“Infidelity can never be truly forgiven—even if you stay together, the relationship is permanently damaged”
Agree
- Trust once broken can't be rebuilt
- You'll always have doubts and triggers
- It fundamentally changes the dynamic
- The betrayal rewrites your entire history
- Staying is just fear of starting over
Disagree
- People can genuinely change and grow
- Marriages survive worse than this
- Context and circumstances matter
- Forgiveness is possible with real work
- One mistake doesn't define everything
