What are ways a couple can repair their relationship after infidelity has occured not only once, but multiple times? Consider that the betrayed partner will never be able to look at the betraying partner the same..

Sometimes it’s sad when they stay for the kids.. ends up toxic both cheating because it was never healed.

I think it takes a lot of work on both sides to heal whatever led to all the cheating in the first place.

I believe you’re just better off cutting the cord and the losses. Start over, show kids healthier path and not what that type of toxic marriage it ends up being for both of you & the kids. If no kids, just move on. Why would you subject yourself to that ?

Multiple times? If you want to stay with a serial cheater, you have two options:

1) accept and turn a blind eye for as long as he doesn't neglect his role and treats you well.

2) nip his affairs in the bud by suspecting, controlling, threatening and manipulating him. Catch them in flagrante delicto, scare and humiliate his side chick as well. Then make him feel guilty on a daily basis. Enjoy the drama.

There is no repairing it. Leave and stay single. Everybody will cheat on you eventually, what's the point of being in a relationship at all in 2023.

Once someone knows you're willing to accept the cheating, what is the point of stopping if you will stay anyways.

There is no getting over it, but you may want to get under someone else to even it up a bit, if you still want to be with the cheater.
