After weeks of rumors and uncertainty circling the Twilight co-stars, it seems as if Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson have reunited. According to People, the couple met up in Los Angeles over the weekend of September 15. After Stewart’s cheating scandal with Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders, it was unclear what would happen to every twi-hard’s favorite celebrity couple. But friends of Pattinson’s “think they’ll be a couple again,” according to a source, who also says, “Moving on is easier said than done … and clearly harder than expected.”
How do you know if you can forgive your partner if they cheat?
Cupid’s Advice:
Forgiving someone for cheating can be a really tricky territory. They may apologize and you want to believe them, but you don’t know if you can trust them or not. Cupid has some advice on decoding whether or not you can forgive your partner if they cheat:
1. Have a talk: After your partner cheats on you, it is crucial that you have a long, serious discussion about your relationship at that point. You don’t need to talk about the details of them cheating, but trying to figure out why they did it might help you decide whether or not to give your relationship another try or to end it.
2. Think about forgiveness: Saying you forgive your partner and meaning it are two totally different things. If you think you can honestly forgive them for cheating and move on, then try your relationship again. But if you think that the cheating will haunt your relationship forever, the relationship won’t work. You need to dig deep and figure out what you are okay with before telling your partner.
3. See what your partner does: If they are serious about gaining your trust back and getting your forgiveness, they will probably act a little differently than they had before. They will do little things for you and try to always be by your side. Notice the way that your partner acts and try to figure out if his/her actions are genuine.
