Unfortunately, within a long-term relationship there can be both bright and sad moments.

But this does not always mean that you need to destroy the family.

Many people make the difficult decision to forgive betrayal. But promising to forgive and then doing so is not always possible.

What tricks will help with this?

Don't suppress your emotions

Betrayal is always accompanied by a whole storm of unpleasant feelings. If you simply "hide" them, then no one will feel better. Each time you will reproach your partner, treat him worse and destroy your emotional state.

Therefore, it is important to work through all your negative emotions so that forgiveness is real.

It is important to understand that it is worth letting the "traitor" speak out: you need to understand the reasons for which he decided to take this step. If you understand, then this situation will be resolved.
