Perspectives can definitely change overnight. I know mine did. "for those who are young (and not old like me), it may be easy to just walk away from a relationship that goes wrong. but when you're with the person you're going to spend the rest of your life with, and you've both made that decision for life... and the other screws up... i'd like to think love is more resilient, and forgiving and not to mention tough." - (papa) butch "Anyways, to say that is impossible, however, would deny oneself of the capability of truly loving and of truly being in love. It's like saying, "I'll only love you if you do this and don't do that." I'm not saying it wouldn't be hard and extremely difficult, but I am saying it is possible because of God who is love, and provides us an example of how to love." - richie "i think the whole point of love is to cover all sins. if you can't love someone enough to forgive them, then you might as well be cheating on them, too. because it's just as hard to be faithful as it is to trust someone, especially when you've gotten past the point of romance to the point of reality. and if you can't bring yourself to trust them, then you are just as much in question as they were for failing to be faithful to you. because trust without faithfulness doesn't work; but neither does faithfulness without trust. " - (mama) (mother goose) renee  I always wondered what made people stay in relationships where one person has been unfaithful to the other person. From what i've seen, they'd fight all the time, it felt like the past would never be erased and there was no trust.
I've recently been made more aware that provided the circumstances, it is not impossible to forgive and to love them all the same. Everyone makes mistakes. Not that i'm saying it's okay to cheat on your partner (because it's not!) But this whole forgiving the cheater thing is something I never would've thought twice about if it weren't for the opinions of those quoted above. I have a question though: What if they cheated on you with like...your sister or your best friend or something? haha. Okay, that's like extreme. but hey, what do you say to that? Do you show the same compassion? p.s. Zach Braff you've done it again.
p.p.s. don't worry...I think this will be the last blog about cheating, it's getting depressing. hahah. |
