Forgiveness involves willingness to look beyond the problem and see what may lie past it. It involves understanding and accepting our part in the situation, and the ability to empathize, to a degree, with the person being forgiven. It is also, to a great degree, learned behavior. A child who is brought up in a gentle, forgiving atmosphere that fosters understanding will be able to practice forgiveness more readily that one that had the example of emotionally abusive, blaming parents who cherish grudges and feuds.

Resentment -- the opposite of forgiveness -- is like drinking poison and then waiting for the other person to die. Forgiveness is for you, not the other party. It allows you to move beyond that nasty feeling in your gut and live freely.

He cheated 10 years ago and tells now do i forgive him?

Being together over 10 years is amazing and maybe he needed to come clean , so he could move forward -- It sounds like his guilt was really coming to a head .Even though you are in shock and lost by what he told you , I think you should if you can forgive him , which I totally understand your hurt and pain .And he should understand how this has affected you and he needs to be man enough to listen and learn until you get past this .Great Luck to you
