If your husband cheated on you, would you stay and give him another chance or leave him and file for divorce?
Not sure how that can be answered just like that. Leaving n staying depends on a lot of things between the couple, their relationship, their situation, the affair n their individual personality. Some cares way too much about it n some doesn't at all, as some might see it only as a body thing. Some might see it as the ultimate betrayal. Though cheating is absolutely a wrong thing, how people react to it varies depending on a lot of things. It can depend on whether it was a one night stand or a love affair. Whether he / she will do it again if their partner doesn't react too hard, or just will do anyway. - Some forgives n stays, This can result in the following : The partner might never do it again. The partner might do it again n may get better at hiding. Or their partner might ignore the cheating as they don't want to face the drama or can't / won't do anything about it. - some can't forgive or move on or see their partner the same way n divorces, - some stays in the marriage without truly forgiving or moving in and ensures the partner's life becomes miserable - like a revenge or just stuck due to family or afraid to decide, but in turn their life also becomes miserable. Personally, I have seen all those situations as I have mentioned above. If you can't "truly forgive" n move on, don't bother with any other options. First try separation, use that time n decide what to do. But even then reconcile only if you can let go completely n move on (yes, people are capable of doing this too). Or else it makes everyone's life miserable, including the kids. So take time n decide carefully.
