YOU want to meet and bridge the gap.

If it is “long distant” as in you are saying that you are “distanced” (physically, emotionally) from each other now, then he should be doing all HE can to meet YOU where you want to meet and bridge the gap.

He’s the cheater, not you….

I have a friend who has been with her man for 10 years, and even though he says hes sorry, cries, begs on knees for forgiveness, buys her gifts. it is a repeating cycle for multiple times. all long distance does is provide him with the oppurtunity cuz you won’t be there to find out, but only you can make the decision. if you trusted him you wouldn’t have brought it up.

OK, I still say: if he was truly sorry, he would GO TO YOU!!! Not the other way around!

You are soooo convenient for him. You are his #1 chick….maybe. When you are around, you are. But in the meantime, he is playing. And he’s doing it while still keeping you around because maybe he thinks that you will be a ‘perfect wife….’ someone who will ‘look the other way’ for the duration of the marriage.

I guess this is when i say my fav “Everyone is opinionated” because i know our relationship better than the outside person and i dont agree with what you are saying, not saying i dont appreciate your input but i have my own beliefs just because of the simple fact that i am the one in the relationship and i know him better than you or anyone else that has dated him. but i do deeply appreciate everyones advice and opinions. thank you again
