It really depends on the age of the children. It is my opinion that the matter of an affair is the business of the parents, and them alone until the kids are old enough to understand certain things.
If the kids are young, I would use a metaphor.
For example: You know your favorite doll, the one you never are without? Well, pretend you made a promise to that doll to NEVER play with another doll as long as you had it. Well daddy/mommy broke the promise to his/her doll, and is very sorry.
But like I said, it's really the business of the parents. Your kids will forgive you in time. That's what it takes, time. You can't rush forgiveness, you can't make it happen. Accept responsibility and condemnation for what you did as we must do with all our mistakes and move on the best you can. Your children love you and will understand things in time.
No. He lied to you about love. Sure, you can forgive him, but that won't fix what he did.
It depends. you have to decide if you will be better with him or without him, and whether or not you are prepared to forgive him.
Regardless of what causes the breakdown of a marriage, both parents have equal rights to their children. One parent having an affair doesn't necessarily put their children in danger, nor does it make them a bad parent. Making a bad choice that negatively affects the marriage doesn't change the fact that you are both responsible for your children and have rights to them.
yes if they have an a affair lol !!!
it symbolizes that he should totally let the children in
There is no forgiving him. If he puts his own kids aside for someone else he doesn't care. So I wouldn't forgive him.
The court care about what is in the best interest of the children and just because one parents had an affair does not mean they are unfit to parent. It can be shared custody or one get it. The court wants the children to have access to both parents. The affair will not be the thing that decides custody.
Time to end the marriage and move on to someone who will be a real husband.
It depends. Do you still love him. If you do, forgive him and move on. But make sure he stays away from that other woman. Good Luck.
Each individual woman is different when it comes to forgiving her husband for having an affair and it is a personal decision by that woman. Once that bond of trust is broken it is difficult for the wife to trust her husband and generally that mistrust turns into questioning the husband if he should be late coming home to where he is going and eventually some men will simply leave the marriage on that basis. Not only that, but the wife feels demeaned or sometimes unattractive because she can subconsciously feel she is unattractive or her husband wouldn't have found it necessary to have an affair. Of course is most cases this is not true and the husband would cheat no matter how attractive his wife is. If your husband has had more than one affair before it is more than likely he will have another one. If this is the first affair he has had then humans make mistakes and it is worth trying to resolve problems in your marriage by seeking out a good marriage counselor, but only if your husband is willing. If your husband refuses to get marriage counseling or does not want to give up the woman he has had the affair with or feels threatened by you to walk away from the affair then no, it is not wise to stay in such an unsettled and toxic marriage for the sake of the children. If you and your husband decide to dissolve the marriage then try to do it on a friendly basis for the sake of the children as children often blame themselves for their parents divorcing. Make sure you try to appear to be friends in front of the children and agree that your husband pays child support and has joint custody of his children so the children can have both parents in their lives. If you do not want to be quite so drastic as to apply for divorce you could try separating for awhile to see if you and your husband cannot work things out, but be sure the children get to see him or even stay with this father on weekends and some holidays.
He will not be forgiven if he had an affair outside marriage unless he repents, intends not to do it again, and God for forgiveness. Then God by His mercy may forgive him. It is per Islam teachings that a Muslim man (married or not married) can't, per Islam religion, have an affair with any woman (Muslim or non Muslim, single or not single) outside licit marriage per Islam religion.
yes
