Should you forgive a narcissist after cheating on you? #narcissist

[melaniedawn]

You MUST forgive them for YOUR health and salvation. However, you never forget and never go back...also for your health.

Totally agree, my narcissistic girlfriend did this and I said goodby and wished here luck with here new love. To be honest I was happy because this was the perfect reason to safe myself 😉

Litreally thanking you for making this kind of videos you are eye opener for many, as a med student i know how much this is valuable!

[haddytaal]

Don't give them chances. Once they do it once and you let it go; it's permission for them to do it over and over again. They are awful human beings. They don't care about nobody but themselves, period 💯

[danieljohnson]

To forgive a demon is to *enable* a demon . They can't change, and furthermore, they aren't inclined to !

Never take them back after you know they cheated. They had no respect for you to do it. Taking them back makes them think your are stupid. Things only get worse.

He hid a PO Box, a bank acct, our tax returns, the name of the bank, he bought property without me knowing & built a house w/o me knowing...!!

Forgiveness isn’t for the narcissist, it’s for YOU! It doesn’t dismiss the cheating or abuse, however, accepting that it happened and moving on from it. Holding on to unforgiveness causes bitterness in the body which leads to cancer. We still hold them accountable for their actions and that doesn’t mean reconciling or breaking no contact Jesus said, if we want our sins forgiven, we MUST forgive our enemies. Healing is also about reflecting on how we played a part in terms of what you will allow will continue. God bless! ❤

You have very helpful advice and experience

[arhafrench]

NO. They want to play in your face and get you emotionally involved by selling you a dream, and then hang on you when the new relationship energy is gone, sucking whatever else they can get out of you as a backup choice until they get a better deal. What do YOU get as consolation or backup, when you find out you're with a devil?? All you can do is get out.

Forgiveness is for you, not for them. So, yes; forgive them. It frees you. Then, cut the cord and walk away. They are repeat offenders and simply do not change. A little pain now will save you a world of hurt later, and, who knows, maybe it will even save your life. I learned the hard way, and literally nearly lost my life because of it. Still recovering from a terminal diagnosis. Hopefully, someone reading this will benefit from my experience.

Forgiving others their trespasses is the Christian walk. We have ALL fallen short of the glory of God. But that doesn’t mean I leave my brain at the door of forgiveness. I can have boundaries and may never engage them again in the same capacity as before but I can forgive them and should.

[maggie]

If you do, you’re only feeding the monster. Narcissists aren’t grateful you’ve forgiven them. They’re excited because they’ve found another sucker. They’ll keep hurtling you to see just how stupid you really are.

My ex narc husband cheated on me many times. I will never forgive him. Not ever!

[milaeri]

Standard explanation is that he did it because I wasn't a good wife. I don't understand what a man need. I'm not a warm person and uncapable of giving love

[carolbell]

They don't consider porn cheating.

[JF]

No no no, forgive them AND serve them papers and move on. You have to forgive!

[KGFilly]

I forgave him. I understand it’s my fault for doing that. I didn’t realize who I was dealing with. Five affairs later, my husband discarded me like trash. I hate myself.

[janlouisemakiling]

He cheated on me 3 times.. the first two was cheating online with other girls.. But the last one? well he just had sex with the girl and it was an eye opener for me.. that I know to myself I don’t deserve to be cheated on.

I did not forgive him.. i forgave myself in believing in all the lies and move on

[amybritt]

I'm sorry, but IF they (sincerely) ask for forgiveness, you must forgive them, BUT !!! cut ties, and get out of the relationship.. You must forgive, and move on..The Lord say we must forgive everyone who hurts us IF THEY ASK SINCERELY, or... you will not be forgiven of your trespasses. The Lord says forgive 70x7. Doesn't mean you stay in the relationship. Leave the relationship, and cut ties. This will help you heal.
