    Would you forgive a drunk cheater?

    I think I could forgive someone for cheating depending on the circumstances. That being said, I would find it a lot harder to forgive/accept a partner who drank to the point of being drunk on any level.

    A few glasses of wine at a dinner party or relaxing in the summer with a beer or two is one thing. But once you're no longer a kid living the college party life, there's really no excuse to get drunk on a regular basis.

      I used to when I was young, have this saying " If you love someone, set them free, if they come back to you, they're yours, if they don't they never were" and, so in that, I also realised "youth" and that, boys will be boys.

      Basically, I never got jealous and my first boyfriend did, but it didn't bother me, because it was me he kept coming back to..

      There was an element of power there for some reason.

      Today? I can visualise, drunk, hormones, flirting, men. But, the type of man that would act that way in my opinion? One that isn't happy at home and so, therefore, feeds of the attention, then gets himself into trouble.

      So, no.. I wouldn't because it would clearly tell me my worth in his world.

        Exactly what I have in mind.

          I'd forgive a lot of things - once. Drunk or not doesn't matter to me, I accept that people make mistakes and deserve second chances. (but not 100th chances).

          To me, cheating doesn't matter at all - but I'm considering other bad mistakes.

            I would not forgive drunken cheating because, let's face it, even when we're drunk, we're still perfectly aware of what we're doing (unless we're on the verge of passing out).

                  I might "forgive" him in a case that you described (and I personally DO consider making out cheating as well. I'm pretty strict in this regard)... but I would never get over it, and a break-up would be imminent. Mainly for my own mental health and sanity.

                  I know this from a previous experience. I never got over some things he had done, and it just ate away at me more and more the longer I was with him.
