You can forgive them, for your own peace of mind, its good to forgive. Just because you forgive someone, it doesn't mean you have to trust them, or have anything to do with them anymore.

Nope not a chance.  I may sound hard-hearted, but a relationship is all about trust, commitment and fidelity.  Once that bond is broken, it's irretrievable and I could never trust that person ever again.

I don't know you will just be able to forget the affair, but you can forgive. I think you should keep yourself busy with things that you really enjoy doing. Keep your mind on positive things and do not dwell on the affair. Speak to your husband first and tell him how it made you feel and then let the negative feelings go. I know it is not that easy, but you need to try.
Good Luck.

Its' very hard to forgive that people rather let it pass.  And about forget I don't think you will ever do.  Our brain tends to recollect the events with a greater impact in our lives so forgetting is almost impossible.  Have chat with your husband and let him know how much he hurt you and what he did to your trust.  keep your mind  busy and try not to think about this and just let it go. Good luck

It is very difficult to forgive and forget an affair, but to make a marriage work, forgiveness is necessary. The first action must come from HIM. He is the one who did you wrong, so it is HE who needs to strive to win your trust back. Once he proves himself worthy again of your trust, and you see that he is very sincere, then it will make it easier for you to forgive. But remember: Once he changes his old ways, you cannot bring up his past mistakes in the future for it will only ruin your relationship. Forgiving MUST be coupled with forgetting. Forgiveness is ONLY sincere if you also forget.

Depends on the person and the situation. If you feel that they are really sorry and just made a dumb mistake, and you feel they are serious about never doing it again, then you should probably give them another chance. If it happens again, draw the line.

Give him the hard shoulder at first, even though you like him a lot. Because if you forgive him then hes going to think he can keep doing it even though you wont care. Thats what will go threw his head
