Cheating becomes the most serious and unpleasant test for a relationship, which not everyone can overcome.
Having an affair calls into question the need to remain in a relationship with a person who so easily broke vows and promises.
However, some still find the moral strength to stay together.
Why is it so hard to save a relationship after cheating?
Trust
During cheating, a person breaks everything that he promised you before. This means that it is not so difficult for him to break his vows. As a result, every delay after work or a message received late at night will cause a feeling of doubt.
Trust will have to be rebuilt again through years of impeccable behavior.
Self-esteem
Anyone would like to know what was so "wonderful" about the stranger with whom they cheated. We start looking for potential advantages over us, we feel our own insecurity and helplessness.
However, cheating happens not only to beauty standards. But accepting this fact becomes even more difficult.
Disgust
It is difficult to have physical contact with a person who has cheated. It inevitably causes feelings of disgust and revulsion.
Therefore, there is no need to rush into intimacy: the wounds need to heal.
