cocods13 Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 my boyfriend of 2 years cheated on me and claims he was too drunk to remember, and i told him i needed a break to think about things.....my question is..how long of a break do i take before seeing him again....i dont want to forgive him so easily that he thinks it will be ok to do it again....and i want the break to be long enough so he can realize what he will lose if he cheats again? I do eventually want to give him a 2nd chance Im so confused, does anyone have any thoughts?
kween321 Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 To be honest you should just get rid of this scumbag for good. But in reality it's not that easy. I know, because I've been through the same thing. My ex of 2 years cheated on me while he was high on crack. Using drugs and alcohol as an excuse for cheating on someone is total BS. I gave my ex a second chance after no contact with him for 2 months and I even had a new boyfriend. Spending time apart from my ex did not fix our problems. I was still very angry about what he did to me and I still wasn't satisfied with his excuse. Simply taking a break is not going to magically fix this relationship. There is no right amount of time apart from this guy that will make you feel any better about him cheating on you. If you think that by not seeing him for a little while is going to teach him a lesson, you can probably think again. Why wouldn't he just go off and shag some more chicks while you's are on your "break". He obviously had no regard for you when he decided to cheat on you so he mustn't think he has much to lose.
