When did dhe cheat? IF it was recently, this might haunt you for a along time. She told you, because she feels bad about it. She did it more than once though so it wa a choice. This is all up to you and your ability to forgive.

It's a very hard situation you've got, anyway if she really ask forgiveness sincerely, i mean it's not very easy to forgivr for what she had done is not a small thing, maybe you should compromise. Give her another chance, it is brave enought for her to tell the truth.

Apparently she now regrets her actions and wants you to forgive her and go ahead with getting married. You need to sit down and talk with her and try to ascertain whether she is likely to do this again at some time in the future.
After all, this is no small slip-up! There is a lot for you to think carefully about in all this.
