If a girl has been cheated on
By Sarah
I have always believed that a relationship is two ways – it
needs equal work from both people in it. If someone decides to cheat on you,
they did the action, not you so the cheating is their responsibility and not
yours.
Do things that you love and before looking for love
again, love yourself first.

When we are in a relationship with someone, we trust them not
to hurt us. One of the biggest hurts that can come from a relationship is the
pain we feel if we discover that our partner has cheated on us. The reason for
this is we feel betrayal, every special moment looks like a lie and we start to
wonder if it is our fault to be cheated on like that.

If you find out your partner has cheated on you, it is okay
to feel angry but don’t let your anger destroy you or lead you to destroy other
things or people. Accept that you have been cheated on even if this is painful.
Ask your partner for the real reason they chose to cheat. If a person cheats
once, it is okay to give them a second chance but if a person cheats on you
more than once, it is likely that they are a serial cheater who will expose you
to emotional and psychological trauma and even sexually transmitted
diseases.
So think carefully about yourself and your future before you choose
to continue your relationship with the cheater. If you choose to stay, make
sure that you and your partner go for testing for sexually transmitted illness,
talk with your partner on how to avoid the cheating happening again, do not
revenge on your partner by cheating with someone else because that makes you a
cheat as well and two wrongs do not make one right. Forgive your partner and
once you have buried the hatchet, do not bring back the cheating incident as a
way to manipulate them, otherwise you may not have forgiven at all and should
consider leaving the relationship.
Leaving a relationship is not easy but once you have been
cheated on, you have to consider what is good for you in the long term. Once
you have left the relationship, leave the bitterness behind and focus on
rebuilding your happiness.
When you leave a relationship, check your health status to
make sure that you did not contract any disease or to be sure that you are not
pregnant. Surround yourself with people that you love such as family, friends
or even a pet.
