Go: Once A Cheater Always A Cheater

If you believe the old adage, sticking around is giving him the go-ahead to do it again. Khloe gave Lamar another chance and as soon as she did, mistresses started coming out of the woodwork.

Stay: People Change

Everyone makes mistakes. Is it wrong to want to hold on to the life you built together and give him the chance to show you he’s mended his ways?

Go: There Are Kids Involved

Stay: There Are Kids Involved

Stay: You Took Vows

You promised to love him in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. This is definitely one of those bad times.

Go: He’s A Liar

K. Michelle said the lies were the final straw: “I can forgive a lot but a liar is a coward to me. I don’t respect a coward, so we can’t rock.” If he lied to your face and made you feel guilty when you had suspicions. Can you ever trust him again?

Stay: He Fessed Up

He was acting funny and when you called him on it he confessed. He says it was a mistake and he’s sorry. Can you still grow together if the trust’s still intact?

Go: You Deserve Better

You could’ve cheated but you didn’t. Don’t you deserve a man who loves you too much to want to stray?

Stay: Do Most Men Cheat?

According to the statistics, around nearly a quarter of men have at least one affair in a relationship. If you leave, could you just be trading in one cheater for another?

Go: Will He Ever Be Yours?

If you decide to stay with a cheater, you run the risk of sharing him with one woman or another for the rest of your relationship.

Stay: She Can’t Have Him

Not every woman will sit back and watch a woman take what’s hers. Tasha Marbury stood by her husband and paid off the mistress rather than let her in on the life and wealth they’d built together.

Stay: You Can’t Imagine Life Without Him

He’s your emotional and financial rock. You’ve been with him so long that it’s hard to imagine what your life will look like without him.

Go:Are You Settling?

Is staying with a man who has cheated on you before selling yourself short? Are you signing up for years of unhappiness that you could avoid if you just moved on?
