writes: Can tainted relationships ever work? I was cheated on, we got back together and I'm really happy now, but does anyone know of any lasting, happy relationships that started off badly? I'm curious, as I reckon almost half of relationships have involved cheating at some stage, whether the partner knows about it or not.

It can work. As long as you don't hold a grudge and love him unconditional then it can work. It takes a lot and that is why you don't hear much about relationships that work after an unfaithful partner/partners. I remember a couple that had an unfaithful partner and they still are together but are they as happy as they used to be, I would say no. Trust is a life time task to maintain and only takes a second to destroy. If you feel that you two have moved past it and are happy then go for it, I commend you as I don't think I would be able to deal with such an unfaithful act. If it happens again well you should show him the door. Best of wishes.
