Catholic AnswerTo be a Catholic priest means that one must have a great love for Our Blessed Lord, and His mother. In addition, one must want to give up his life in service to others. In becoming a priest you are saying that you willing give up your life for Our Blessed Lord to work through you for the salvation of others. You are giving up a family, a private life, private interests, etc. to serve Our Lord in your fellow men.

Normally, you need to forgive people, including a "person who cheated on you". If this is your spouse, then you need to speak to a priest in order to start the healing process. It this is not your spouse, then I would question your use of "cheated on you".

What sacrament does not need a priest to give the sacrament?

There are actually two sacraments which don't require a priest: The first is Baptism. Any person (even a non-Catholic) can baptise a person as long as they follow the requirements for it to be valid (ie, pure and natural water, say the right words, have the right intention). The second is Marriage: While the Church strongly encourages Catholics to marry in the presence of a priest (and to have a wedding Mass, if both prospective spouses are Catholic), strictly speaking, a priest is not needed. The "ministers" of the sacrament are the couple who are marrying. Answer: I strongly disagree to the above answer. Both the sacraments mentioned above need to be administered by a priest (or a deacon), but not by any lay person in the Roman Catholic faith. A Deacon can administer the sacraments of Baptism, Matrimony and Anointing of the Sick. For the rest of the four sacraments (Communion, Confirmation, Confession and Holy Orders) you need compulsarily a priest or a Bishop
