Cheating is an extremely common phenomenon in modern society. The culprit can be found in many reasons. However, it is necessary to realize that cheating can cause irreparable damage to the person who is cheated. This is also why family therapists and psychologists warn of these 5 irreparable things experienced by people who have been cheated on.
Of course, we can all make a mistake, but if someone makes the same mistake repeatedly, then it is not a mistake, but a choice. Then it's simply unforgivable, no matter how much you love them.
What does cheating do to a person?
1. Doubt yourself
No matter how high your self-esteem is, betrayal hurts you. It just changes you completely. You begin to question your own worth. You are looking for fault in yourself. You become insecure.
2. You no longer trust
You don't know if you can even trust anyone in your life. When you meet the right person, you will know that not all people are the same and that there are some people who truly deserve your trust and love.
3. Mental health problems
Cheated on, they may have some mental health issues like anxiety or depression. You might start thinking about how you'll never recover from this, but don't worry. You are not alone. There are indeed many people who struggle with the same problems after partner infidelity. And you need to know that you will heal and move on, just give yourself some time.
4. The person may begin to think that they cannot be loved
Just because one person betrayed you doesn't mean someone else won't love and appreciate you as you deserve. It wasn't your fault. You did nothing wrong. The person who hurt you did not respect or love you and that is the only truth.
5. Impact on future relationships
You will doubt the feelings and intentions of your next partner. You won't trust anyone. But when you and your new partner build trust together, you will finally be able to let go of your former betrayal and enjoy your new relationship.
