Having some form of couple therapy or marriage counselling, whether it's face-to-face or by email. What really wants to be said can be misinterpreted when people are communicating emotionally, therefore the counsellor can act as the interpreter between the two of you. Being in contact with the counsellor on a regular basis may make forgiving infidelity easier by allowing both you and your partner to hear and understand each other's underlying problems, wants and unsatisfied needs.
As well as couple therapy, individual counselling might be needed, either for the cheater or the victim. The cheater might need to work through some personal issues within themselves that may have come about from their past or environment. To enable forgiving infidelity the victim might also need individual counselling to help build their self-confidence as this can take a major hit after being cheated on.
Family and Friends
Another place to find support and help forgiving infidelity can be from those closest to you. If professional counselling is too expensive and you don't feel comfortable looking for help from people you don't know then the support of your loved ones may be the answer. You can get a different perspective from them on their views and opinions about whether you should carry on with your relationship or not.
Forgiving Infidelity can be easier than you think when you are surrounded by the right support network. Their guidance and advice can help you progress and improve your relationship or highlight to you that it just isn't working. In either case, try not to do this by yourself.
