And this is what I was originally criticizing, that there isn't actually something that much different about a marriage that makes it more likely that they can resolve the problem. Your point of view that within a marriage is the only place it has some potential is already proven incorrect by the many cases of people who weren't married or together for a really long time and, yet, they managed to resolve their problems. 
Fair enough. I realize I wasn't using "I" statements, so it probably seemed narrow minded. Correct my original posts to personal statements for me.

No, there was no assumption about what should or should not be done. You specifically said "This is the mental picture you will deal with every time you're together in bed.". This is what I addressed, and my point doesn't rely on any assumption that something should be accepted or worked through.
Quote:
My point was that once the trust has been broken you can't magically move on and have it fixed. It will always be in the back of his mind. The image analogy was a visual representation of that.
I don't think anyone assumes that resolving the emotional issues that arise as the result of infidelity happens magically. Yet you're suggesting they can't be fixed at all, that such an image will always be in one's mind, that it will always be affecting him negatively, that, in order for those resulting problems to be fixed, it'd be some magical occurrence. Once again, this is what I criticized, and my criticism did not assume that someone should try to accept it or work through it. You suggested that, if he were to try to stay with her and resolve the problems, such an image would definitively haunt him, would not be resolved. And I pointed out that this would only hold true if either one did not learn to accept something and let it go, and/or that the image itself actually brought one pleasure. I don't think you've done anything to suggest that I would be wrong about this.
Quote:
But thanks for making broad assumptions about me and my past relationships.
Oh, you took my comment personally about the idea you presented? I wasn't aware anyone mentioned you or your relationships, and the only thing you said that I commented on didn't contain a single word about you or them. 
Quote:
Also with all the defensiveness in this thread by you I could assume that you are cheater and are just trying to justify your own actions.
Even if I had cheated in the past, it wouldn't necessarily mean that my comments in this thread would be an attempt to justify my own actions. The interesting thing is that you've already assumed this of me, despite the fact that you only speculate that you "could" do it, which is clearly evidenced by the fact that you have concluded that my contributions can be considered to be "defensiveness".  I don't consider it rude, though, I just consider it to be the result of a lack from your part to realize that this is a discussion about ideas. The OP is in a delicate situation and he asked for perspectives on what that situation means, in an attempt to gain insight as to how it would be best for him to take action. And, in this sense, when someone says "This image will be in your head constantly" regardless of his interest in resolving the matter, or someone says something like "If they were really sorry, they wouldn't have done it in the first place", letting their emotion distract them from the obvious fact that the whole concept of sorry means that it happens after something happens, I find an interest in criticizing what I consider to be errors in thinking.

Marriage or not, the important factor is you guys have been together for a year. The lovebirds phase usually lasts from 6 months - year. After that, shit gets real. Sounds like she's just not ready to commit. As much as chicks would like you to believe that they got "caught up in the moment" or some bullshit like that, they knew what they were doing when they did it and they had probably thought about it on a prior occassion.
It is extremely hard to "just get over" someone cheating on you and it's going to take a lot of work to do--on both your parts. If you guys were together for several years, I would say maybe try and work things out. But you guys have only been together for a year. Throw this one back I say. More will come along.

Man, I am in the process of breaking up with a girl I have dated for two years. I love her to death, but since she cheated on me I haven't been able to be the same partner that I was before. I can't trust a word she says anymore, and the weight of mistrust becomes very mentally and physically exhausting. The only time I could truly feel comfortable is when she was in my presence, otherwise I would feel anxious, assuming that she is always up to no good. Simple things like her getting a text would spiral me into a state of anxiety and anger.
I tried though - it has been a year since she cheated, and ever since I've been in a state of constant self questioning. I don't think trust can ever really be regained completely, at least in my case. It turned me into a paranoid controlling asshole, and now the only way to escape these feelings is to leave a relationship, that I have dug myself even further in!
It's your call man, best of luck in whatever you decide to do. It is painful, but think long and hard about your future and wellbeing. Do what is best for YOU. If you need to talk about it, definitely send me a PM!

I never considered why fireworks was such an adamanet douche in these cheating threads, I think you nailed it! 
I can only assume thats what you're referring too, as I've had him on nig for a few months now anyways. Shroomery has only gotten better since then

My viewpoint in this situation is one of reparations.
If the relationship is worth holding on to, do that. That said, nothing in this world is free.
If she cheats on you, she owes you 3X to 5X, possibly 10X. I think 10 is too high and 1 or 2 are definitely too low.
You should sit her down, explain to her that she fucked up and is going to have to:
a) accept that you will be having sex with 3 to 5 times the number of people that she cheated on you with
(optional) b) accept that you two will be watching a video of the encounters afterwards.
I'd put a GPS on the bitch's car to make sure I had an idea of where she was going and what she was doing. The right relationship is worth a bit of passive monitoring.

I had a friend that cheated on his girlfriend. They broke up obviously when he admitted to her about it. I knew them both mutually as friends and I know she was really hurt by it. He was equally devastated and expressed his guilt to her many times. After about 4-5ish months they eventually got back together but it involved many failed attempts from him at winning her back and many arguments between the two.
Now since they started dating she seems to never hold a complete trust in him and is always sneaking on him which thus creates an immense amount of friction between them. Honestly, I don't know if they'll work much longer.

Truth there, but us "dicks" act about the same if not more, ya know?
I just think it's hard, if not impossible for a relationship to work after trust is broken in that kind of way.

it can work if you like everyday reminders of someone elses dick in your girlfriend mouth and her enjoying his cum going into her mouth.
its sort of a turn on, but at the same time just completely fucked up and makes the relationship sort of a permanent stress dent in the relationship.

Good luck to OP though, please, if possible, let us know what you did in the end.

Yeah, I find it hard to understand why some people consider other dudes screwing their girlfriends as a turn on. I mean if you remotely have strong feelings for the girl then of course not. However, if there is an open agreement within the relationship ie "swinging" then that's the only possible way I see that as an okay.

Sometimes the forbidden or scary can be a big turn, but even people who get into swinging typically have issues at least during the first couple of encounters. It takes a while to get over years of socialization and a lot of trust that your partner will stay faithful to you.
