When love happens, you can be sure that a thousand and one other things accompany it, and one of that is heart break. On average, everyone goes through a heartbreak at least once their lifetime, and for some, it’s more than once.
There are several reasons why people cheat, and this is not restricted to gender. Both men and women are open to this possibility, however, for some, the effects are much worse than you can imagine. Heartbreaks are nothing anyone should go through, but when you find yourself in such a situation, what do you do? When you find yourself with a cheating partner, here are ways to get over him/her;
Forgive: Yeah, you may sneer at that word, but the first step to moving on, is finding a place in your heart to forgive your partner. The truth about forgiveness is that you don’t do it for the other person, but for yourself. When you do this, a little bit of the pain would be eased, and you can be sure that healing after that wouldn’t be as hard. Don’t be caught up in the events of the past.
Forgiveness doesn’t necessarily mean that you want them back, it simply shows that you value your state mind more than whatever silly action your partner might have taken to hurt you or the relationship. Forgive and let go, for your own sanity.
Get Closure: If you keep hanging around the block waiting for that cheating partner, then you are putting yourself in harm’s way. Getting full closure, is a step forward, in accepting the change that has happened and committing to making yourself feel better. Doing this would also help you define your actions with the person who took you for granted in the first place. Let them know you are no longer willing to sacrifice your heart on a platter to be feasted on anymore.
You don’t need to worry about the reason they did what did, all you need at that moment is to get over those moments when your heart constantly feels like popping right out of your chest.
Move On: It is pretty obvious to say move on right? But the truth of the matter is that most people never move on. Moving on would include totally healing and not using your experience in the past to affect your future relationships. It would also include not blaming yourself for your partner cheating, and most definitely, not trying to question they did it, because the bitter truth is that, it has been done, it cannot be undone.
If you like, you can move to a different environment to get your mind off everything, and in those moments, just focus on yourself, and all the wonderful things that you can do to make yourself happy.
No one ever said heartbreaks would be easy, but when you find yourself with a cheating partner, at that point, it is your peace of mind over every other thing, darling.
Have you ever been cheated on?
