Well, Since bible says we should forgive, I would suggest you forgive her. But I tell you, no woman tries that with me, She's gone forever! I'll forgive her tho, but still send her packing. That's me

Are you a Christian?

If yes, remember the Lord's prayer

... and forgive our trespasses as WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO TREPASS AGAINST US...

If you don't forgive people who offend you, GOD WILL NOT forgive you.


Really??
.. This has nothing to do with "XTIANITY" but lets even debate the christian side of it. Even JESUS gives you the option to choose either to 4give or not to forgive..

JESUS said and i quote him ""anyone that divorce who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness..... Mt 5:32


Infidelity is an irreparable breach of trust, although we aren't perfect, but be very sure if she does it she's gonna do it again

Should a husband forgive his wife caught red handed with a guy on top of her? Yes if the guy can look past it and move on with his wife.

Would I forgive her if she were my wife? Absolutely f**king not! The sight will forever hunt me! Actually, I’ll probably be in jail by now for acting on my impulse.

Should my wife forgive me if she caught me cheating? I hope so but will understand if she does not.

Isn't that hypocrisy? Sure it is but nobody said life was fair.

The question would be best answered by a man in the aforementioned situation.

For me, I can't say til I get married nd it (hopefully does not) happen(s).

Why should it be any different for any gender?

EXACTLY. NEVER QUITE UNDERSTOOD THE BIG DEAL ABOUT MARRIAGE MYSELF. PEOPLE THROW THIS LAVISH CELEBRATION FOR PEOPLE GETTING MARRIED. SHOULDNT IT BE THE OPPOSITE ? YOU SHOULD BE MOURNING FOR PEOPLE GETTING MARRIED. THEY ARE BOTH GOING INTO PRISON.

Mynd_44: I believe that the same reason why a woman forgives her husband is the reason why the husband should forgive his wife. Now that is just a belief.
Now in practical terms, I will forgive her and still get a divorce and forget by not remembering I was ever married to her. I expect her to do the same thing if I cheat.
You're not yet ready for marriage.Have you ever thought of the effect of divorce on children?

Remorseful?
Big laugh. Would you not be if you were caught red handed?
Are armed robbers not remorseful when they are caught?
C'mon man.
The problem with we Africans, perhaps especially Nigerians, is the we always put sentiments where they do not belong.
We always put the square peg in the round hole.
For a woman to commit adultery requires long serious forethought. Before a woman contemplates such actions, she has to mentally damn her husband and convince herself that her husband deserved the damnation and humiliation.
Secondly, by the time the husband had discovered, she would have been doing it for a very long time.
Thirdly, once a cheater, always a cheater.
Fourth, if you ever ever forgive a cheating wife, you are forever doomed.
You will drop to minus zero in her eyes.
You would have given her all the powers she only dreamed of. She will completely emasculate you and turn you into a vegetable of your former self.

Let god do the forgiving for that kind of stuff. You are not god. You are human.
I totally agree as long as it applies to men too

It has everything to do with Christianity!

Yes, Jesus 'gave' us this option...

BUT remember He forgave the adulterous woman when everyone wanted to stone her.

The issue I have is that a lot of men are not forgiving because they are not Christians or do not believe in God; they would not forgive because of ego and culture. These same men that can't forgive a cheating wife will 99.9% of the same expect their wives to forgive them or have been forgiven by their wives in the past.

It is not really their fault, it's the women who feel that their lives wouldn't go on without the tag 'Mrs.'

Why would an adulterous wife want to be with the husband anyway?If the man can not satisfy her,let her move.Unless she is being adulterous to support the family in desperate situation,including the man.

More like knowingly marrying an ashawo without portfolio.

jeffizy: @Plaetton ,
Marriage is not like eating yam where you drop the yam when it's too hot to chew!
Where else will i as a "Nigerian" put sentiments if not in my marriage? If it's about pegs and holes, we will all be "happily" divorced.

When you say divorce is the only option, have you thought about the thread that goes beyond the needle?
I mean kids, documents binding ,ventures you both share, years put into the marriage, etc!

While it's not a worthy act, there are still various options open to be explored. Corrective and punitive measures of course.

May i ask you this question. If you as a man got caught, will you suggest your wife divorce you?

*Wow, nice one bro.....You're a good xtian.
Could u pls gimme ur wife's FB name or fone no? I would like to phuck her, knowing fully well you would 4give her.

Gender is a whiteman lauguage , in india woman pay dowry; that is culture. This not disrespecting but we use gender equaliity to devalue our being. Once a thief is always a thief.
