But please what I don't get is why people confess about cheating when they were not caught in the act or afterwards?
It's okay owning up if you are found out, but if you ain't DOING IT ANYMORE..why confess afterwards? It never ends well.
Forgive and forget is a myth, you can always be forgiven but your partner never forgets and that's a crack in the wall of relationships. Once there's a crack, it's just a matter of time before the wall comes tumbling down.
