He can never regain my trust
Annabel Onwuchekwa
It takes years to build trust. You slowly begin to know somebody; you become friends; lovers, then you get married. Marriage is when two strangers that came together as a couple to make a home begins to show their true characters. As a person, I cannot forgive my partner if he engages in extramarital affairs and he can never regain my trust. Even if I try to forgive, that trust is gone for life. With the trust gone, if he makes a statement, I would interpret it into 10 places. If he makes a move, I would doubt it. The worst thing you can do to your partner is to cheat on them. I can decide to stay (in the marriage) to keep my home but everything will change emotionally.
