~Forgive a Cheating Spouse??~

Would you or could you possibly forgive a cheating spouse? Why or why not??
Is there hope after infidelity?
Do you think SAHM's are more likely to forgive a cheating husband then WOHM's due to financial dependence/independence?

When I tried to trash my father or ask questions, my mother would direct me to him. Ask him your questions, Kristi. Talk to him about your anger, Kristi.
She was careful not to trash him around me and tell me I should respect him since he was my father.

<<Would either of you have even told your parents about the affair if you had decided to stay together?
Choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color. Choosing your socks by their character makes no sense and choosing your friends by their color is unthinkable.
My situation also made me realize my father had clay feet. . .he wasn't the demi-god I'd seen him as.
That experience also made it imperative for ME to let my children understand, as much as they can, that I am imperfect.
I try, very hard, to treat it factually with no emotion involved. It is tough. I call him a$$hole adn butthead and all sorts of names in secret, but never to my kids. I try to speak about him to them only in terms of his relationship to them, not in terms of his relationship to me.
It is a very thorny issue.

I think my last response to Kristi also addresses your question, but without a doubt. . .as a loving parent who has their own issues and has made mistakes.
