Is it possible to come back from cheating? Will our relationship ever be the same or should I just give up now? There was no physical (that I’m aware of) but I’m so tired of feeling like shit and devalued. As much as I love this person how do I look past the infidelities?

it totally depends. you need to know what you need from them to trust them again (even if it's a long list), and they need to be 100% committed to earning that trust back and following your roadmap, recognising it will be a long road. if either of those pieces are missing then no i don't think there's a way back. but if they're both there then there is.
that said the most important thing is that you both want to fix it. if you're too tired and you're done, that's okay too. you don't owe them your effort to fix what they broke if you feel your heart can't take it anymore. i'm so sorry you're going through this. ❤️

Nope. Sry.
You deserve to feel loved and valued.
He isn’t the one

honey it's just not worth it. a real man will show you he's worth your energy, patience, time etc.. theres different forms / types of cheating, but still is what it is.
why be in a relationship w him if and when he doesnt shower u with affection and love
better to live with someone showing u he cares!!🤗💕🥹

For me personally it wouldn't work cause I am petty about stuff like that lol

Yes it is possible. I know couples who have been able to get past it and still have a good relationship. However your partner has to want it just as bad if not more than you do. You have to be clear with them about what you need from them moving forward. I wouldn’t give up too easily but don’t fool yourself either. I wouldn’t give up too easily but also make sure you’re being honest with yourself through the whole process.

I’ve seen a friends mom manage to stay in her marriage, I wouldn’t dare do it, the reason I have my stepmom is bc she left her cheating ex, the reason I have my amazing husband is bc he left 2 cheating exes, yeah I guess my friend’s mom got to keep her homes, not deal w/divorce or have to work & all that, but she was mean to my friend, it was like that anger had to go somewhere & if she wanted her marriage to work it couldn’t be aimed at her husband, the people in my life have left, forgiving on their way out & moved on with their happy lives not caring that they weren’t right for them, which I feel is healthier for all involved. I know me, I’m Demi, I’d immediately fall out of love once our bond broke & the resentment for them breaking our bond wouldn’t go away until I moved on w/my life, plus I’ve tried making a marriage work w/o having the bond anymore, it’s hard to be w/someone you aren’t attracted to anymore,it was a miserable time of my life,single mom life gave me my sanity back

I think it’s possible if he actually wants to and is willing to make changes. Everything cannot go back to how it was. Things have to change.
I’m a firm believer that people can change if they put the energy into it, have the right resources, and actually want to.
I would suggest going to couples counseling if you want to try to stay. If not, it’s totally okay to end the relationship! Only you know the right choice.
